Sherman's Food Adventures

As you know, Vancouver has a few days of rain a year...  In fact, an average of 169 per year!  So when you feel a little blue sometimes, especially during the months of October - April, I don...

There are just some restaurants I haven't revisited for quite some time and one of them is the popular Ask for Luigi.  Yes, it has been 10 years since I've dined on their Michelin-recommended ...

With all the different versions of curry around the world, it is pretty hard to choose a favourite.  I personally love them all in their own way as they are all unique.  One of the most appro...

While I was in Montreal last year, I sadly didn't get a chance to meet up with Sexy Mexi.  But she was in town in August and had some time to meet up!  We decided to check out Bar Corso on Co...

When I was dining at Bravo, I noticed Zab Bite across the street.  Honestly, I had some idea what the place was, but wasn't all that familiar.  I got to try the place out for brunch (that the...

I've seen B House featured on a few IG reels and stories in the past, which definitely intrigued me.  The eclectic menu isn't easily categorized as it jumps from one Asian cuisine to another...

I've been meaning to visit Bravo for quite some time.  With its Vanmag win as the best new restaurant, I felt it was a place that I needed to try ASAP.  Located in the former Ubuntu Canteen ,...

In 2021, I had ordered takeout from the original Fighter Chicken on East Broadway at Renfrew.  It was actually a deal from a food delivery service and I scored the whole meal for cheap.  Mind...

I've always wondering how Starbucks Reserve would fare at their Main Street location when it first opened.  Well, it didn't take long for the experiment to end.  Whether it be too niche of a ...

Nearing the end of our quick trip to LA, we were not super excited to travel too far for food.  So we ended up heading somewhere close by while also being tasty.  This brought us to Torimatsu...

Back to our regular programming, we ventured into DTLA for some highly-recommended eats.  Located along the border of the Fashion District and Skid Row, we found Holy Basil where they are dish...

Sometimes, even while on vacay, you just might want to go basic with something less expensive and also less heavy.  This was the case here when Viv and I decided to just grab some Vietnamese...

We do far too much Asian food while travelling and at home.  I guess there is something comforting about it.  Well, there is a different type of comfort food that we don't normally have the op...

For all the times we have visited the City of Angels, we have never hiked up to the Hollywood sign.  I guess it just might be that we were always there during Summer and it would be uncomforta...

This trip to Los Angeles did not involve much planning or research done into which restaurants we'd be visiting.  Normally, I have a schedule of where we would be eating every day!  But being...

We've been trying to visit Langer's for quite some time.  However, every time we have been in L.A., it just hasn't happened.  This time around, it was only Viv and I, without the kids.  Hence...

On my previous visits to LA in 2019 and 2022, we ate at a lot of places but never got to hit up Holbox.  It came highly-recommended and in fact, has recently just been award a Michelin star. ...

Meeting up with Lola and Scout in Seattle is always a treat.  If I haven't told the story before, we met them on an Alaskan cruise over 10 years ago.  I was excited to do cruise ship trivia, ...

This food adventure started by us being totally baffled as where to eat for lunch today.  Yes, that happens and especially when we didn't do any research, it made it just a bit harder.  We tr...

Here we go with another nearby restaurant that I have passed over and over again, but I just have not stopped to dine there.  The place is Suren and I've actually stared at the place many time...

Remember from my last post where I mentioned that most Omakase experiences run you $250+ per person in the Lower Mainland?  Let's talk about one of those shall we?  Viv and I recently visited...

It seems to me that there are places that offer Premium Omakase experiences in Vancouver more than ever.  Maybe our palates and experience has levelled up to the point where we can appreciate ...

Here we were again at Toloache Mexican Kitchen, but not for their brunch.  We were here on a Thursday where drinks were flowing and little bites were being dished out by the kitchen.  So why ...

Here we are at Published on Main...  for the 8th time.  You might be wondering why I keep coming back to the place right?  Is it because it is has a Michelin Star?  Believe it or not, that ...

Here we go with another restaurant in a strange location.  You know the type, ones that you'd find in a back alley, in a residential area, at a gas station etc...  We made our way to one of th...
