This Crispy Pork Knuckle Will Make You Cry Tears of Joy! ππ
I've had this Southeast Asian spot on my list forever! The space feels kinda casual/fast-foody, so my expectations were low... but HOLY MOLY was I wrong! Every bite was pure magic β¨ Must-Try Dishes That Blew Our Minds π½οΈπ₯ π Crispy Pata ($35) THE SHOWSTOPPER! π€― That CRUNCH could be heard across the restaurant - like potato chip-level crispy but with juicy, tender pork underneath. The fat melts in your mouth while the lean parts stay succulent. Comes with two dipping sauces (one tangy plum-like, one savory vinegar) that cut through the richness perfectly. Massive portion for 2-3 people! π Mama Cheung's Laksa ($19) Double noodle happiness! Rice vermicelli + egg noodles swimming in the creamiest, most aromatic coconut-lemongrass broth π₯₯πΏ. Loaded with plump shrimp, runny egg, fish cakes, bean sprouts and tofu puffs (those sauce-soaked puffs are LIFE). Customize your spice level at the condiment station! πΆοΈ π Potluck Hawker Eatery 3424 Cambie St, Vancouver (Was dying to try their crab burger but it's off-menu now... next time I'm coming for that salted egg yolk burger!) ππ Why This Place Rocks π€© That pork knuckle will haunt your dreams (in the best way) Authentic flavors without the fancy markup Generous portions = great value Laid-back vibe but serious flavors Perfect for casual dates or friend hangouts π―ββοΈ Pro Tip: Go with 3-4 people to share more dishes family-style! That pork is a MUST but you'll want to try other things too π #VancouverEats #SoutheastAsianFood #ComfortFood #HiddenGems #FoodieHeaven #CrispyPork #LaksaLove #VancouverFoodScene #BudgetFriendly #MustTryVancouver
