Arena Coffee Bar
This was such a fantastic place to stop by and warm up in. It has a pretty cool atmosphere with a lot of sports jerseys and memorabilia for sale. When you walk in tucked away on the back left side you'll see a really nice coffee bar with some seats and wall tables.
I tried the cortado and the flavorful taste was so good. I tried a sweet creamy coffee mixed with an espresso. I ended up asking and purchasing a bag of the coffee included in my review pictures that I ordered. They have a pretty diverse range of beans and types of coffee which goes a long way in coffee bars. The staff explained that they get their coffees from around the world.
The prices were quite fair and I'm always happy to pay for a good taste or flavor. The service was quick and efficient and quite friendly. A great place to stop anytime but more so on a cool winter evening.

Cloverdale Mall
This was the second year the " Relish " food truck event has happened at Cloverdale mall. It's unfortunate there isn't a lot of advertisement for this because there's lots of great food,great music and interactive events.
Of all the incredible food we managed to try the Venezuelan food truck. We also tried the " Sumo " seafood and of course a delicious Oreo funnel cake. All the food was really good and it did not take more than 10 minutes to prepare.
They had interactive waffle making classes and some other interactive events that would be great for young kids. The live music was actually really good and there were lots of places to sit.
I hope next September this food truck event comes back. It's great for the community!

Pier 87 Seafood Grill SQ1
Perhaps the best lobster rolls I've had in over 20 years! The flavor is phenomenal! I was quite happy to see less mayonnaise used in a roll for once. The portions were huge and the price reflects that.
The seasonings and spices used were perfect. The dishes also come with a big side serving of fries which were nice and crispy.
The only issue ( sometimes ) can be finding a comfortable place to sit. It's busy during holidays and weekends. My suggestion would be to find a seat close FIRST, then order and have someone with you hold the table.
The lobster B.L.T looks good and i hope to try it soon!
