You will get the ultimate experience at Guu if you eat with a big group of people because you're most likely going to try at least 3/4 of the menu. WIth that said... it could also be a longer wait because the lineups are always huge at the Guus on…More »

This place reminds me…More »

welcome to my hood!

I Love Apple Pie :) (14)

It doesn't have to be a special bakery, or a dessert shop... as long as there's apple pie.. I'm willing to try (hehe I rhymed!)

Brunch'n Eggs, French Toast, Pancakes & MORE! (6)

"I'll Substitute for Yam Fries Please" (14)

Yummy sweet potato options

Bubble Tea Shops and other Drink Wonders (7)

Don't think that if you go to a bubble tea shop that you are obligated to order something with pearls! There are also many flavours of jellies.. or you can opt out and just enjoy fresh fruit, milk teas, or regular tea. It's a world of choices!

Not Your Average Macaron! (9)

It's a MacaRON, not a MacaROON, Parisian style! C'est Bon, non?

Specialty items that you most likely can't find elsewhere - must try at least once to get the true experience!
