the ultimate dinner at the Guu with Garlic, Robson, Vancouver, BC
They are 4 Guu restaurant around Vancouver, BC,
but my friend told me that this one, Guu with Garlic is the best one,
their specialty is...off course, garlic!! ;D
they opens at 5.30, but we were there before 5,
since i heard it's always jam packed!

while we were waiting...
my new red flat...my first flat shoes ever!! ;D
i think this guy have a pretty interesting bike!
ALRIGHT!!!!!!! Guu is open now!!, let's enter and see what's inside ;D
after they send us to our table, they gave us warm towel to wipe the hands
the waiter and waitress were so stylish, they looks like just jumped out from the comic book!! ;D
the people works there were so dynamic and energetic,
they give the customer a good vibes!!

Ed & the cool waiter,
he was the loudest...lol...
i really love their service, the food flying out from the kitchen really fast!!
the bill, it's about 70 usd, not bad for such a great food!!
i even got this from the toilet ;D
after the dinner, we stroll along the Robson street,
my friend Ed, found this store...Ed Linen...lol
i love the posters!!!
he's not a lunatic, but a groom to be ;D
the police was kind enough to cooperate with him for the photo purpose,
i wonder is US police will do the same??
a little shopping spree at FCUK,
the store were kinda silly to gave us different shopping bag,
if you bough the on-sale stuff, they'll give you the SALE shopping bag...ridiculous lha...
what's the point of doing that anyway?
Homer Simpson!!! ;D
