Charcoal Sushi & BBQ Restaurant

Lotus Roll – chopped scallop, imitation crab & avocado topped with tobiko, wrapped in cucumber

Went to Charcoal Sushi the other day and my friend recommended me to try the Lotus Roll. It is so refreshing and has a unique twist to normal sushi. No rice at all, so it feels like eating a salad almost! The cucumber is thinly sliced as well. There were a lot of other unique rolls here as well. They also have a barbecue option.

Diplomat Bakery

Diplomat Bakery is down in the Steveston area of Richmond near the dyke. They are known for their delicious cakes from the typical New York Cheesecake to cakes like Bailey’s Chocolate Cake and Espresso Chocolate Fudge Cake. There are so many different cakes to choose from that you want to take home a slice of each! After debating which cake to choose for a long time, I ended up with a slice of one of my favourites: the Red Velvet Cake. I love the creamy smooth cheese filling on the red chocolate sponge cake! Delcious! Must go back to try those other cakes!
