Destiny Tea House

This is one of the best places to hang out with family or friends. They have assorted drinks, dessert and Asian cuisine. It’s a little overpriced. I like their interior designed, spacious place and there’s free wi-fi.

What did I order?
Fresh Fruit – Strawberry Milk with aloe $6.99

My bf got Mango milk tea with jelly and it cost almost $6. He wanted his drink to be cold but it turned out to be warm. I blamed the tea. Sorry guys, there’s no picture of his drink because he didn’t want me to take pictures.

The staffs were polite and we got our drinks really fast! I would definitely go back to check out their other drinks and food. Their cakes look delicious!

Avon Haul

This is my first time ordering things from Avon website. They were on sale for $0.99 each on Campaign 8. If you would like to order online, you can enter my phone number to get discounted shipping fee. Please, send me a message or write a comment below and I will contact you asap.

What did I buy?
- 2 moisture therapy intensive healing & repair hand cream 45 ml
The texture is not greasy and absorb into skin quickly. I also have 125 ml one (got it as a gift) but I wanted to get 2 small sizes so, I can take it to work and travelling.

- Haiku Shimmering Body Powder
They have 6 different body powders! I read the reviews before selecting one. Most customers love this light shimmer and refreshing scent. I love it too! It smells like spring! Too bad, it doesn’t come with a body powder puff.

- Skin So Soft Fresh & Smooth Hair Minimizing roll-on anti-perspirant deodorant 50 ml

La Paloma Gelateria & Café

My bf had been telling about this place that sells the best gelato and we finally went there tonight! I invited my big sis to come too because I know how much she loves gelato! They have so many different flavours! You are allowed to ask for samples. All of us ordered small cups. I thought it was kind of little but it actually satisfied me. They gave us like 2 scoops that filled over the top! I would certainly come back again! :)

Price: $4.20+tax each
Total after tax: $14.24 CAD

- Cherry (It tastes sweet and sour)

- Vanilla with chocolate chips

- Orange (It reminds me of Crush soda. Surprisingly, my bf could smell this sitting diagonally from my big sis. I couldn't smell it!)

Little SaiGon Restaurant

Last Saturday, my bf and I went to this Vietnamese, Thai and Japanese Cuisine. They have lovely wall murals but the floor tiles felt very slippery for my running shoes. It wasn’t just me! My bf felt it too. Ha-ha. I was amazed by their variety of foods on the menu. I felt like ordering a little bit of everything but we wouldn’t be able to finish it. We got mild spice beef pad Thai, spring rolls and 2 bowls of pho (sry, I only took 2 pics). The pho noodles were thick and hard. I let it soak in the hot bowl for few minutes. Spring rolls’ rice papers were a little hard too. I don’t know what it was but the beef balls or sweet sauce tasted odd. My bf said it was fine. Also, the pad Thai didn't taste authentic. We think they used pho noodles to make it (Vietnamese style). Even Thai express taste so much better than them! :P Anyway, the waitress/boss seems nice and prices are decent. We spent about $30 after tax and tips.

Wok of Fame

This spacious buffet restaurant opened last year in Brampton, Ontario. They serve Western and Oriental food. I already ate there twice before. Their prices are quite expensive. Especially on the weekend and holidays, it cost more. I love how they have live cooking station. You just pick out whatever you like and give it to the chef to cook it in front of you. You can get your own drink from the soda fountain machine or in a mini fridge that have water and juice bottles. If you want to order other drinks, they will charge you. Also at a certain time, the pianist comes onto the stage and play soft melody music. They even have kids’ room for them to play!

What food did I enjoy eating?

-          Sushi

-          Waffle with ice-cream

Live cooking station

-          Steak

-          Mussels

-          Shrimps

-          Salmon

-          Noodles, vegetables and meats      

I only love the fresh food!

Don Don Izakaya

My friends and I had been talking about this Japanese restaurant for 2 months. They were still renovating in January and we couldn’t wait to go try their food! Last Thursday, we finally went there and it was somewhat disappointing. When we entered into the restaurant, the lady did quick drum beats. They gave us 2 things that we didn’t order and it wasn’t even busy. Some of the foods on the menu look really simple and easy to make. The food that we ordered tasted kind of bad and alright. The staff didn’t seem like they were 100% energetic. Guu Izakaya’s and Guu SakaBar’s staffs were so much more energetic than them. They would shout on top of their lungs and the atmospheres were so alive! I think Guu SakaBar was the best one. I would definitely eat there again. Anyway, my friends and I would still like to check out Don Don Izakaya’s lunch menu. Hopefully, it would be so much better. I love the interior design and spacious place.

What did we order?

- Chicken and Japanese Plum Salad $7.90

The chicken was dried and plum sauce tasted weird.

- Sashimi Salmon $10.50

- Soy Milk Tofu $3.50 (my friend didn’t like the texture of the tofu)

- Japanese Style Vege Hamburg Steak $6.20 (this plate didn’t look like the menu’s picture)

- Seafood Udon $7.60

- Green tea Mousse $4.20

- Black croquettes with ketchup $7

********************************

(My big sis didn’t take picture of these food)

- Hoppeta-Yaki – chicken +potato +otafuku sauce $8.50

- Beef Bowl $5.20
Beef tasted dried and my friend added soy sauce to make it better. Lol.

- Seafood Dorea $6.80
Mini mussels were dried and the rice was salty.

*I didn't try everything that were on the table.*

Revlon ColorBurst Lip Butter Review + Swatch

Originally, I wanted to buy Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm but I heard how amazing the Revlon Lip Butter was. I just gotta try it out! I’ve always wanted a nude lipstick but I don’t like to wear lipstick because my lips get dry easily. So, this lip butter is perfect for me! I chose Creamsicle color. It’s light, peachy and shimmery. Next time, I would like to buy Creme Brulee and one of the light pink colors.

Pros
- Texture is smooth
- You can see through the cap
- The color almost looks exactly like the cap’s color
- No expiration date
- Packaged in a clear plastic bag
- Available in 20 shades

Cons
- Hard to pull off the cap
- Feel a little sticky (I would have to exfoliate my lips before applying it on)
- When you are closing it down, it smeared off a bit on the side.
- Hydration and color doesn’t last long

Wal-Mart Price: $7.97
After HST: $9 CAD
