My favourite banh mi in Vancouver. It also helps that I live within walking distance! I love that they have a vegetarian option that is delicious and filling (seriously though, what's with the "hot peppers" here? I don't even think they register on…More »

  Update - 11/4/2010

Budget dining at its finest. Bizzarely, though, a lack of consistency in everything but deliciousness. You could say that they're consistently inconsistent. My beloved samosa scarfer and I have indulged in our "regular order" of 6 samosas and a…More »

I don't shop here for grocery items often, but it's reassuring to know that if I was ever whipping up a Japanese feast and missing that one essential ingredient, I would know where to go. I can't complain about the location because it's only a short…More »

My buffet binging companion and I hit up Veggie Bunch for some all-you-can-eat action on our way to the airport...because nothing says "goodbye, Vancouver" more than eating massive quantities of food at a hole-in-the-wall Chinese spot. The ambiance…More »

What Sushi King lacks in food quality, it makes up for in sheer size. The previous comments about the size of the house roll? Not an exaggeration. Those things are a sight to behold.

The rolls aren't made very well...they're always loose and poorly…More »

My beau wanted to try this place after reading about it on Yelp, as in, actually wanted to go to the effort of going there intentionally, so I indulged him. After having some difficulty finding it, we finally managed to locate this supposedly "yummy"…More »

Recently updated lists from Angela L.

Vancouver Vegetarian (15)

Because "delicious" and "meat-free" do not have to be mutually-exclusive terms!

Vancouver Favourites (17)

Places I re-visit regularly, and/or would miss if (when?) I leave Vancouver.

Noontime Nomming (16)

If breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and dinner is the main one, what does that make lunch? One word: delicious!

Dates are Great (16)

Stumped on where to take your hot date? Here are some ideas...

Liquid Lunch (15)

As much as I love food, all of these places serve beverages that make me very, very happy.

Excellent Ethnic (12)

I like ethnic cuisine almost as much as I like alliteration. Here are some of my favourite places to explore the world from my plate!
