Food & Barbie Exhibition

Today a friend and I went to a restaurant in Chinatown called Sumo Ramen.

I ordered gyozas and yaki onigiri... I believed I should have ordered ramen because it's their specialty, but the weather outside was pretty hot so I wasn't feeling like eating a warm bowl of ramen. Plus I had always wanted to try yaki onigiri since I had watched videos on them on YouTube.

Pork gyozas (5 pcs)

Yaki onigiri (2 pcs)

Sorry, forgot to take a picture inside of the gyozas and yaki onigiri...
Gyozas were good, not amazing, but good as I ate them all. Yaki onigiri tasted as I kinda expected, which is rice... it was good with the sauce though. But they put some things on top of them, it tasted like seafood and I didn't really like it so I tossed it over. I'm really not good to review food sorry.

The price for the gyozas was 5$ (CAD), pretty cheap. As for the yaki onigiri, it was 6$... I don't really understand why two balls of rice are that expensive... I even thought they would be cheaper than the gyozas. But I really wanted to give them a try so I ordered them anyway (and don't really regret my choice.)
I also almost ordered takoyaki (instead of yaki onigiri), but wasn't sure if I'd like the octopus in them (although it looks so good, so that will probably be for another day.)


My friend chose the sumo ramen, which is BBQ pork and other ingredients you can choose. For example, she chose the broth and can put in other extras.
The meat looked really good.

Roaming in Chinatown after eating. Then we headed downtown.

People selling (mostly) handmade items such as jewelries.

We went to a Barbie exhibition. The entry was free!

The lights look much better in real.

Here are the Barbie outfits I thought were the cutest/prettiest (every outfit looked incredible, just not really wearable on a day to day basis even though some of these aren't that much either haha):

Sorry for the horribleness of the picture quality and framing... I tried taking the pictures rapidly.
