74 awesome places to eat in Vancouver
"There are a ton of amazing places to enjoy dim sum in Vancouver, but Kirin never disappoints with their dim sum spread as it boasts authentic flavour and is also very reasonably priced. To truly experience dim sum, come with a larger group so you are able to sample several of their award-winning dishes like steamed prawn dumplings, pan-fried pork belly buns and xiao long bao, AKA soup dumplings. Address: 1172 Alberni Street, VancouverPhone: 604-682-8833"
"Dim sum fans should make a reservation at Kirin, a restaurant renowned for its award-winning dumplings. Ng recommends the chicken abalone steamed bun and the pork siu mai, which is made with hand-chopped meat. Preparing the pork this way is rare, she says, and gives it a distinct “contrasting crunchy and succulent texture” that stands out – even in a city that excels at Chinese cuisine."
"A post shared by Glo’s houston adventures 🚀 (@houtxeats) on Jul 19, 2018 at 8:31pm PDT. Get award-winning Chinese food and one of the best dim sum spread in Vancouver. Kirin never disappoints and its price is very reasonable if you’re dining with a group."
"Classically trained chef, and star of Top Chef Canada, Chef Felix Zhou runs the counter service establishment Heritage Asian Eatery. His restaurant serves classic comfort food with an Asian flair, such as pork belly bao, five-spice chicken wings, XLB dumplings, and duck rice bowls. Head to Heritage for Far East cuisine and locally sourced ingredients in a casual setting."
"Heritage Asian Chorizo Sausage and Shiitake Mushrooms Baos (Hanna McLean/Daily Hive). Chef Felix Zhou’s new Asian-inspired breakfast and lunch counter-service restaurant is open in Vancouver’s Financial District, and his second Mount Pleasant spot should be opening soon. Grab a bao and an order of this spot’s signature wings and see what all the fuss is about."
"Co-founder and Chef Felix Zhou originally hails from southwest China sets the tone at this hip “fast-casual” restaurant, where Edison bulbs hang over a long communal wooden table and diner queue up for counter service."
"While most of the notable Chinese spots in the area are located beyond the Vancouver city limits in suburban Richmond, Dynasty is one of the exceptions. Specializing in Chiuchow cuisine, a sub-style of Cantonese cookery, Dynasty’s menu respects its birthplace: expect plenty of seafood, vegetables, and subtle, delicate flavors. The restaurant's reputation was largely built through the efforts of now-retired chef Sam Leung, who, in addition to employing classic Chiuchow approaches, wasn’t afraid to color outside the lines."

"If there’s an OG Italian pizza spot in Vancouver, this is probably it. Marcello Lombardo, the owner, and head chef was born in Palermo and had a restaurant in the Adriatic Riviera before starting up in Vancouver. Neopolitan style pizza, maybe the best lasagna in the city (irrelevant to the story but true), how can you go wrong?"
"Born in the City of Delights, or more commonly known as Palermo, Italy, Marcello fell in love with cooking from a young age. Influenced by the crystal clear water, the flavours of the culturally-rich air, and a little encouragement from his mother,"
