Icy Bar, Razor Sharp Icy

July 15, 2019

There is a type of Cantonese restaurants where they serve all kinds of cuisine. First, you see congee, noodle, and BBQ duck meal, the typical Cantonese food, nothing out of the ordinary. Then you start to see the New Zealand rack of lamb and New York sirloin steak with lobster tail. Next page you see Japanese sushi, ramen and curry rice. If you got curious and ordered the sushi, you'll find out what Chinese infused sushi taste like. Or a bowl of Chiense noodle soup with miso added that is being called "ramen". Icy Bar dessert shop is like that kind of patchwork restaurants in the dessert world

Chinese Skewers at Big Tree Food Palace Skewers

Big Tree Food Palace Chinese Skewers

July 12, 2019

Big Tree Food Palace is not a very good restaurant. Our bill comes to $130 for 4 people with 15% tips. A bill of $150 for 4 equals to $37 per person. I don't care if their rent is high. Their food quality is not worth $37 per head. The ingredients are sub-par. The majority of the food is slightly overcooked. I'm not sure if it's bad to a point of "must-try", but I think customers know when they eat something over-priced. The bad food quality of this restaurant would be acceptable if it's $18 per person. Not recommended.

Scholar Catering, UBC monopolized Catering service

December 3, 2018

Scholar catering is the only catering service you can hire when you rent a venue in UBC. Even though their food quality is above average, the cost is a bit on the high side. I hired them for my wedding but the extra stress they gave me makes it almost not worth it to host my wedding at the UBC's beautiful location.
