Grounds for Coffee Cinnamon Buns and Posh Sukiyaki Hotpot
Hotpot in between food orders, bubbling away with a few ingredients still soaking
I’ve been wanting to go to Grounds for Coffee for cinnamon buns for a while today, and I decided to on waking up this morning. It’s a five minute walk from my back front door. It’s known for making the best cinnamon buns in Vancouver, while also a distributor for Delany’s, Waves Coffee, Blenz, and Bean Around the World. It was delicious indeed. Still warm from being baked that morning, with a healthy portion of icing on top. I’d say they’re the cinnamon bun equivilant of a Honey’s donut. Unfortunately I forgot my memory card in my laptop, so no pictures.
This afternoon was speant with Adam, Wesley, and Victoria from honours econ at Posh Sukiyaki on Broadway at Burrard. It’s a Japanese hotpot restaurant. Hotpot is where sukiyaki sauce is mixed with vegetables and meat and is left bubbling over a burner. The food is then consumed as desired. It’s an all you can eat place, so the waitress came around with order forms and we checked the boxes beside the raw items we wanted. My favourites were the pork, beef, bok choi, and udon noodles. The udon noodles are thick so they soak up a lot of the flavour within the liquid. Delicious! Although as always with AYCE, I probably ate to the point of negative marginal utility. The plus – no need for dinner tonight
