Living in Vancouver has stretched my plan "white" taste buds in wonderful ways. Moving over from a small town on an island meant mostly I ate at chain restaurants - White Spot, ABC Pantry, Smitty's, Swiss Chalet, etc. We ate white people food. Sometimes we would go "foreign" and eat at the Pine Cafe (westernized "chinese" food - I use the term loosely since it was very westernized) or Wait U (for "chinese" food to go). Moving to a very asian big city was a BIG adjustment. Slowly I have grown to love vietnamese food and thai food. I have found a Dim Sum place I LOVE, as well as a little chinese cafeteria I really enjoy. Also I was introduced to butter chicken and man am I pleased about that. I first had Butter Chicken made by my Auntie Debbie and then felt brave enough to try it out at restaurants. I always love it. I got my aunts recipe and it's something I love to make at home.
