13 essential vegetarian restaurants in Vancouver
"A post shared by The NAAM Restaurant (@naamrestaurant) on Mar 13, 2017 at 10:53am 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, appies, and much more here."

20 bucket list eats you need to try in Vancouver at least once
"A post shared by Jam Cafe Vancouver (@jamcafeyvr) on Jan 26, 2019 at 4:06pm PST. Vancouverites are obsessed with Jam Cafe’s all-day breakfast menu and are willing to wait upwards of 40 minutes in line to get their fill. Jam Cafe’s menu is arguably all epic, but if we had to narrow it down to a single ultimate dish, we would say the Fried Chicken French Toast is deserving of the title."

"The Jam Café is so popular it’s expanded into two locations: the original at 556 Beatty Street and 2153 West 4th Avenue in Kitsilano. (And if you’re travelling, there’s one over in Victoria, too.) With a kids menu and a full menu for all ages, this is a great destination for a fresh breakfast that will appeal to all palettes."

Best Almond Croissants in Greater Vancouver [GUIDE]
"Looking inside, you can see there are actually two almond sections: one tube-like almond bar and a generous amount of almond paste buried under a number of layers and folds. Content-wise, this had the second highest almond proportion. Its shell didn't have the same flakiness as the two above but made up for it with a great rise."
