"Locals can tell you it was photo-friendly chef Hidekazu Tojo himself who invented the California roll, though there are plenty more elusive creations to taste at his eponymous, special-occasion-ready restaurant. Order the omakase—it changes regularly, but if you’re lucky the silken, ginger-glazed sablefish, marinated albacore tuna, and snapper with rum sauce will appear alongside sashimi, nigiri, and tempura.

"Eating out is a lot of people’s favorite thing to do in Vancouver and staring at your phone for 30 minutes in a doorway while you wait for a table is something you just get used to doing - and Toshi is no exception. This is partially due to their no-reservation policy and the fact that it’s only slightly larger than a walk-in-closet, but it’s mostly because the food is really good and affordable. If you do end up waiting the usual hour or more and items haven’t sold out yet, the eel oshi sushi, caramelized barbeque eggplant, and buttery black cod are incredible."

"I'm thankful for places like @sushicalivan that provide decent sushi at student-friendly prices 🙏 📸: Sushi Pizza, Salmon Battera, Calamari Crunch Roll, Salmon Mountain Roll, and B.C. Roll Out of all the items here, the only one I did not like was the Salmon Battera, which had way too much rice and not enough salmon. Not pictured is the Salmon Sashimi, which I highly recommend because they give you 5 big pieces for less than $7 (half portion) 😋 What are some other good, cheap sushi places in Vancouver?"

"UDON know me well if you don't know I like the two "S"…..Seafood and Sushi – 📷: Seafood Udon & Las Vegas Roll The seafood udon has jumbo prawn, baby scallops, mussel, squid, fish balls, imitation crab meat, and vegetables. The Las Vegas Roll features yam, avo, cucumber, crabmeat, spicy mayo, masago, and teri sauce A great meal for just $15. Sushi California certainly has good value for the food."

"Big Rock Urban Brewery got its start in Calgary but recently flew west to open up a state of the art facility in Vancouver where they prepare craft brews exclusively for the YVR market. It’s a great place to sip with an empty stomach as the breweries urban eatery offers a comfortable lounge featuring floor-to-ceiling glass wall looking into the brewery, and a stage for live bands to play to the boisterous beer crowd. Nibble on the kimchi poutine and fire roasted jalapeno cheddar grilled cheese while sipping through a fancy flight poured fresh out of a choir of casks."
