Best Cheapy East Van Quick Eats!

I never eat dinner at home and yet I'm not rich. Here's my top five favorite places to go for a quick meal after work that's also very easy on my wallet. In fact, it's probably cheaper at these places than to cook my own meals!

I love you Congee Noodle House. I need to have you at least once a week.

It ain't a pretty restaurant, it's loud, it's probably not very clean but something about this place is oh so comforting.

Fantastical meal tonight. Sticky icky tamarind crab was oh so delicious, a hint of tang and curiously spicy. What the heck is a tamarind anyways?

We also had some raw beef salad that was really refreshing and tasty, the chicken salad was really good…More »

It ain't the best food, but it's 5 mins away from my house, it's cheap and it's quick.

Once in awhile I crave Chinese style western breakfast. You know, the shiny egg with a slightly different texture, thick sliced bread. Weird goop on…More »

Dai Tung isn't fancy high class dim sum, it is a classic East Van establishment so don't come in expecting something amazing.

I haven't been here for dinner for at least 10 years but when I'm lazy this is the place I…More »
