Ah yes, the infamous Japadog. This was definitely a must on the list in Vancouver and luckily when we got there, there wasn't a line! Must be the rain.

Indian

"It's good, eh?"
Seriously, that's what one of the waitress said to us after we devoured everything. You know a place is good when the wait staff speaks with a ton of confidence about what they serve.
Came here on a rainy Saturday night around 8pm and…More »

Cambodian

The menu itself is mostly Vietnamese rather than Cambodian. Still, I was excited at the chance to have my first go at Cambodian cuisine. Most of the Cambodian items were actually noodles & rice dishes so we opted for the Dry Mixed Egg Noodle. I…More »

Poutine fries to Canadians is what carne asada fries is to me, having lived in San Diego for a few years.

Wine Bars,
Tapas/Small Plates
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Yaletown
Accidentally stumbled upon this little wine bar on Hamilton St. since we were looking for a place to relax and escape from the rain.
Now the reason the place is small and why it is called Raw Canvas is because it is actually a wine bar and artist…More »

Breakfast & Brunch

We were determined to make this our brunch spot when we visited Vancouver and even with the 1 hour wait, it was well worth it. With a group of 5, we were able to try to few things, as well as ordering a few waffles with different sauces.

Bakeries
Neighbourhood: Golden Village
What a great bakery inside a shopping mall!
Don't be confused with the other Saint Germain you may encounter, whether in US or Asia, since the name is quite popular and many bakeries use it.
Came by on a Sunday afternoon to find this place packed…More »
8. New Town Bakery & Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6A 1T3
Canada

After arriving in Vancouver, we headed to our hotel's concierge and asked for some recommendations. The concierge was this Chinese girl and she said that the steamed buns here are considered one of the best.
A little suspicious from the outside but…More »

Burnaby, BC V5H 2A9
Canada
(604) 438-9012
Neighbourhood: Metrotown
Usually I don't really trust tea places inside a foodcourt but Tea Plus was a nice surprise.
After looking through the menu, I decided to try the Earl Grey Milk Tea with half sugar. Good thing I went with half sugar too cause that thing was still…More »

Stopped by here randomly as I was on my way to check out Japadog.
A really small bakery located on a pretty busy street. I can't resist the smell of bread but by the time I went, many of the pastry and bread were already gone, so I went for an almond…More »

We only came here to grab a drink. Yes, we went to a crepe shop to grab drinks.

They have a few beers on tap and I was…More »

Just take your typical indoor shopping mall and... Asian-fy it.
