[REVIEW] Bonchaz (W Hastings)

Bonchaz is a cute little cafe located on Hastings St. x Richards St.

They actually have 2 locations: Hastings location & Broadway location.

It's a typical cafe that sells savory soup, flavorful sandwiches, French press coffee, to decadent chocolate cupcakes.  They also have a choose any 2 special for $6.59 (classic sandwich/ 12oz soup/ pasta/ salad) that's quite popular.

Bonchaz: choose any 2 for $6.59 deal

[REVIEW] Chicco Cafe

Chicco cafe is located in the West End of Robson St.
It is after the intersection of Robson St and Nicola St.
The time it takes to walk from Vancouver City Centre skytrain station to Chicco is about 15-20 minutes (estimated) but in the end Maiko and I jumped onto the #5 bus.

Chicco cafe only accepts cash.

[REVIEW] Lucky Star Chinese Restaurant 新港澳茶餐廳

After working on a project with my friend, Peggy, we went to get some late lunch/early afternoon tea. Peggy recommended we go to a Hong Kong-style cafe (茶餐廳).

We were parked directly in front of the restaurant and left in a rush,
so I didn't take a picture of the restaurant.
