my vacation in vancouver - eat, eat, eat

we've spent 7 days in vancouver, the main purpose was to attend simon (tony's cousin) & his wife victoria wedding banquet on july 4 (saturday); that was a beautiful banquet with very yummy food, victoria was so pretty, looked like a movie star

we kept eating from day 1 the dim sum lunch to the last day, also dim sun lunch, never disappointed with all the good food, only 1 concern border me, i would gain lots of weight after the trip ;P

too much food, can only highlight a few of them :

- japanese noodles in the food court in aberdeen centre, believe it or not, even the noodles are yummier than the food court here, =(, ate a lot;
- port jerky, yesssss, i eat the pork jerky from bee kim heng only, all my vancouver friends & relatives know that they have to buy me the pork jerky from the same store or i don't see them ;D
- a tiny japanese restaurant in downtown, it's different from the traditional japanese restaurant, it's still traditional, but serves in small dishes, a bit like chinese dim sum, they have the hand written manual and change from time to time for the seasonal and fresh food; and the price was good

sorry to write so much about the food, personal opinion, i found people in vancouver spend a lot of money in eating & living, but don't care much in clothing .... ?? i shopped a bit but didn't find too interesting, and still bought some tees & jeans ^_^

btw, the hotel we rented was riverrock casino resort, a suite with king size bed & sofa bed, very nice & clean. highly recommended =)
