With a new chapter in 2016, I have been slowing down on my blog a bit to focus more on teaching opportunities (more on that, maybe in the summer ). I have started posting every 4 days instead of last year’s 3 days. But still, I’m still working hard at my reviews! And just because I’ve already reviewed once doesn’t mean it’s swept under a rug collecting dust in some dark place on the web. I always like to add more photos and add additional reviews to my previous posts. They are always getting updated! Here are ones updated since the #4 update.

Also, since I’m allergic to nuts, especially peanuts and hazelnuts, and often times, it’s difficult to know if certain dishes have nuts in them. So starting late May, I have added a Nut warning icon in my reviews. Of course I will still talk about it in the review, but I thought it would pop out more and be helpful for those who are severely allergic.

If you have any suggestions or comments on how the blog could improve, let me know! Thanx! Happy reading~

So, the last update was back in January. Now there’s been more changes and improvements since then

New Look Comes more Organization and Versatility
With the new wordpress theme, I was able to add menus at the top so posts are categorized and sorted out, making it easier and faster for those looking for a specific topic. Also with this new theme, it has allowed the site to be responsive, meaning that it can now be view on mobile devices such as tablets and phones.

In February, Umagazine asked if they could feature my blog on their website. U Magazine is a print and online Vancouver Magazine that tells the stories behind local businesses and events happening in Vancouver. The online magazine portion of UMagazine.ca is where you can go behind the scenes to learn more about businesses and events in Vancouver and their unique stories. They have coupons for restaurants, and will also host giveaway contests to their beloved readers! The Foodie Network section features local foodie bloggers (I do not get paid or receive any kind of rewards from UMagazine other than having my reviews featured on their website)

Bigger photos! With the change of the wordpress theme, I now am able to upload larger photos! (before was 460 pixels across – now it’s 660 pixels), meaning more details can be seen!

Moving up on Urbanspoon! Yes, back in January, I was still at #85. In April, I am now at around #37. Thanks for reading guys!

Reviews on Yelp! Yup! I’ve also started reviewing non-food related places on Yelp. For those places that I want to really go in depth with lots of photos, I will still however blog on IdeaRabbit.ca instead. Otherwise, check out the Yelp section in the menu.
