1. Kirin Seafood Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V5Z 3X7
Canada
(604) 879-8038
Vancouver has great Chinese food! Well, at least at Kirin. I must have had the best dim sum of my life.
We parked in the shopping center lot and arrived at 10:30AM Sunday morning, beating the noon rush. Parking was free with restaurant validation and…More »
2. Dockside Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6H 3R9
Canada
(604) 685-7070
Category:
Seafood
Neighbourhood: Granville Island/False Creek
Drink beer and watch curling.
That's exactly what we did. My friends and I had some free time before a meetup with other friends so we headed to Dockside for beers. (We had originally intended to do beer tastings at the Granville Island Brewing…More »
3. Brewhouse at Whistler
In short, good for groups with a casual, cozy atmosphere to drink and eat with friends. Food was hit or miss and the house draft beers were forgettable.
Now for the details. We came here with a group of 9 and had made dinner reservations ahead of…More »
4. Siegel's Bagels
Vancouver, BC V6H 3R9
Canada
(604) 685-5670
Category:
Bagels
Neighbourhood: Granville Island/False Creek
I LOVE their bagel sandwiches! It's a must-have!
A visit to Siegel's Bagels is something I must do every time I visit Granville Public Market. Made fresh continuously throughout the day, Siegel's bagels are perfectly baked with a nice, chewy and soft…More »
5. Lift Coffee Company
Skip Starbucks and go to Lift Coffee Company for a drink. They brew JJ Bean, a Canadian small batch coffee roaster based in Vancouver. I first heard about Lift Coffee Company from a local, who said resident Australians were serious about their coffee…More »
6. Motomachi Shokudo
Most authentic ramen experience I've had so far...in North America!
The order:
- Organic beer
- Butchigiri Gyoza, $3.75
- Nama Shoyu Ramen, $8.95
- Extra BBQ Pork Miso Ramen with an extra egg, $13
What Motomachi Shokudo did right:
1. Perfectly cooked egg…More »
7. Mountain Riders
In short: chill atmosphere, friendly staff, good selection of snowboarding gear, and cash only.
This store had great discounts on apparel and gear. Granted it was the end of the season and there were sales at every ski/snowboard shop I went to, this…More »
8. Whistler Public Library
Free Wi-Fi!
By using the internet at the library, I was able to easily check my emails and do research on what to do in and around Whistler. I saved money and avoided paying the daily internet usage fees back at the hotel. Who knew a library would be…More »
9. Cow's Whistler
Whistler, BC V0N 1B4
Canada
(604) 938-9822
Category:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
It's cold and snowing, but Cow's still makes a great treat after a day of riding. Once again, it was my go-to spot for ice cream in the Village. I loved the dense, creamy texture of the ice cream. Be sure to get one of their waffle cones or bowls,…More »

10. Artisan Sakemaker
Vancouver, BC V6H 4G9
Canada
(604) 685-7253
Good sake, disinterested server.
My boyfriend and I were really excited about sake tasting at Artisan Sakemaker. We love doing brewery tours, wine tastings and the like. However, this was the first time we felt our server/customer service was lacking…More »
11. Kintaro Ramen Noodle
Ramen is perfect on those chilly days. After eating excellent ramen at Motomachi Shokudo a few doors down a week before, I really wanted to try Kintaro, which seemed to have an endless line of ramen fans waiting outside. With that kind of popularity,…More »
