Hon's Noodle House - An oldie' but a goodie'


We love Hon's. Every thing about it. M has been going there since he was little and it holds a soft spot for both of us. It's something about the vast, cafeteria-like atmosphere, the four different open kitchens, the overly-friendly & attendant Chinese servers, and last, but not least, the amazing dishes.

Our Favs:

- Steamed Prawn and Bok Choy Pockets
- Vegetarian Potstickers (on our menu at Miksa)
- Fried Rice "Yeung Chow" Style
- BBQ'd Pork on Rice
- Deep Fried Chicken in a Black Pepper Sauce (dangerously delicious)

All that goodness, and at a very good price.

T & Some Crispy Miksa Salad.

Beautiful Friend's, Beautiful Bikini Cake.

Every Cone Counts.


I recently joined the Board of Directors at Bowen Island's Non-Profit Association, Family Place - (http://www.bowenislandfamilyplace.com/).

Being a board member initially made me think...oh no! Loads of responsibilities and a hefty time commitment. I was wrong. We meet once a month to discuss the details, brain-storm ideas, and, keep current with the coordinator.

Why am I sharing this on our food blog?

Well, we've decided that our Restaurant, Mik·sa, located on the island, is a great starting point for raising some funds to put directly back in the roots of Bowen - the children and their families.

When you purchase a Soft-Serve Vanilla Ice-Cream Cone (between May-September) at Mik·sa, the total proceeds will be donated directly to Family Place.

One Good Deed at a time.
