Don't want to dine inside a restaurant but want to

Don't want to dine inside a restaurant but want to experience @dineoutvanfest? Then you should check out @streetfoodvancouver located in front of @vanartgallery! #DOVF It is a huge open area so there's tons of space, and bonus, you can bring your doggos too! (👉🏻Tip: walk to @nordstromcanada after and do some shopping because they're also dog friendly!)

👍They are open from Jan 15th to 23rd from 11am-2pm on weekdays, and 11am-5pm on weekends. Admission is free and there are about 7-8 food trucks daily.

Below are the items I tried:
⭐️ Arancini Trio from @mrarancino
⭐️ Connecticut Lobster Roll & Lobster Bisque from @saltyslobster
⭐️ Fish & Chips with add-on Crispy Prawns, and Salmon Burger from @mamasfishandchips (this was my fav of the bunch! ♥️)
⭐️ Snoop Dog from @reelmacandcheese
⭐️Chicken Skewers from @kampongfooodtruck
⭐️Fili-pino Cheeze Steak Fries from @shamelessbuns
⭐️So Gouda from @meltcity

⬇️ DO YOU MISS FOOD TRUCKS? ⬇️

✨ DINE OUT VANCOUVER IS BACK! ✨ @dineoutvanfe

✨ DINE OUT VANCOUVER IS BACK! ✨

@dineoutvanfest is back this year and it’s got everyone excited 😁 It’s officially on from now till JAN 31st so go check out the restaurant menus and make your reservations asap 🏃💨

Tons of restaurants have takeout options for #DOVF as well for those that want to stay in! 👌

💜 I got a chance to try @theriseeatery’s $48pp Dine Out menu and I gotta say… some of the dishes BLEW my mind 🤯 I’ve always been a fan of @chefdanleung’s creations and this time he knocked it out of the park again 👍

These are the items I HIGHLY RECOMMEND:
🌟 Chicken Seoul Good (make sure to pair this with the @mainstreetbrewingco Lager 🍻)
🌟 Buried Treasure ( miso braised veggies - heck yes 🙌)
🌟 Belly Rolls ( ddukkboki rice cakes with pork belly ragu 🤤)
🌟Ultimate Se-duck-tion (this new dish was outstanding 👏 the duck meatballs in particular were amazingggg)
🌟 Uni-versal Pasta XO Edition (must get item every time)
🌟 Luv U So Matcha (can’t go wrong with this green tea dessert)
🌟Boba Coma (if you like boba/pearls, you’ll LOVE this dessert)

➡️ SWIPE TO SEE THEIR DOV MENU ➡️

All in all, I would highly recommend checking @theriseeatery for #DOVF 💜 The owners put a lot of hard work into this menu and you can definitely taste it 🥰

[ ✨NEW ITEMS AT OEB! TAKE NOTES! 📝 ] ‼️

[ ✨NEW ITEMS AT OEB! TAKE NOTES! 📝 ]

‼️ @oeb_breakfast launched some wonderful new menu items for 2022 and HOLY COW, were they delicious 😱 My most unexpected favourite item were the Chilaquiles ($20)!! | #ad

Not only is it gorgeous, this plate of duck fat fried corn tortilla chips, salsa roja, feta cheese, avocado, tomato, cilantro crema, fried pinto beans, and sunny side eggs tasted amazing as well. All the flavours were on point 👌🏻

Other items I tried include:

⭐️ Bagel Forestiere ($23) - wild cultivated mushrooms, garlic confit (YUM), artisan bagel, herbed cream cheese, poached eggs, tartufata truffles, lavender fleur de sel, & microgreens
⭐️ Gnocchi Breakfast Carbonara ($21) - gluten free gnocchi carbonara, double smoked bacon, brown butter hollandaise, grana padano, raw yolk, petite watercress
⭐️ Chicken & Blueberry Bangers ($5 add on) - not a new menu item but I HOLY COW these are SOOOO GOOD with huge plump blueberries inside the sausage 😱Seriously a MUST TRY 💪🏻

💭 TALK TUESDAY 💭 [ Corporate Marketing to F

💭 TALK TUESDAY 💭

[ Corporate Marketing to Full Time Food Content Creator ]
🌟 5 Things I Learned in my 1st Month 🌟

1️⃣ Don't kill me but it truly IS as magical as I expected to be🪄
- It COULD still be the honeymoon period talking.... BUT I used to live for the weekends and stat holidays. NOW... I never know what day of the week it is, and I'm just doing what I love. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
- people used to ask me "oh wow is food blogging your full time job?", and I would say "I wish! To eat and talk about food and get paid? Oh one can dream 💤🙄"
- well.... now I'm living my dream. And I feel so happy, fulfilled, and grateful every day 😇

2️⃣ Burnout can come so quickly 🔥
- I already got burnt out in late December and started getting headaches from being on my phone/computer all day. What I used to do 'for fun' is now my job, and even though I could 'work 24/7' because I love it, I realize that it's not sustainable
- @vancouverfoodie already gave me good advice on how not to burn out and I still did it to myself 🥲😑

3️⃣ The pressure is on 😵‍💫
- I would not recommend anyone to give up their full time corporate job on a whim to pursue their side hustle if their current side hustle is not generating a lot of income
- especially for people with mortgages, dependents, or other large expenses
- my transition was very calculated and strategic, and I made sure I was going to be okay financially to pursue this for at least one year
- you'll feel the financial pressure very quickly so you have to be smart

4️⃣ It's not for everyone 🙅🏻‍♀️
- it can get overwhelming very easily
- you need to have a lot of self motivation and be able to set realistic short term goals, as well as long term goals

5️⃣ It can get lonely 🙃
- I thrive on relationships so I need to make an effort to have coffee or work dates with like minded people (that's what I miss the most about a corporate environment)

🥸 TAG A FELLOW ENTREPRENEUR/ SOLOPRENEUR 🥸

🌟💎Cafe in Burnaby you HAVE TO check out!!! 💎🌟

It’s called @ki.teacafe and they’re right next to Royal Oak Skytrain station 👌

Their Korean Western fusion brunch (mixed with a bit of Filipino) is to die for, AND the prices are reasonable! 😎💪

My favs include:
💎 Potetama (poached egg on creamy potato purée) $9
💎 Pulled Pork Platter (with longinasa sausages, waffles, poached egg, and Korean style spicy pulled pork) $18
💎 Kalbi Spam and Egg (seriously amazing silky scrambled eggs) $16
💎 Shimeji Garden Toast (the corn soup it comes with is great! Also love the poached egg with the mushrooms) $15.50

The cafe looks looks like a meadow inside with tons of greenery so it’s a beauty place to hang and chill 🍃🌴

Thanks for coming with me @foodologyca! 👯‍♀️
