Window shopping

I've been doing some shopping for Jaana-Mari, so I've been going to Robson a lot. And I've also done a lot of window shopping while there - this is got to be one of the best shopping streets I've ever seen. Today I finally went into this one shop that had the cutest embroided jeans on the windown - I've been inspired by Dragon's new handsome jeans and I'd really like to replace my current only pair of jeans that won't last for long. Very clever marketing trick from them - they don't actually have those particular jeans in the shop, but they can order them in (and you can only guess the price!). I did scout the other jeans they had - and of course the pair I wanted was the most expensive pair in the store with price tag of over $300. Even more expensive than the ones with Swarovski Crystals (and how on earth do you wash those anyway?!?). Sometimes I hate having such an expensive taste...

On my way back, I decided to stop at a newly opened restaurant called Enthuze to have a light lunch. I chose some Gyoza Nagoya (those little fried pockets with a meaty filling) and a glass of Thai iced tea. The tea arrived first - and I was expecting greenish tea, but it turned out to be light orange. From the colour I'd say it obviously had milk in it, and from the taste I'd say it's the same type of smoky tea you get in most oriental restaurants here when you step in. The combination made me feel ill - I've been on a no-lactose diet for some time now, and only this week moved into low-lactose diet and I'm having some yoghurt for breakfast that seems to be just fine. Just drinking cold milk was highly unpleasant and I suffered from a stomach ache until I got home and drank some green tea. Gyoza wasn't too exiting either - warm, not hot, the soy sauce was too strong and the taste was a bit underwhelming. The place was really nice though, it's a shame the food wasn't better.
