when i look at you

Exams are finally over! Despite summer school starting in a week or so, I’m so happy to be done. This exam period was by far the worse one I’ve ever experienced.. there was honestly no exam I felt good about afterwards. Good thing my marks weren’t that terrible during the term or else.. =\

Anyway, Easter weekend was awesome and food-filled. Jees, I don’t even remember doing anything other than eating, and more eating. AYCE sushi, two easter dinners and pho. And.. probably other stuff that I forgot to take pictures of.. well other than the cupcakes!!

In no particular order..
After AYCE sushi (I forgot what the restaurant was called… the price and quality of the sushi was really good though!), we headed towards Yorkville to grab some Summer’s Ice Cream [see post] that I’ve been craving since last summer! This time it was a bit underwhelming but I still love it none the less! Perhaps it was the flavour I got, which I don’t even remember the name of anymore.. Still super creamy!


Pad Thai from Thai Express is one of our favourites. The one at Markville Mall doesn’t do it justice though! The Chicken Souvlaki from Mr. Greek is also one of our favourite, though I’m sure it’s more of mine than his. I love the potatoes and rice, along with the tzatziki sauce- its like heaven! Relaxed food court lunches :D

Easter dinner 1: I didn’t take pictures of the actual meal.. Here’s one of the cakes we had for dessert. I, myself, didn’t try this one but isn’t it cute how there’s a cake just for Easter?

His cousin’s house is so beautiful, the table we sat at had a tulip centre piece. Ahh, I’m such a flowers girl.


Pho at Pho 88 (Warden & Steeles location) is also one of our favourites. Yes, if you’ve noticed the trend, we do go and try to eat all our favourite foods when he comes back – even if it’s just for three days!

Because we’re such picky meat eaters, we order the BBQ Chicken Pho. The chicken and pho come separately so the chicken still has crunchy texture to it. I prefer this way better than the just the regular Chicken Pho! This soup base tastes as good as the regular beef pho.. not sure if it’s the same though.

Cupcakes decorating, so fun but so messy!


His cupcake decorated… The dinosaurs are attacking the fish and pigs apparently. So silly!

Aww, he made the letters and his sister made the heart. hehehe

Easter Dinner 2: After a long ride to Cambridge, we jumped around on their cousins’ trampoline to burn off some energy. Then it was food time! Looking at the pictures now makes me so hungry!

I love how my potatoes fill up a quarter of the plate. I love potatoes!! Woops, top left corner are potatoes too (scalloped potatoes), so half the plate….. haha. There was also turkey and chicken, but obviously… potatoes > meat.


Gorgeous cupcakes for dessert!! I couldn’t get over how pretty they were, home made by their cousins too! These definitely topped the ones we decorated earlier… hah

I could really use some cheesecake now…. mMMm.


So summer’s here! There’s going to be lots of exploring places and trying out new restaurants and foods. That means more food pictures and reviews! So excited!

(...I tried tagging this post 'food' times three, only one shows up. :()
