1. Cathy House Company
Small bubble tea house with selection of soup and noodles.
Beef ball noodle soup, mmmmm, soup is good food!

Try the "Dream of Lovers" drink with bubbles. We couldn't resist ordering this because it sounded interesting.…More »
2. Yu Kee BBQ Kitchen
Vancouver, BC V5S 1J9
(604) 438-8999
Oh Yu Kee BBQ, why did I wait so long to try you?
Well, probably because my daughter has never been much of a meat fan and now at the precious age of 22, she's a full-on vegetarian. This BBQ joint is located in the Killarney strip mall, next to the…More »

Delicious Peri-Peri Prawns
(Pic: http://www.yelp.ca/biz... )
I would suggest saving the bread that you get at the start of the meal, to use it to soak up the delicious sauce. Or bring a straw. There is no way you will be able to leave even a drop…More »

5. Ikkyu Ramen Tem
Small and local sushi and ramen joint. A good choice for a quick snack or a big, hearty meal.
Yay for vegetarian choices!!!! Which makes me wonder: Why do so few ramen places have so little in the way of vegetarian choices? Should be easy enough…More »
6. Wild Horses Pub & Eatery
When you ask people in St. John's these days where the best fish and chips is they all say it's this place. Except many cannot remember the name, because they haven't been there long perhaps. Or maybe they've changed names? Or maybe they've just…More »
7. UBC Botanical Garden
A lovely place to wander around and enjoy the solitude of the gardens on an ordinary day.
On a weekend such as this weekend, when they hold the UBC Apple Festival, it is far from quiet. But what a lovely way to use the gardens to sell some 44,000…More »
8. Cactus Club Cafe
Not normally much of a fan of the Cactus Club chains but a friend suggested it as a middle ground - a good half distance between the both of us to meet for a meal. I am nothing, if not accommodating! :-)
My general complaint against 'places like…More »
9. The Burgundy Squid Cafe
Heaven on Earth...And considering the location (The Change Islands) is in itself a little bit of Heaven ... double win!!!
A lovely cafe with walls and windows adorned with the works of local artists' paintings and glass sun catchers. They also sell…More »

Food here is very tasty. Nice to have so many vegetarian options - there is a large buffet that is entirely vegetarian.

When we wander out of town, whether it is just for the day or longer, we like to enJOY our travels. Getting there and back again is as important as the destination; so we usually try and avoid the busy highways which makes Dewdney Trunk Road through…More »
17. Huang's Beef Noodles
This is a great little noodle house.
Limited menu, but what they do, they do well.
Cheap, cheap, cheap!!! Generous portions.

Their menu is quite diverse, so it accomodates the family's varied requirements. Son is a meat-a-tarian but likes mostly burgers so sometimes non-burger places don't work for him. Daughter is vegetarian; lots to…More »

Wandered in here late Sunday afternoon for a late lunch. We'd gone into starvation mode where our ability to make good choices, or any choice, is severely diminished. We had originally vowed to find the first parking space and go to the restaurant…More »

A pub that looks like a pub, that sounds (musically) like a pub and serves alcohol like a pub; but with an added bonus that I don't know if many have picked up on. It is a BRAZILIAN RESTAURANT, and one that does Brazilian food in a way that they…More »

We should go here more often. I'm serious. Someone should remind me.
