The savoury counterpart to doughnuts, Rosemary Rocksalt’s Montreal-style bagels have the most delightful chew that goes oh so well with their house mixed cream cheese spreads. There are multiple flavours to choose from, but we are partial to their namesake Rosemary Rocksalt variety."

"The signature dish at this cool sandwich shop on the edge of Gastown is the porchetta and salsa verde (£4.38), and it's worth the inevitable wait in line to get in to the bare-brick and white-tiled interior. Juicy pork belly is seasoned with a herb and salt rub and then wrapped around the loin, roasted, sliced and sandwiched into fresh ciabatta along with crispy crackling and a perky salsa verde. Despite the name, this place also makes an effort with its meat-free options in tasty combos like cumin sweet potato cake with pickled red onion, toasted walnuts and spiced sour cream (£3.83).370 Cambie St, meatandbread.ca"
