Looking for the best frozen yogurt in Richmond, BC? Timothy's Frozen Yogurt lets you choose your own fresh fruit before they make your frozen yogurt fresh to order.

One of my favorite things about Timothy's is that every order feels personalized. You start by choosing your favorite fresh fruits, then they blend everything into a creamy frozen yogurt and serve it in a freshly made waffle cone.

๐Ÿ“ What I ordered

โ€ข Fresh fruit frozen yogurt (Tart Cherry)
โ€ข Freshly made waffle cone

๐Ÿ“ Field Notes

โœ“ Choose your own fresh fruit

โœ“ Frozen yogurt made fresh to order

โœ“ Freshly made waffle cone

โœ“ Creamy texture

โœ“ Not overly sweet

โญ Food Diary Verdict

If you love fruit based desserts that aren't overly sweet, this is definitely worth trying. Being able to customize your fruit combination makes every visit a little different, and the freshly made waffle cone is something you shouldn't skip.

Flying Beaver in Richmond has a $22 steak and shrimp Thursday special that might be one of the best restaurant deals in the city.

Finding steak and shrimp at this price isn't easy anymore, making this one worth checking out if you're looking for a great meal without spending a fortune.

Time Out Market at Oakridge Mall is Vancouver's newest food hall with multiple restaurants all under one roof.

For my first visit, I tried Via Tevere Pizzeria, and it definitely won't be my last stop here.

This feels like one of those places where every visit could be a different experience.

Hand polishing jewelry takes longer than most people think because it's where the smallest mistakes become visible. This was one of the biggest surprises while learning to become a second generation goldsmith.

Best Dubai Chocolate Latte in Richmond BC? I finally tried The Venti's Dubai Chocolate Espiner, and it's one of the most unique coffee drinks I've had.

The Dubai Chocolate Espiner isn't a drink you're supposed to mix. Every sip tastes different as you move through the layers, starting with creamy milk, then rich espresso, then chocolate and pistachio flavors.

The only downside? I wish they offered a larger size because it disappeared way too fast.

๐Ÿ“ The Venti, Richmond, BC

Would I order it again?

Absolutely.

Have you tried the Dubai Chocolate Espiner yet?

Shawarma 2 Go in Richmond is known for serving the city's first crispy shawarma, so I had to try it for myself.

The crispy texture completely changes the experience and makes it stand out from a traditional shawarma.

Would you try it?

Why do goldsmiths use so many different jewelry tools?

When I first watched my dad work, I couldn't understand why one tool couldn't do everything. After learning jewelry making myself, I realized that every tool exists for a specific purpose. Some remove metal, others refine details, resize rings, or prepare a piece for polishing.

In this episode of Gold Diary, I'm sharing one of the first lessons that changed how I see a jeweler's bench.
