Foodie Diary

Here, I write about recent foods I've eaten and rate them! Sometimes my boyfriend might rate too - then you'll get the Korean rating AND the Canadian rating.

Dec 2025: My boyfriend and I went to the nearby Christmas Market recently and ate all sorts of foods. This crepe blew everything out of the water. It was a crepe filled with creme brulee, strawberries, banana slices, and unicorn dust. It was just that good. I dream about this crepe still.

Nico's Rating: 5/5

Jan 2026: One of my favourite meal preps is shiozake, or salted salmon. It's SO easy, you just heavily salt some salmon pieces with the skin on, wrap in paper towels, and let it sit in the fridge overnight. And then you pan fry them on medium heat for ~3 mins per side and serve with rice. But today, I kicked it up a notch and ate it with miso soup, gamja jorim, and sigeumchi namul. It was a flavour bomb fr. Highly recommend.

Chicken Wings with Honey Garlic Sauce: My boyfriend's absolute favourite food is well done breaded chicken wings with lots and lots of honey garlic sauce. There are only a few locations that really does it properly, including WingsUp! and a local spot that specializes in pizza and wings. Honestly, before I met him, I didn't think anything much of wings, but now I'd like to think I'm a wings connoisseur myself. ;) We both love the combination of a crispy outside, juicy inside, and honey garlic coating our entire soul...
