[宅美食] - Vancouver溫哥華 - Miko Sushi

Miko Sushi

Location: 1335 Robson Street, Vancouver, BC

Mon - Fri 11:00am - 2:30pm | Mon - Sat 5:00am - 10:00pm

Price: Lunch Box $11

Every time I try a new Japanese restaurant, I always order 2 types of sushi that will help me determine this restaurant. One is Sweet Shrimp Sushi (raw shrimp) and another is Tamago Sushi.

Sweet Shrimp Sushi will help you understand how fresh their sushi is. 

Tamago Sushi is the one dish that will showcase the itamae's skills.

Overall I had a great lunch at Miko Sushi. Good portion, fresh seafood, not a bad Tamago.

I will definitely go back to check out more dishes.

[宅開箱] - MSI GT780DXR

MSI GT780DXR

CPU: Intel Core i7 2.0GHz

Screen: 17.3" Full HD 1920x1080

Graphics: Nvidia GTX 570M 1.5GB of Ram

Memory: 12GB (up to 32GB)

HD: 2x500GB

I bought this laptop back in March 2012. So why the heck I'm still trying to write the review. Well for me this is not only my first gaming laptop, this is also my first MSI product. I have to say this laptop change the way I think about MSI. For so many years MSI is trying to cut into PC world but until now they finally found a way.

So, I'm using it for more than 9 months now. It's about time to give a short review.

Pros: 

• Programmable backlit keyboard.
• Able to upgrade, for example I changed one of the HD into SSD for a faster speed.
• Able to run pretty much all the current market games with the highest settings.
• Really good quality speakers

Cons

• Big and heavy ( Just keep it on your desk )
• Ctl + ZXC keys on the keyboard sta not working well ( MSI already fix it for the newer models )
• Laptop gets a bit loud when you crank up the speed during hardcore gaming.

Sums up

Overall I'm very happy with this laptop. It runs very smooth when playing games and even allows me to do some 3D modeling and rendering. For the past 9 months I don't have any problem with it, so far it's a solid build machine.
