you win some you dim sum!

so in college i was located pretty darn close to canada. however it seems that i only went to three destinations: robson, granville, gastown. i hadn't even been to stanley park or granville island until a couple years ago! when i go now i try to expand my vancouver experience..... this time i ate my way around....

dim sum in richmond @ kirin - so i know i am totally late on this train and i've only tried one BUT it is the best dim sum i have had. no carts but this stuff was made fresh to go and i would trade that any day. i was disappointed not to see the "terrible asian" drivers but hey maybe i was one of them....

in order to walk off the dim sum we wandered around yaletown during the day, the only place except for the salons that had signs of life was this oysterhouse. after a day of shopping and a little evening freshening up we went to check it out. the atmosphere was boisterous and lively. the food delectable. the wine delightful. whether with a friend or with a date, go and enjoy.

what did make me sad about this trip, was going shopping. instead of feeling like everything was 20% off.... i knew that everything was worth what it said......boo to falling dollar boo on you. *sigh*
