One of Vancouver’s best spot for sushi, Minami boasts incredible oshi sushi as well.

"Minami is a sister restaurant to the popular Miku restaurant, and I think I actually prefer eating here. The sushi is also pretty expensive, but I find myself liking the options at Minami more. Be sure to make a reservation because it gets super busy!"

"Locals recommend Minami for sushi, Anh and Chi for pho, or Marutama for Ramen. Alternatively, you can eat at one of the cafes and restaurants inside Stanley Park itself. Update: 1886 is now closed."

"We’re big fans of this amazing Vietnamese spot on Main Street. And they have a great patio complete with space heaters. So you can enjoy a great patio and a delicious bowl of warm pho."

A sizable bao at Heritage goes for $5, not only making for an easy fillup, but quick eat-with-your-hands food to take on the go. You’ve got your choice of pork belly, duck, shiitake, and if in season, their housemade sausage."

"Chef Felix Zhou makes Bao buns at the Heritage Asian Eatery in Vancouver. Ben Nelms/The Globe and Mail. Quick-service casual is the fastest-growing dining segment in North America and we're bound to see much more of it."

"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."

"Gastown's Pidgin has launched its new program for premium packaged meals called Carrier Pidgin. The restaurant says its goal is to take all the difficulty out of creating a complex multi-course meal. You simply have to finish and season a few items to have a restaurant-quality meal at home to enjoy."

"Located in historic Gastown, we are a Vancouver restaurant paying homage to the unique cultures that make up the tapestry of this great city by seamlessly using Asian and Pacific Northwest ingredients with current techniques. We recommend the pork"

"Combat the sometimes-gloomy Vancouver weather with a warm bowl of Japanese ramen noodles. The international trend has not left this area behind—there are numerous Vancouver restaurants serving up Japanese ramen bowls throughout the city. Lines form out the door at Ramen Danbo (1333 Robson St. and 1833 W. 4th Ave.) for traditional tonkotsu ramen with a rich pork broth, at Hokkaido Ramen Santouka (1690 Robson St. and 558 W. Broadway St.) for their milky white broth as well as soy- and miso-flavored varieties, and at Marutama Ramen (780 Bidwell St., 2858 Main St. and 270 Robson St.) for noodle bowls with a creamy chicken broth."

Jinya is one of our favourites, quick and easy, it offers a great selection of authentic ramen and also boasts a fantastic spicy creamy vegan ramen."

"A post shared by @vancouver_health_foodie on Apr 25, 2017 at 9:06am PDT. Located in the heart of Lynn Valley, this small cafe is known for its breakfast. For $10, choose between a traditional, bacon, or spinach and tomato Eggs Benedict served with panfries."

"Usually very busy so prepare to wait, especially with just the patio only open. But worth it, we weathered a little rain for..."

"This spot has a menu full of delicious pizza and pasta among other things. And of course, they have an amazing patio that is perfect for outdoor dining. So if you live downtown or need a spot to check out after work, this might just be it."

"Home to one of Vancouver’s biggest farmers' markets every Saturday in summer, John Hendry Park buzzes with a local East Vancouver crowd. A walkway circles tranquil Trout Lake – a natural lake fronted by a small beach at the center of the park – and expansive grass fields provide the perfect park setting for outdoor concerts. Activities abound at the Trout Lake Community Centre, a civic-spirited, light-filled facility just west of the lakeshore."

"Lovingly referred to as Trout Park by locals due to the beautiful lake in the center of the park, John Hendry Park was originally the location of one of Vancouver’s first lumbering operations that ran during the 19th century. Now, the park is a vast green oasis with a wonderful community center and an expansive ice rink left over from the 2010 Winter Olympics. John Hendry Park, Kensington-Cedar Cottage, Vancouver, BC, Canada"

"Home to a robust farmers’ market on Saturdays, a small lake for swimming on one end and canine shenanigans on the other, tennis courts, a still-closed indoor ice rink and activity center, it’s got a healthy tie-dye/kilt/pierced body parts quotient and the air is often freshly scented with BC bud. People-watch and get ideas for your next—or first—tattoo, even if it’s a temporary decal."

"Situated in the hipster Mount Pleasant neighborhood, this little green oasis was originally called Guelph Park but the name was changed in 2014. Back in 1991, a sculpture called Reclining Figure was erected and locals began referring to him as a 'chill dude'. In 2012 local artist Viktor Briestensky erected a Dude Chilling Park sign that looked identical to the official Vancouver Parks Board's sign."

"But "Dude Chilling Park," as it's known—yes, really—is without a doubt one of the most talked-about parks in Vancouver. In 1991, "Reclining Figure," a statue by Michael Dennis, was given a home in this East Van park. Though abstract, the figure—a dude—evoked the image of a person laying on his side, relaxing and, well, chilling."

"It’s in the name, and even if you go just to take a picture with the sign, Dude Chilling Park near Main Street is definitely the place to sit back, relax and unwind. View this post on Instagram. A post shared by Indish Food Truck (@indishfoodtruck)"

"Located in the Kitsilano neighborhood, Vanier Park is the permanent home to four attractions: the Museum of Vancouver, The H.R. MacMillan Space Sciences Centre, the Vancouver Maritime Museum, and the City of Vancouver Archives. In summer, it’s also where two well-attended annual outdoor events take place: the Children’s Festival and Bard on the Beach, which hosts Shakespearean plays in a giant tent. This is a relatively flat park with wheelchair access, and the attractions are within easy walking distance of each other."

"Home to the HR MacMillan Space Centre, the Vancouver Maritime Museum, the Museum of Vancouver, and a lively program of festivals and cultural events such as Bard on the Beach – Western Canada’s largest Shakespeare festival – Vanier Park is a beacon for arts and culture enthusiasts. But museums and festivals aren’t the only draws for this popular city park. Wide-open fields make this a great spot for kite flying, and the public boat-launching ramp is a great kickoff spot for water activities."

"Alas, Bard on the Beach is not to be this summer, but that’s no reason to stay away. Often with more geese than humans, this is one of the best places in Vancouver to fly a kite. It also offers splendid views of the West End’s Sunset Beach and of sailboats and other water craft heading to and from False Creek."
