There’s a lot to try! If you’re looking for more upscale restaurants some the come to mind are Kissa Tanto (my favourite), St Lawrence, Savio Volpe, Como, Anna Lena and Bar Susu. Looking for more casual, brew hall is a good time as well places like Keefer bar, loulas and so many more. Dm me, I’d be happy to talk more about it!

What’s your budget?

I don't have one; open to whatever from street food to fine dining.

Kissa Tanto, Elisa, hawksworth, and salvino volpe are some personal favs

Go to Laowai…blnd tiger dumplings and ask for special number 7 ;) trust me

Tutto is good for Italian. I venture to Gastown for pubs. Yaletown for brunch, Kitsilano neighborhood for more healthy choices, mount pleasant Strathcona for craft beer. If you’re into brand names mid high end - Kissa Tanto, Elisa, hawksworth, Salvino are your go to. If you’re looking for Ramen spots, venture to Denman and Robson street. If you’re a bit adventurous, comb through Dished Vancouver (curated space for all food related - be it high end, street food, fast food). Also visit Granville Island.

If you want high end - go to Crocodile. They have the best service. And it’s a Vancouver staple.

My go to’s are:

Ramen: Danbo, Jinya
Brunch: Cafe Medina, Chambar, Sophie’s
Italian: Savio Volpe, Nook
Steakhouse: Gotham, Elisa
Oysters: Fanny Bay
Sushi: Minami

VJ’s

Barbara. If you can get a table. It wasn’t easy pre-Michelin star and is even harder now. It’s worth the effort.

Living in Van. Previously lived in Toronto. Obviously rent prices are high as is cost of living. Generally go out and spend more often living in a city. Boyfriend and I on good salary but not saving much due to the above. Before we move home to our own country, we’d love to spend a year close to Vancouver where rent is cheaper, temptation is less, to save. A commute to Vancouver 1-2 times a month needs to be possible (his job). That can be a flight if it’s not crazy. Thoughts? Recommendations?
