π¨π¦ Just How Well I Ate in Vancouver Over the Past Month π½
From Downtown to Richmond, from Sichuan cuisine to Japanese food β thereβs just too much good stuff to try! Sharing some highlights by location for now π π Around Robson Street Hua Ma Spring β Blown away by their tofu rice noodles! Never had anything like it, though a bit pricey. Half & Half Sichuan β Proper Sichuan right in DT. Their stir-fried pork kidney is incredibly tender. Sura β Even I, who usually avoid fatty meat, loved their pork belly. Saku β Delicious katsu, but service was kinda slow. Kingyo β A bit disappointed tbhβ¦ maybe my expectations were too high? Da Wei Hot Pot β My go-to canteen. Their green pepper and dry-tomato noodle styles are unique and tasty. Guu with Garlic β A gem among izakayas! Ramen Danbo β Not sure why thereβs always a lineβ¦ didnβt feel that special to me? π€·ββοΈ π₯’ Around Downtown 9. Lihn Cafe β Their secret spicy sauce with pho is EVERYTHING. Nice atmosphere too. 10. Landmark Hotpot β Huge portions, great service, super fresh seafood. 11. Wuhu Noodle β Cozy spot. Flavors are good, but portions are a bit small. 12. New Fuji β Beautiful interior! Truffle corn was delicious π 13. CafΓ© Gloucester β Super authentic Hong Kong-style cafe. Everything was tasty! π Richmond 14. Geng Shi Ji β Really opened my eyes to how competitive Chinese food is here. 15. South Silk Road Yunnan β Not exactly like what I had in Yunnan, but still pretty good. 16. Sisterβs Congee King β SO GOOD π€€ 17. Ma Liu β Their pig trotter soup and pea shoots took me right back to Chengdu. 18. New Victory Restaurant β Finally had proper Chaoshan beef hotpot. The meat was fresh! 19. Cang Ying Guan Zi β Food was delicious, but even βmildβ was crazy spicy πΆοΈπ My Chengdu pride is bruised lol. Also tried pork wonton soup for the first time β unusual but good! β¨ Also enjoyed lots of pretty brunches and coffees β will share more if this gets enough likes π And please drop your fave Asian food spots below!
