Benjarong

Went to Benjarong today.

Although it's sad that Transylvania had to close, we really enjoyed what we had today:

The Drunken Stir Fry Chicken;

The server was kind enough to ask if we wanted mild, medium, or spicy. I can take only a little bit of spice, and the medium was perfect. Spicy enough to heat your lips and tongue, but not so spicy you can't eat it.

And the Roasted Duck Red Curry.

The curry came with some rice, but it wasn't enough for the amount of sauce in the curry. We ended up ordering another one. It was supposed to be medium spiced, but it wasn't spicy at all. The curry was sweet, I could have drunk it as soup.

At the end, we didn't have to order dessert as they gave us complimentary taro and tapioca with coconut milk. Delicious! It was salty and sweet at the same time so that it wasn't overwhelming at all.

Overall, well worth a visit!

Cafe Crepe

Dropped by Cafe Crepe on Robson today. We had the West Coast Special and the Speciale de Cafe Crepe.

The West Coast Special had smoked salmon, spinach, cream cheese, and onion in it. It was like having one of those cream cheese and lox bagels, except in a crepe. Having it wrapped in a crepe made it lighter, so it was more preferable as a snack.

The Speciale de Cafe Crepe has Nutella, hazelnut, Grand Marnier, and banana in it. I have decided I am not a fan of Grand Marnier. I never really liked chocolate-orange anything. But I ate every last bit of it.
