Last Week of Van: Going Out of my Comfort Zone

Sorry for the delay :P I still have some old posts, such as the meals during the last week of classes...I hour I can get them out next hahaha.

I went to Luke's General Store on Hastings Street after I saw an Instagram post of sandwiches from The Acorn. Unfortunately, I didn't know that this food is only available during the weekend -__- So I got a dulce latte, even though I'm not a coffee person. It was actually kind of nice, but my breath and stomach didn't thank me afterwards. It wasn't overly sweet, and there wasn't too much foam (even though I like foam).


I also caught up with my Australian friend that I met through Jump Start in my first year. We went to Provence Mediterranean Grill, and I really enjoyed the food. It was pricey, but that's what fine dining is, lol. They served complimentary bread with anchovies and butter. 


My friend ordered the seafood linguine. Sorry, can't tell you how it tastes :P 


I got the risotto with butternut squash. It was thoroughly cooked, not too heavy or greasy, and surprisingly filling.


I finally went to the Vegan Pudding Co. I've been wanting to come here ever since Fatmine and I passed by it before it officially opened. The texture of the pudding is like pumpkin pie, and the Vegan whipped cream and pudding itself seem to be coconut based. If you like your pudding thick, this place makes their pudding thick :)




The rain was suuuper bad so we went next door to get more substantial food. I was quite impressed with these waffles (it's pretty hard to mess up waffle sandwiches). Sometimes the waffles can get a bit soggy, but even after several hours, the waffles still seemed OK. I had the avocado and egg breakfast sandwich :P They didn't put too much mayo, so there was a nice balance of flavors and texture.
