Lazy Eats: Jjajangmyung, Chia Seed Pudding, and Fatventures with Fatmine + Company and ThaiThai

One day I was craving bad food, especially jjajamyung...soooo I kinda got some jjajamyung...I sent a photo to Fatmine/Jaja-myung too, haha I'm sure she appreciated my gesture :P


I had dried fruit that was way too sweet to eat alone, and then I remembered that I had chia seeds :O I'm a genius. I stirred together vanilla almond milk and chia seeds, let it sit in the fridge for a while, then topped it off with dried fruit and walnuts. Healthy, fulfilling breakfast :)

ThaiThai and I went for our once-in-a-blue-moon lunchtime P: I took him to Great Dane Coffee, and he got some pastursss (pasta). He didn't appreciate the cheese; he was expecting feta because the pasta tasted sort of "Greek". I'm pretty glad that I met him because he went to a lot of really good places, and he has great taste. He is a true foodie master, all hail ThaiThai.

This is my sammich. Am I hipster yet? Probably not.

Oh yeeeeezzz. What I liked about this was the super crunchy bread that was just a bit soft, and the cheese :P The arugula also stood out, which balanced with the oils. Yummy.

Soooo I kinda made pizza in a mug with the strangest ingredients. Instead of using all purpose flour, I substituted that with brown rice flour, and then I used pumpkin tomato sauce instead of marinara (didn't have anything else) and coconut-based vegan cheese. That's like...the most unconventional pizza I've ever heard of (so far). All in a mug. It actually tasted pretty good, though the pastry-like "crust" is something that you'll have to get used to. I haven't tried it the "original pizza mug" way, so I can't really compare.

I went to Richmond with Fatmine and got another junk food fix for myself P: I didn't have time for lunch so I was starving. I got a cheesecake bubble waffle with a nacho-flavored rotato. Yumyum.

Isn't Fatmine a great model? She is the face of UBC; I'm sure if you do some browsing around some websites, you'll be bound to find her face, either helping children or smiling like the happy college student she is (not sure if she agrees though).


We've been planning to go to Soho for a while, sooooo...we went one day :D She got some fried rice, and I got...
This tall pudding milk tea... (it was sooo hard to get the pudding out. Nothing really special about this, tastes like your standard bubble tea).....

And this vegetarian Malaysian-styled satay dish. The little tofu strips were really good; they weren't too soft, and had just a bit of resistance to them. The flavors from this were quite strong, but at least it wasn't bland :D
After 999 hours trying to decide which flavor to get, we got the black forest toast box. It was really hard to finish because there were so many carbs x__x It was good but...we felt fat, lolol. I think the ice cream and bread made it really filling.
Inside, there were cherries...I guess that's part of the "black forest". I mean it kind of makes sense....chocolate ice cream, cherries, and strawberries. I was expecting something richer, but I'm glad they didn't do that otherwise it'd be even harder to finish.
