Easy stuffed roasted peppers for a light dinner. I stuffed the peppers with a mixture of quinoa, chickpeas, peppers, garlic and onions and a coconut chili sauce and roasted it in the oven. With a candied salmon, blueberry and goat cheese salad on the side, it was a delicious meal.
Alex, Lily, Peter and I had a nice Sunday brunch at House Guest, a new restaurant in Gastown. The dishes ordered at our table included the Croque Madame - basil & goats cheese bechamel, copa, tomato, hash cake, with a gruyere crust and a fried egg on top, as well as the Lobster Cake Benedict with tomato bruschetta and bearnaise. I have been to House Guest for dinner before, and my favourite thing on the dinner menu is the crab tater tots... yes... tater tots that are stuffed with crab. Amazing.
A little bit of my amazing bites of 2011... again, thank you to everyone who has supported my blog and left such kind comments and sent kind emails to me in this year. I hope everyone has an amazing New Years and I wish the best for everyone in 2012. Happy New Year! x
I have been to Two Chefs and a Table a number of times (see here and here), and this nice breakfast on a Saturday morning was as delicious as ever. This time I got a savory crab benny, while Lily got the fluffy buttermilk pancakes with the vanilla butter. A little sneak peak into what she was wearing as well :)
Lunch at Acme Cafe on Sunday, a little place in Gastown. My friend and I both got the Veggie sandwich, which consisted of goat cheese, portobello mushroom, peppers, zucchini, sprouts, and sun-dried tomato basil mayo on a panini grilled Ciabatta. Ryan got the Ciabatta grilled cheese with cheddar, swiss, brie, and a cranberry-Grand Marnier relish - I happily accepted his half of the sandwich and enjoyed every bite. Each meal came with a side of broccoli almond slaw and chips or soup. If you're ever in the area, be sure to try this place out!
