🇨🇦 Vancouver · Toyokan Bowl 🌊 Triple Uni Don Delight
Vancouver's perfect summer weather—not too hot, not too cold—makes Toyokan Bowl's little balcony the *ideal spot* for a happy meal with friends. Sunshine, gentle breeze, and great company—what more could you ask for? 🥰 The *ground floor* serves basic Japanese fare (nothing special), but the *real magic* happens upstairs behind the blue noren curtain! Their signature triple uni don is *absolute perfection*—six generous rows of *sweet, creamy sea urchin* topped with salmon roe. 😋😋😋 They offer single/double uni options too, but *go big or go home*, right? The sashimi rice bowls are equally impressive—*overflowing* with ultra-fresh cuts. Freshness is EVERYTHING with raw fish! 👍 We also tried: - Daily special mixed chirashi don (tuna/salmon roe/salmon trio) 🍣 - Their *secret weapon*: anchovy-infused soy sauce (*game-changer!*) - Bar snacks for our sake-drinking friend (edamame won 🏆) Pro tips: - No reservations upstairs —arrive early! - Balcony seats = seasonal gold 🌞 - Perfect for *slow dining* while watching the neighborhood buzz by. 📍 Toyokan Bowl 1898 W 1st Ave #2F, Vancouver #VancouverEats #HiddenGem #UniLovers #FoodieAdventure #JapaneseCuisine #SeafoodHeaven #LocalFavorites #EatLikeALocal #FoodPhotography #CulinaryExploration
