Shizen Sushi

I love Sushi, not the raw fish kind, it's one of those things I can't wrap my head around. All other types involved though....and Shizen Sushi is the SHIZ! If you know what I mean.  They have a fantastic lunch menu offering their Bento Box style eating with a wide variety of choices and that will only run $7.95 you can add on just about anything for $2.50 more.  Dinner menu is extensive and full of all varieties of Japanese food, their sushi chefs are unbelievable! Be sure to thank them when you leave, they love that!! 

The piece de la resistance that I came accross a long time ago was their highlander roll! Now this used to NOT be offered on their menu, but has since been added in the new 2013 year of new menu printing! So now everyone can get in on it.........Holy SHIZAZZ hold on to your hat, this is not for the faint at heart it has tempura prawn, avacado, creamy spicy mayo, and is topped with thinly seared rib steak that is melt in your mouth crazy....then they top it off with this ginger spicy crucnhy business on top...I don't know it's just heaven.  I would actually consider asking for this as my last meal........not that there is one coming soon...but it is that good!

Baan Thai

Gang Gai (Red Curry) Lunch Combo
w/soup & 2 spring rolls!

Baan Thai Broadmead has become my newest hangout. I love Thai food and these folks got it covered. They know us when we walk in and treat us so well everytime.
For lunch:
They offer a combo lunch meal that can run you as low as $9.75 and come with soup & 2 springrolls! Crazy. It could easily be split as well, but not me, I'm in it to win it!!
For dinner:
The plates are served off an ala carte menu and are all delicious. I haven't tried one yet that I don't love.
Here's their website http://baanthaivictoria.ca/
They have 3 locations to serve Greater Victoria and they are spot on every time. Consistency is huge with me, and you get exactly what you go for every single time!! The do delivery and take-out and it is awsome right to the table at home too!

Why believe me?

Just a random cheesburger

Just some random pasta

Well for starters, I can eat! Always have been an eater, always will be an eater. Thin or Thick I enjoy a good meal.  I love to eat out, I love to cook and I love to try new things. Can't get a better combination than that! 

So why believe me? 

I can honestly say that I have been dining out for lunch and dinner and the occasional brunch or breakfast for a long part of my 35 years.  Even as a teenager we would all go out for dinner and "coffee" and enjoy a good meal together, we could drink coffee all night and still fall into bed like the dead. Gone are those days for me my friends but here's to what's out there to keep enjoying.
So I would consider my auntie to be my official lunchtime connoisseur sidekick. Along with my husband and date night partner for the dinners.
So I hope to be able to give an honest opinion about local Victoria BC Restaurants, most of know who I am, and be a place you can visit when making a choice about where to go and spend your hard earned money to eat out.

I plan to expand to other cities I have visited and enjoyed their dining establishments as well, in the future *ie. Las Vegas (one of my favourite places) so when you travel you can make plans to eat in great places as well.
This is all my passion and desire to see people get what they deserve to pay for. In this time we are all just trying to enjoy what we can in life and it is costly so let's get the biggest BANG for our bucks!
Enjoy! 
I also happen to work somewhere that I have access to hundreds of people's opinions and often share mine with them, they can all atest to that once they start reading this!  So please,
I welcome your feedback and additions to the site as well, I always like to try new places and have never had the avenue to share widespread before so here goes it.....
