Recently updated lists from Kim L.

Gourmet on the Fly (5) When you don't have a lot of time to prepare for a formal dinner...fake it until you make it!	HK Cafes (6) Where I go for HK tea and East meets West diner food.
I'm Going to the Chapel and I'm...Going to Get Married. (5) Vendors who helped our BIG DAY happen!	Korean Restaurants: Vancouver (5) Hot, Hotter, Hottest. What's your threshold for super spicy food? Bring on the spiciest of them all.
Gimme Mo--Pho! (6) There is certainly no shortage of Vietnamese establishments in Vancouver and I'm still eating my way through them...	Ramen: Vancouver (6) Ready, set, go and get your slurp on! Slurping noodles is considered evidence of enjoying the meal in Japanese culture, but if you're like me and shy, do a mini slurp.
Bueller...Bueller... (6) Ever feel like your memory is going and your brain is turning into oatmeal? Or maybe you just don't seem as coordinated anymore??? These are some things I do to "be present" and to "keep it moving".	Ladies Who Brunch: NYC (5) Nothing like catching up with your closest friends about what craziness happened during the weekend over a Bellini or Bloody Mary.
Get your drink on: NYC (6) Here's where you might find me with my comrades after 10pm.
