Victoria/Vancouver Day 7

My last day in Victoria...

Floyds Diner- 2915 Douglas Street

How did we find this place? Circle around downtown and look for a line that forms in front of a restaurant.. Even when it's raining...

The staff at Floyd's diner are exceptional! They were so funky and nice, the decor was super funky as well.

My breakfast caesar.. don't judge I was on holiday...

The coolest looking lime ever. Looks like it's part lemon woahhh!
This is my eggs benedict with a special hollandaise sauce and slices of potato and bacon.
The Potato hash is so good!
I failed you guys though, I don't really remember what was in the eggs benny... this was Raju's dish...
This was my omelette, inside it had sundried tomatoes, spinach... again not completely sure what was in it >.< but it was delicious. I am sure it had some meat in it. Because I normally never order anything vegetarian haha
When I went back to Vancouver this was what was waiting for me =) A blackberry mousse cake made by Candy =) Her gelatin and blackberry ingredients are not what you usually see since she goes to the Culinary Arts school... hehe. Yes, be jealous.

I also visited my Uncle and Auntie in Richmond and they took me here!!

Shanghai River

These are the dumplings that are steamed with soup inside. This was amazing! The skin of the dumpling is so thin so becareful! It might burst!! I loved how in this restaurant you can see the dumpling ladies working in the kitchen..
Peking duck....
Peking duck lettuce rolls....
The filling set in the lettuce...
Crispy shrimp in a mayo sauce, sort of like the peach shrimp but way better. This is paired with candied walnuts. YUMMM
I even got to take some dumplings home for Candy.. I won't lie I had a couple even when I was stuffed. The dumplings from this place are amazing!!!
*drool*
