Trixi’s Crepe & Coffeehaus in Vancouver
I was walking around the Cambie Village on a photo walk and was craving for some dessert. I decided to visit Trixi’s for the second time. During the first visit, I tried their savory crepe which was very enjoyable. The owner was very hands on, making most of the crepes.

After having lunch at the Aberdeen Mall food court, I was craving something sweet. It was time to see if Qoola is worth all the recent hype. Qoola makes healthy and fresh frozen yogurt from 100% natural ingredients. They are an eco-friendly company with initiatives to reduce waste by offering biodegradable, compost-able and recyclable products.
Qoola offers a trendy, vibrant and refreshing decor which matches pretty well with their slogan - “Pure Heart + Pure Body”. This location has been open for less than two months so everything is shiny and new. Thumbs up to the establishment!
July 17, 2009 | Danny | Comments 1Strawberry Season in Richmond (W & A Farms)
UPDATE (07/02/09): Strawberry season is over! 
Everyday on the way to work, I pass by W & A Farms, a local grower of fruits and veggies. They are located on the northwest corner of Westminster Hwy and No. 8 Road. Each year, the strawberries they have during strawberry season are sweet and very tasty!
W&A Farms has two ways of getting strawberries: The U-Pick method, and the pre-picked method.
Their U-Pick stand is on the south side of Westminster Hwy just across the road from the actual W & A Farms’ barn. When you drive into the parking area, make sure you roll up your windows, we almost choked on all the dust that flew up as we rolled into place! The U-Pick is basically a small stand run by two guys with a giant field behind them. The rate is $2 per pound with a minimum $6 charge. They’re open everyday from 9am to 5pm, and the latest they will allow you to start picking is 4:30. We didn’t have time to actually do any picking ourselves, but maybe I’ll come back on the weekend. Instead, we went accross the street to buy some pre picked strawberries.
