"A post shared by Heritage Asian Eatery (@eatheritage) on Jan 17, 2018 at 9:08pm PST. 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."

"Drawing inspiration from the bounty of the Pacific Northwest and seamlessly blending that with French techniques and Asian influences, Pidgin’s cuisine unerringly reflects the blurring of the line between East and West in Vancouver. Although perfect for bar snacks — the gochujang chicken wings are the best in the city — and genuinely thrilling for the creative cocktails with ingredients such as toasted rice rum and gunpowder tea gomme, Pidgin’s prix fixe is an exceptional value with eight mini courses of pure inventive delight for 69 Canadian dollars per person. Whisky and sake fans will love the selection, and the wine list offers global gems too."

"Pidgin is a Gastown spot that feels sort of like a basement, but one with windows that you would want to live in. You’ll find food that’s more creative than anywhere else, and it’s good for a special occasion (especially if you opt for their tasting menu) or a night spent staring into someone’s eyes. Share things like their kombu risotto, short ribs with kimchi, and pork belly rice bowl, just make sure you start with the oysters that come in shot glasses with apple granite - they’re like a briny slushie, in a somehow not weird way."

"This snug spot on Commercial Drive combines thoroughly modern dumplings, house-made soba noodles every Sunday, a sustainable and ethical nose-to-tail ethos, and a killer beverage list including wine, sherry, and sake. (Dumplings and sherry? God, yes!) Open from Wednesday to Monday, the restaurant knocks it out of the park every time with its innovative daily menus. Prepare yourself for what lies ahead by obsessing over their Instagram feed, where the team posts daily dumplings, cocktail specials, and staff meals (available to customers) such as chicken congee made with Chinese wine or braised pork belly on rice."

"The Holy Crab is where you go for the kind of seafood that requires butcher paper spread on the table and an ample supply of napkins. Inspired by Louisiana spicy seafood boils, here you'll really get your hands dirty tucking into your choice of crab legs, clams, shrimp, crawfish, and more tossed in either a Cajun or Garlic sauce. Plus they do seafood rolls, and often kick things up with fun food challenges and specials."

"A beautiful shopping mall carrying designer brands, Sinclair Centre, aside from being a stunning work of marble and brass architecture complete with a glass atrium, is also for many, where they first became “Canadians.” The centre is comprised of four buildings that have been joined together, including the Federal Building where the Passport office is located. This building dates all the way back to 1910, a rich piece of Vancouver’s history."
