I wouldn't say it's the best cupcake I've ever had, but it was pretty damn good!

Poutine: The Classy Way

Poutine made with Baked fries, Italian Sausages, grated le Petit Québec cheese, and Basil all soaked in Gravy. Yummy Canadian goodness.

Zyng Asian Grill in Mont Royal

I wasn't overly impressed, but the food was decent and fresh, so you know - it was fine. And they had Siracha which makes everything delicious!

Hot Pot in Montreal: Fondue Chinoise À Volonté

At the corner of St. Mathieu and Maisonneuve, there's a new Hot Pot restaurant owned by actual Chinese people. Although the food buffet is not terribly fresh, it was delicious nonetheless.

When you sit down, the waiter asks for your drink order, your soup base, and what kind of meat you would like.

They offer Tsing Tao and Heineken Beer (just like a true Chinese hot pot restaurant), and there's all-you-can-drink soy milk and iced tea.

You're offered only two meat choices - lamb or beef, but the food buffet has a large selection of seafood, tripe, beef balls, and everything else you might find a hot pot restaurant.

In terms of soup bases, there are only two choices: spicy and non spicy. The spicy is really really spicy. In retrospect, I should have gotten the non spicy one and added spices from their sauce bar to it.

If you're looking for a good Hot Pot place to go, this is one of the better places I've been to in Montréal. The closest Metro station to it is Guy Concordia.

Bon Appetit!

Food Porn: Back to My Roots - Shanghai Ketchup Shrimp

When I think of home, I always think of Shanghainese Ketchup Shrimp. It's one of my dad's best dishes, and it's so tasty that it makes me want to forever be daddy's little girl. It's also surprisingly simple to make! 

Get some shrimp, and Peel and Devein - if you don't know how to Peel or Devein, you can check out these instructions from Simply Recipes.

Here's what's in the sauce: 

• Ketchup
• Sugar 
• Soya Sauce
• Garlic
• Scallions (optional)

Ketchup : Soya Sauce : Sugar ratio = 2:1:1

Pan-fry the shrimp in the sauce and that's it. Seriously.

Happy Tuesday! Hope you guys had a nice long weekend! I sure did.
