Surrey, British Columbia has become one of the most exciting culinary hubs in Metro Vancouver. As one of Canada's most culturally diverse cities, its food scene is rich with both tradition and creativity. This is especially true along the Surrey Spice Trail, a curated list of restaurants that celebrates global cuisines. I’m sharing five of my favourite South Asian spots on the trail.

@esteelaudercanada united us in pink. 🌸

✨ October closes, but the resonance of this month remains. Earlier, I joined @esteelaudercompanies at the storied @windsorarms for an evening defined not only by beauty, but by purpose.

What began in 1992 with Evelyn H. Lauder’s Pink Ribbon has grown into the Estée Lauder Companies’ Breast Cancer Campaign, a global movement that has raised over $144 million for research, education, and care, including $114 million through @bcrfcure . These numbers translate into lives touched, futures safeguarded, and a vision of a breast cancer–free world.

The night itself was intimate yet powerful, cocktails, conversation, and a community bound by cause. @tarynincanada , your gracious hosting made every guest feel seen, welcomed, and connected, a reminder that true elegance lies in thoughtfulness.

And of course, a special shout-out to the iconic @georgepimentel1, who captured the evening with such artistry. 📸

Grateful, honoured, and inspired to stand alongside a brand that continues to prove: beauty has the power to change the world. 🌸

Happy Diwali 🪔  Diwali and Bandhi Chhor Divas are a time for light, liberation, and community 🪔. At @langtonPR’s Love & Light Social, hosted by @daniel.pillai, South Asian founders came together to share beauty, craft, and culture. Every moment of the evening was about glow, inside and out.

✨ How to Glow This Diwali ✨

1️⃣ Radiant skin starts with @vasanticosmetics. Their BrightenUp! exfoliator, Colour Correcting Concealer, and new Plump Up! gloss are festive staples.

2️⃣ Keep the hydration going with @sahajanskincare Nourish Crème Riche for skin that stays luminous all night.

3️⃣ Nourish your smile with @shopghlee ghee-based lip balm, then recover after the dance floor with their soothing Muscle Balm.

4️⃣ Give your hair new life with @fableandmane. Just a couple uses of the oil and volumizing spray transform strands. BTW yes, Kareena Kapoor Khan is their global ambassador 💫.

5️⃣ Finish the look with @ivanijewelry statement bangles and hand chains, plus @clutcheeet handcrafted clutches. These pieces carry South Asian flair with every outfit.

6️⃣ No celebration is complete without flavors from @brarsfood and @thehostrestaurants. From mithai to chai, food is culture, joy, and memory.

This season, glow by celebrating who you are, supporting South Asian founders, and carrying culture forward. 

Wishing you a radiant Diwali and Bandhi Chhor Divas 🪔💫

TIFF50 but make it ✨afternoon tea✨. I couldn’t think of a better way to mark my first TIFF back in Toronto than slipping into @shangrilato with @yashyanthi for their limited-edition #TIFF50 Afternoon Tea.

Picture this: a three-tier stand starring savoury bites, scones, and desserts inspired by iconic films 🍰, live piano as the soundtrack 🎹, and me sipping and dishing tea like I belong on a movie set.

On now until Sept 28 (Thurs–Sun only). Book it before the credits roll. 🎬

If National Friendship Day (super late to the game) taught me one thing, it’s this: celebrate your people loudly, often, and with a smooth pour in hand 🥂 @AlbertaPremium Golden Rye 9 Year Old, you get it. #GoldenMoment #APRGolden9YO #torontocreator #torontoinfluencer #friendships #yyzfoodies #canadianwhisky #canadiancreators @albertadistillers

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.
