Vancouver has a worldly culinary scene. Share some injera at one of many Ethiopian joints on the Drive, grab some sustainable seafood on Main, or treat yourself to award winning plates in Gastown. And don't forget your sushi.
Elysian Coffee

I cannot stress how amazing the coffee is but the scones are equally delicious and a perfect complement to the coffee. I tried both of their scones: the savory cheese scone and the sweet berry scone and they're both delicious!

Well you have to eat, right? Right. You should have a beer, right? Double right. Then put on your walking shoes or hail a cab to this side of Vancouver. The menu changes, and if a beer runs out, don't worry they have an equally good back up. Also, it is one of the few places that serves up Storm Brewing's Flanders Red. One of the best beers ever.

Well, to be honest, Taiwanese night markets in Taiwan would be a little bit nicer, but if you are around, it's definitely worth checking. My Taiwanese friends said that it is not bad, and they do visit this Richmond night market). They have also a cute gigantic duck balloon by the entrance.

Their flavours are incredible. The chocolate donut with a ring of coconut is a personal favourite, but do not let that limit you! While Portland, OR is known for donuts, Cartems might just put Vancouver on the donut lover map, and then you can brag saying "oh ya, I totally have been there!"

There are so many fun events. The Nerd Trivia Night (usually, on the first or second Wednesday of the month) is fun. They don't advertise it, so call ahead (other special events, like Game of Thrones screenings, are also common). Again, call ahead. The food is vegetarian, Gluten-Free, Vegan, and meat friendly. Everyone is happy at StormCrow!

The Naam, in addition to being delicious, is also historic: it is one of the first veg restaurants opened in Kits, and it is probably one of the oldest in Vancouver. The menus include a lot of history about the role it has played in shaping the neighbourhood/community.

It's a great place to stop by if you're passing by. They have a good menu which is pretty diverse. (They have options that are gluten and vegan friendly) They also have a good selection of local beer and wine if you're into that as well! I would suggest stopping by here on a sunny afternoon/early evening to enjoy local musicians in the square.

Although there are many others "izakayas" in town, this one is my favourite, plus if you want to save $$, they have a more affordable lunch menu. The picture with this posting is their special deluxe bento box, and these boxes do sell out fast. Come on a weekday if you can!

It's a quick place to stop for a meal and/or drink on the Drive. There's also a patio (which are pretty hard to find in the city), and a fairly high turnover of tables. It's also open a bit later than most places on the drive.

If you're on your way to metrotown, it's quite easy to stop by and explore this area ... with some delicious bubble tea! It is only one of many bubble tea shops in this area, so if you end up not enjoying it, you'll have a number of options.

Ethiopian is great to share with friends and it's an awesome new experience if you have never had this kind of food before. Because Ethiopians fast for a large part of the year, there are plenty of options for vegetarians and meat eaters alike.
