Surrey Spice Trail: 5 stops. 5 moods. 1 delicious + local adventure. 🌶️ 

The Surrey Spice Trail is a curated collection of restaurants that highlight the bold, diverse, and evolving food culture in Surrey.

1️⃣ @GupshupSocialLounge is the fun extrovert. Loud, playful, and full of Indo-fusion snacks.

2️⃣ @CloveTheArtOfDining is the artistic perfectionist. French-plated finesse, global flavours, and standout cocktails.

3️⃣ @MaharajaHospitality is timeless glam. Elevated North Indian classics, warm lighting, and hotel-lobby elegance.

4️⃣ @TokyoMithaiwala.ca is the soft girl with an edge. Desi-style high tea, mithai parfaits, and a holiday thandai.

5️⃣ @64_Sweets is the reliable one. No-fuss, all flavour, and always hits the spot.

Bonus 6️⃣ @WeAreCivicHotel is the calm after the spice. This is where I stayed, unwound, and watched the city glow from floor-to-ceiling windows.

I love how the Surrey Spice Trail is all about eating local, supporting independent kitchens, and exploring everything from fusion street food to elegant fine dining.

Save this for your next food crawl and tag your crew to plan it with you.

Civic called and said stay elevated.
A weekend @WeAreCivicHotel, Autograph Collection gave luxury, location, and a little main character energy. Between the floor-to-ceiling windows, brunch in bed, and front-row views of the @letshearitbc festival, this wasn’t just a stay—it was a whole vibe. Bonus points for enough hangers, a supportive desk chair (my back said thank you), and room service that actually slaps. Surrey, I see you.

Adding ‘cake decorator’ to my resume after this. 🎂👩‍🍳 Had the sweetest time at @thesweetspot.xxo’s cake decorating class at Yew Street Food Hall—and let me tell you, my cake got a serious glow-up! ✨ Chef Amanda is a total pro—so patient, so creative, and her cakes? Next level. If you’re in Kamloops and need custom cakes or sugar cookies, she’s your go-to. 🍰💖

Oh, and while I was there, I finally tried Taco Alley at @yewstreetfoodhall—taco ‘bout a masterpiece. 🌮🔥

Finally, a spot in Kamloops that gets it.🔥 @maaza.kitchen 

I was invited to the grand opening of Maaza Indian Kitchen & Bar last weekend, and let’s just say—this place understood the assignment. The bold North Indian flavors, the Indo-Chinese heat, and the vibe? All on point.

The food was a full experience. The Veggie Manchurian was crispy, saucy, and packed with flavor. The Chilli Chicken brought the perfect kick, and the Chicken Kebabs were smoky, juicy, and unreal. But the real scene-stealer? The Lamb Sizzler Platter—steaming, sizzling, and demanding all the attention.🔥

And the best part? Maaza is about to become even more of a vibe with live music on Saturdays. Kamloops, we needed this.
