Parks

A must stop when visiting Vancouver especially if you are a foodie. Hailing from Seattle, I describe this place as a mix of Pike Market and Seattle Center attractions crammed into one location except being a bit larger and much much cleaner.

7. The Teahouse Restaurant
Definitely date place material...
Alas, when I came here, I was not on a date. I was suprised that even though its called the Teahouse, they have 4 kinds of tea and none of it loose leaf. Oh well. That being said, I was still glad we tried this…More »

9. Gyoza King
Give me GYOZA!
Gyoza King is pretty solid izakaya joint on Robson street. Cozy atmosphere and food make it a good destination if you have a hankering for the stuff.
Takoyaki: nice version here. Crisp outside, not too much brown sauce on top.
Grilled…More »

I can't help it! Naturally, I was drawn to this place with its freshly fried doughy fumes blowing into the public market on Granville Island. We went as they were kind of winding down so the choices were a bit limited. We got…More »
