Weekend Brunch at Sugarbowl!!! Been wanting to go here for a few years but always seemed to end up elsewhere 😂 glad I finally did 😁 Ordered their #frenchtoast and thought it was pretty different but delicious! They use a brioche bun as the base, top it off with a berry syrup & powdered sugar, and some creme fraiche 😊 (at Sugarbowl)

Late post but had #ChickenWaffles for the first time at @thecommonyeg on my food date with @viviixcv 😍😍😍 at first I was all like "chicken on waffles doesnt make any sense" but my coworkers were right when they said "but after you try them, nothing will make more sense" 😂 #changedwoman #trysomethingnew #foodadventure #fooddate #foodies #ilovechickenwafflesnow #fatpeopleproblems #yegeats #sundayfunday (at The Common)

And here's the Taiyaki mentioned in yesterday's post! I've always wanted to try these as I always see them in anime 😅 but I think the fact that they were shaped like a fish really threw me off as to what I imagined they were/tasted like. Turns out they're a kind of pancake/waffle batter pressed/grilled into a fish shape with a filling! Even after finding that out, I was still very surprised about how crispy they were 😁 They're $4 each or 3 for $11 and come in quite a few flavours. We got red bean, injeolmi (korean rice cake) red bean, and custard 😊 #snowyvillagedessert #jasperave #yeg #taiyaki #japanese #fishshapedpancake #soogood #worth #dessert #snack #redbean #injeolmi #custard #sweettoothsatisfied #fatpeopleproblems #trysomethingnew (at Snowy Village)

Stopped for a quick bite during my mini #huntingtonbeach trip with @diannelaine__ and tried out "Pie-Not"- an Aussie style/hand held pie bakery! It was pretty cool to try something that was new to both of us, together. She got the "Dog's Eye" and I got the "Drunken Cow" which had beef, red wine, onions, garlic & herbs. It was probably the best savory pie I've ever had 😍 #huntingtonbeach #pienot #aussiestyle #handheld #pie #savoury #bundaberg #bloodorange #aussie #australian #foodstop #foodstagram #thestariscute #savourypies #fatpeopleproblems #LahelasCaliTrip2017 (at Huntington Beach, California)

Finally getting back to posting the rest of the pics from my trip! Basically I went down with a pretty bad cold at the end of my trip and spent the rest of my free time sleeping instead of posting 😅 Anyways!! Ya girl made it to the beach! I love beaches but we were definitely pressed for time this trip so we compromised and did a quick stop at #HuntingtonBeach ❤ sadly it was hazy and smokey af from all the fires but I still ran in the water and ended up coming home with a soaking wet skirt 😂 (Dianne: "!!!...a 2 year old!!!") #huntingtonbeach #beachday #supersmoggy #ohwell #fun #excusemydorkyasspose #andthhesurferintheback #lahelascalitrip2017 (at Huntington Beach, California)

Had a super fun time with the best at the BCD Tofu House! I've never heard of Tofu (soup) houses/places before and so I wasnt really sure what to expect but it was a great experience! I got the bulgogi combo with the plain/non spicy soup! (You can customize your level of spiciness up to "extreme" but I am a total weakling when it comes to spicy lol) I wasnt entirely sure how to eat it but APPARENTLYYYY you eat the fishy as an appetizer, drop your egg into the soup as soon as it comes out and then mix the soup in with your rice and eat it together. I at my rice with my bulgogi and sipped the soup at the end 😅 but at least now I know for next time! #bcdtofuhouse #tofu #tofusoup #tofuhouse #koreanfood #gardengrove #funtimes #friends #nonstop #food #fatpeopleproblems #happytummy (at BCD Tofu House Garden Grove)

While aimlessly wandering on our little adventure in the LA Fashion District, we followed a sign that said FOOD and stumbled upon this amazing little gem: Lee's Homestyle Broken Mouth 😍😍😍 I got the Beef Fritters which came with purple rice & a potato-mac salad, and holy crap it was amazing from the first bite through out the last. I was absolutely blown away! The pictures dont do the food justice, plus got it to go because we didnt think we'd finish 😅 Although the food was amazing, I really have to comment on the atmosphere! The owners are a lovely husband and wife team who, along with Louise's mother honestly made me feel like family even though Im just a tourist haha ❤ I really hope that I get the chance to go back before i leave A little about Broken Mouth: they serve asian comfort with a hawaiian twist. Lee, the owner/husband/chef is from Hawaii and together with Louise they wanted to bring some of that food culture to LA! I highly recommend them!

Raspberry passionfruit macaroon from Porto's! 😍they had so many yummy desserts, I cant wait to go back and try more! Honestly it was interesting to eat haha, definitely glad we brought it home cause I ended up making a mess!It's really good though, a bit tart cause of the raspberries but the passionfruit cream filling balances it out. #portosbakery #portos #buenapark #dessert #LahelasCaliTrip2017 #daytwo #lahelasfoodadventures #foodporn #sweettoothsatisfied #fatpeopleproblems (at Porto's Bakery)

First #stagette and first time out for #Greek #food! We didn't know it when we picked the place but turns out the Yiannis Taverna is the bride-to-be's favorite restaurant 😊! Anyways, I got the Chicken Souvlakia (the appy version!) And it was actually so good!!! The chicken was perfectly charbroiled but still juicy and went perfect with the pita and tsziki sauce 😍 #yiannistaverna #greekfood #yeg #whyteave #chickensouvlaki #souvlakia #chickenskewers #delicious #saturday (at Yiannis Taverna)
