We had some fried dumplings, fried noodles that tasted like mall foodcourt lo mein (and I mean that in the most flattering way possible, I love that stuff), Stick also got a pork bun, and we were looking for some fruit skewers to finish [...]
I had to run some errands the other day down by Jianwai Soho. Jianwai Soho is a bizarre complex of mall shops and Coming Soon signs, much like Shangdu Soho and The Place, and after my errand, I stopped into UBC Coffee afterwards for a cup of almost-coffee. Eating alone in restaurants is a weird [...]

When we arrived, [...]
