T by Daniel
Update: Location has closed.
Sept 29, 2018
Pumpkin picking!
T by Daniel's location moved to Bramalea City Centre at 25 Peel Centre Drive, Brampton from 46 Main St N, Brampton.
Lion Chai $5
Unfortunately, they don't adjust the sweetness level of the lion chai, so this was a little too sweet in my opinion. However, it still has that really great distinctive flavour that makes the lion chai so good!

Brampton is really off the beaten track for me, but ever since I tried T by Daniel's Lion Chai at the Season's Christmas Show, I've wanted to come to the actual location so I could get a full sized tea. 
Downtown Brampton is really nice and T by Daniel was pretty conveniently located next to the Muskoka Chairs by the Garden Square.
Lion Chai!
The cups are super cute and the Lion Chai was exactly as delicious as I remember trying it at the Christmas Show - what a relief that the full tea lived up to all my expectations. It was so smooth and fragrant - a little bit of heaven in a cup.
Yum! I'll definitely drop by if I'm in the area again (I don't even mind the price tag since it's such a treat).
Kintako Sushi Japanese Restaurant
Really cute restaurant from the interior
Miso soup and salad
The miso soup had mushrooms.
Volcano roll and Sushi set
Volcano roll is with spicy scallop, avocado, cucumber and torched butterfish outside. I liked the roll, but I found the sushi set was only okay.

The Cheesecake Factory - Las Vegas
Sep 24, 2018
Very Cherry Ghiradelli Chocolate cheesecake $8.50
It was cherry flavoured (not like the cough syrup though) and pink and yummy!
Sep 20, 2014
I was so exhausted from the drama yesterday that I just passed out at the hotel after watching the Kà Cirque du Soleil show. The next day I was ready to eat my way through Vegas! Starting from The Cheesecake Factory of course. This location was actually the first Cheesecake Factory I've ever been to and it made such an impact on me that I've obsessed about it ever since (and I always make an effort to see if I can include it on any trips I make to the US).
It looks so pretty - it's even better than I remember.

Southern Fried Chicken Sliders and Crispy Crab Bites
I seriously love American portions; we paid an appetizer's price for a meal really. The Southern Fried Chicken Sliders were pretty good! I loved the customizable toppings on the side and the chicken was pretty crispy and full of juicy white meat. The crab bites were really good too! Delicious little morsels of crab meat with a nice tartar sauce on the side and a lemon wedge. Yum!
But the real highlight was this:
The caramel pecan turtle cheesecake was made with Pecan Brownie and Caramel-Fudge Swirl Cheesecake and topped with Caramel Turtle Pecans and Chocolate. The mango key lime cheesecake was a mango key lime cheesecake topped with Mango Mousse on a Vanilla Coconut Macaroon Crust.
The caramel pecan turtle cheesecake was really rich and decadent - definitely on the heavier side, but a great balance of the sweet caramel, nutty pecans and luscious cheesecake. The mango key lime was something I was really looking forward to since I've been obsessing about key lime and I love mango, so I thought this would be an interesting combination to try. I loved the cheesecake portion of it, but it was the vanilla coconut macaroon crust that made it fall short of expectations for me. Still delicious cheesecake, but not very good crust.
Overall: I love the Cheesecake Factory! They have big portions, good food, amazing cheesecakes, fast service and best of all - reasonable prices!

Life is Beautiful Music Festival - Las Vegas
Day 3 - Sept 23, 2018
We came from the biggest breakfast/lunch ever. So we didn't eat anything at Life is Beautiful. Instead, I spent the entire day trying to burn all the calories I ate by walking and dancing around.
Day 2 - Sept 22, 2018
They were giving out free strawberry donuts! They weren't as good as the donut I had from Donut Bar, but it was free, so I wasn't complaining.
Fukuburger's Fuku Burger
It was a really tasty burger with Asian influences.
Day 1 - Sept 21, 2018
My friends and I planned on going to this music festival when we saw the lineup because it was filled with some of our favourite musicians/artists. I had never heard of this music festival before then, but it was in Vegas in September, so I figured this might be a lot of fun. It was REALLY HOT - I swear the sidewalks were almost melting in the heat, but it was great.

Fukuburger and fries - the burgers were REALLY GOOD and the fries were delicious! Might need to make another trip back here.
