"The lowdown: Yuwa inhabits the same West Side location that previously housed city-favourite Zest, and is already an award-winner in its own right. Opened two years ago by classically-trained chef Masahiro Omori and sake sommelier Iori Kataoka, Yuwa takes a modern approach to the kaiseiki style of dining (traditionally, a multi-course meal). Don’t miss out on: Yuwa’s umami-rich shoya dashi mirin stock, which forms the base of many dishes, such as the hearty Chicken Tsumire-ni—chicken thigh meatballs with shimeji and oyster mushrooms."
"And, then there’s Yuwa, the award-winning spot that brings you a lush and stunning patio-dining experience in a style all their own. With its deep green foliage and bright pops of red umbrellas, everything about this eatery is cheerful and perfect for a pick-me-up meal. Enjoy a light and crispy Tempura with a sweet dashi broth and a savory matcha salt."

"But with courses going online and very few students staying in residence, there’s never been a quieter time to stroll the grounds of this world-class university. Parking is even easier with the main competition reduced to sun worshippers heading to Wreck Beach. There are more squirrels than students traversing the grassy areas off the principal pedestrian arteries, East Mall, Main Mall and West Mall so it’s safe to wander without feeling too old."
