I don’t eat to live, I live to eat.
For breakfast this morning, we walked to Vic Cafe, a very popular restaurant here in Picton. Unfortunately, they had a bit of a wait (20-30 minutes) and we had to check out in 1 hour so we decided to defer our visit till next time. Luckily, right down the block, we came across a bicycle… Continue reading Prince Edward County: Day 2
For a simple August long weekend getaway, we decided to head to Prince Edward County for some food, wine and relaxation. We’ve been here a few years ago and took a guided wine tour already, so we wanted to do our own exploring this time. We left Ottawa at around 10am and after a short… Continue reading Prince Edward County: Day 1
It was our last day of our trip. Again, it is always sad to leave. Our flight was at 1pm today and we did not want to stress out rushing to the airport last minute again so we decided to just head over to the airport and eat and do some shopping there instead of… Continue reading Japan 3.0: Day 8 (Fukuoka)
It was our last day in our villa and we really made the most out of our time here by staying till the last minute. We took time to really soak in the beautiful scenery and serene atmosphere on our patio. The breakfast was once again lovely. On this day, there were a few more… Continue reading Japan 3.0: Day 7 (Oguni – Mount Aso – Fukuoka)
It was day 2 of our road trip and it was raining miserably. Luckily, we don’t have to go very far for breakfast.

We appeared to be the only guests at the 9am seating that morning… Continue reading Japan 3.0: Day 6 (Kurokawa Onsen – Oguni)
It’s road trip time! We started the day early to pick up our rental car at Times Rental near Hakata Station. Unfortunately, we head to deal with Japan rush hour on the train again; however, this time was a little more manageable given Fukuoka is not as big of a city as Tokyo. We made… Continue reading Japan 3.0: Day 5 (Fukuoka – Oguni)
We started off the day late after having a late night last night, which was fine because the pancake place we wanted to go to was not open until 10am. We slowly made our way over to Happy Pancake, where they serve big fluffy pancakes. When we arrived, we were seated right away but by… Continue reading Japan 3.0: Day 4 (Fukuoka)
Jet lag has been getting the best of me and I’ve been waking up at 4-5am every day. Given the limited size of our room, I wait in bed till Aaron awakes from his slumber and we were off from some breakfast in preparation for an eventful day. Onigiri Feast We had noticed a onigiri… Continue reading Japan 3.0: Day 3 (Fukuoka)
First full day in Fukuoka and we’re off on an adventure to the nearby Nokonoshima Island! But first, we must grab some quick bites at a nearby 7-Eleven. I’ve been hearing all about the Japanese egg sandwiches, so I needed to get that. Aaron went with the more traditional, onigiri. Eating the sandwich made me… Continue reading Japan 3.0: Day 2 (Fukuoka)
After many hours on the plane and in various airports, we finally made it to Fukuoka, Japan. It was late in the evening when we arrived. Luckily, the airport is pretty much in the city so it only took us around 15 minutes to get to the hotel by Tenjin station. Valie Hotel Tenjin, is… Continue reading Japan 3.0: Day 1 (Fukuoka)
