"A funkier cousin of the more traditional chicken and waffles. Oh, and the maple syrup they use on it?. It's Jack Daniels-infused."

"The Naam is the oldest natural food restaurant in the region. It was originally intended to be a meeting spot where people could come to experience “the good life.” They remain true to their original vision by remaining small, using fresh and pure ingredients, and maintaining a warm, homey, and friendly family-run environment. They’ve been serving vegetarian and vegan meals for over 50 years and can cater to a variety of nutritional requirements."

"A post shared by Hanna McLean (@hannamclean_) on Oct 23, 2016 at 2:19pm PDT. Considered a staple for vegetarian and vegan eats in Vancouver for, well, what seems like forever, eating at Kitsilano’s The Naam is pretty much a rite of passage. Their calling card dish is their Sesame Fries with an add-on of Miso Gravy, but you’ll also find an array of noodles, bowls, veggie burgers, Mexican-inspired fare, salads, appetizers, and much more here."

"As for late night munchies you can’t go wrong with a quick trip to The Naam. These guys have been ‘doing’ vegetarian since before it was a thing and that has noticeably given them time to perfect their craft. Delicious, no-fuss, quick and easy veggie comfort food."

"Possibly one of the busiest brunch places I’ve ever visited, Jam Cafe has become increasingly popular in recent months so it’s fair to say that you should expect to queue if you arrive later than 9 am. Even though the queuing might be frustrating, the food is so delicious!. Make sure to try their Chicken N’ Waffles and chocolate shakes; you won’t be disappointed."

"Breakfast at Jam Café: Enjoy breakfast at Jam Café, which is one of the most prized places to brunch (or breakfast) in the city. Be warned, by 9:00 am you will be queuing for a table. I hate queueing, so arrive early to avoid disappointment and lengthy delays."

"It's like a mixture of Thanksgiving dinner and brunch that's going to leave you with an extremely satisfied tummy for the rest of the day."

"Cartems really goes the extra mile when it comes to local and sustainable ingredients, baking their donuts fresh every single morning. The menu includes healthier baked donuts, as well as their London Fog: glazed with an earl grey glaze and topped with stripes of white chocolate ganache, this donut is the ultimate indulgence.

"I’ll take all the donuts please 🙋🏽‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These particularly lovely ones come from @cartemsdonuts on Main st. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My favourite has always been the London Fog but the Earl Grey is sooo tasty as well 👌 🍩 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What is your fav donut flavour?. #vancouverdonut #yvrsweets.

"Maybe you’ve seen their vegan offerings over the years, and maybe you haven’t. Well, let us reassure that no matter what day you swing by, Cartems will have a sweet selection of vegan donuts for you to try out. It’s the perfect dessert to pick up on your way to a work function or a dinner party."

"A moody, red-walled interior and a sweet-focused menu make this Victorian inspired dessert lounge an amorous date-night spot for couples looking to canoodle over a slice of cake. Sweet Revenge’s drool-worthy selections include more than a dozen decadent desserts ranging from chocolate mousse to tiramisu to classic apple pie, as well as tea, coffee and wine pairings. Cheesecake fans can dig into a signature white chocolate cheesecake – an individual-sized flourless mound drizzled with homemade raspberry sauce and topped with fresh berries."

"Lemonade Gluten-Free Bakery is the brainchild of head pastry chef, Tracy Kadonoff. After close to twenty years working with gluten based flours, Tracy developed a gluten intolerance and can no longer eat or work around gluten. She then seek out alternative breads and pastries to include in her new diet, she was extremely disappointed in the available products on the market and her “Gluten free baking lab” was born."

"Situated in the heart of Cambie Village, Lemonade Gluten Free Bakery is your one-stop-shop for all things baked and gluten free. Tracy Kadonoff has an extensive resume as a pastry chef, but developed an intolerance towards gluten. Not one to be discouraged of her love for pastries and baked goods, Tracy decided to use her skills and create delicious gluten free treats instead."

"With trails that loop through the rainforest, along the seafront, and around the boardwalk that circles bird-filled Camosun Bog, Pacific Spirit Regional Park is a favorite spot for joggers, hikers and cyclists. Covering more than 750 hectares, this green expanse of unspoiled nature connects the University of British Columbia (UBC) with the city. Whether you’re looking for a short, leg-stretching stroll through the trees, or a three-hour trek to explore hidden corners, the park is a hiker’s paradise."

"Pacific Spirit Park is found on the University Endowment Lands and has a large trail network. There are lots of downed trees to climb on and explore. Pacific Spirit Park is for you if… you are a family who loves to hike and spend time outdoors, and you want your family portraits to reflect that."

"After breakfast, make your way to one of the pickup points for Capilano Suspension Bridge Park. There’s a free shuttle starting at 8:45 AM that picks up and returns visitors from seven different points in the city."

"If you want to warm your belly with a luscious, authentic Japanese ramen, the best Vancouver spots are at Ramen Danbo and Marutama. When Danbo went international, it opened its first overseas diners in Vancouver. Unlike other ramen shops, at Danbo you have the power to uniquely customize your whole noodles (thickness and firmness) and broth (thickness, amount of lard, and spice)."

"You’ll also be impressed with the rustic and charming setting at Sula Indian Restaurant (1128 Commercial Drive and 4172 Main Street) featuring antique furniture, pops of vibrant colour, and a Indian mural art. The menu at Sula is extensive but you’ll want to order fragrant seafood curries  as well as Mumbai street snacks. Sula also has a cocktail program with traditional Indian spices like tamarind, star anise, and amla."

"This traditional Indian restaurant has plenty of great takeout options for you to choose from. We go all-vegetarian when we visit Sula, preferring to sample the veggie dishes like Dal Makhani, Channa Masala, and Gobi Aloo. There are also plenty of vegan and gluten-free options should you have any dietary restrictions."

"Truly traditional Indian restaurant in Vancouver, serving exotic Indian food from different regions of south and North India prepared using aromatic spices ground in house combined with fresh herbs, served in a playful Indian inspired indoor garden"
