All of my prayers have been answered: Iced London Fog

So I have travelled all over this city asking for crazy unspeakable beverages before, so I am unsurprised that people say no; however, it came as a shock when people refused to even think about an Iced London Fog.

It happened one hot July day that I happened to wish "wouldn't it be awesome to have a COLD london fog?" So I asked. I asked cafe's and restaurants and coffee shops, all in vain. Everyone either shook their head or looks conserned before refusing.

BUT NO MORE. I love QV cafe - it has always been a choice hangout - but it warmed my heart that when I shyly asked for a cold london fog my request was met with not only a yes, but an enthused yes from a kindred spirit! The lovely lady made me the Iced London Fog and we tasted it until it was perfect.

So yes, I am right now fullfilling a wish as I type away with one hand, and hold my drink in the other.

Sante Gluten-Free Cafe

The Gluten free Cafe is a cut little place in Quadra Village with the most interesting staff I have ever come across. The food is delicious, the coffee is fine, and they make the perfect Iced Chai for a hot day in summer.

I have to admit I spent more time chatting with Daniel about children's literature than I did noting upon the stylish decor, but I do remember the soft glow illuminating the room and the warm atmosphere making it well worth the trip.

Qoola ~ Your favorite frozen yogurt... or at least mine :)

Jazzy issues a Seal of Approval

To the new yogurt bar in Uptown. No, seriously, check this place out. Sure it'll cost ya 5$, but you get frozen yogurt with candy, fruits, nuts or syrup. 

The premise: grab a container, fill it with yogurt, scoop in delicious toppings, squirt sauce or syrup on it, pay by weight. 

Soooo Good. Here are the toppings:

• Coconut
• Dried Cranberries
• Cinnamon Flakes
• Gummy Bears
• Mini Marshmallows
• Triple Chocolate Shavings
• Bee Pollen (Organic)
• Greens +
• Hemp Seed Powder (Organic)
• Hemp Seed Nut (Organic)
• 100% Maple Syrup (Organic)
• Agave Nectar (Organic)
• Caramel Sauce
• Chocolate Sauce
• Honey
• Marionberry Syrup
• Nutella
• Peanut Butter (Organic)
• Marionberry Jam
• Q*Jam (Organic)

Then they have Mango and Lychee Popper - the most delicious snacks ever. 

Of course, if that isn't enough, they also make smoothies out of their flavored yogurt:

Strawberry Banana

Raspberry Pomegranate 

Cookies and Cream

Country Vanilla

Chocolate

Mango

Peach

Now, I didn't get to try one (I was far to full at this point), but they also make waffles that I hear are tasty. 

 I hope you get a chance to get some of this for yourself. Qoola is one hip place to chill and eat something good.

~Jackalope Bistro~

Jackalope Bistro, 760A Yates St


Hello darlings. Now, usually I would explain some fun way of other to spruce up your food and parties, but today I'm going to draw peoples attention to this great new restaurant that just opened up downtown. 

Jackalope Bistro is a cute little place over by the Odeon (just around the corner and down that alleyway leading to Dragon Impact). It is owned and run but a fun couple, one of which is a vegetarian. Because, or at least influenced by it, of this there is a great selection of veggie dishes. Not only do they have that, but they also cater to Celiacs, and have a Gluten Free section. 


Another distinguishing factor is just how affordable it is. The burgers are between 5 and 10 dollars, the breakfast items are even cheaper, and it's all still great quality food.

Luckily he and his girlfriend found this spot to open up what I now consider one of my favorite places to eat in Victoria.
