"This Indian inspired fusion street food is a must if you’re looking for something other than basic Western food!. This brings the flavor of India to Vancouver with popular dishes such as the mutton kebabs with curry and the butter chicken schnitzel!. They have a restaurant as well, but if you’re feeling the street food (which is why you would be reading this article), you have to check out their food truck."

Your 1 Week Travel Plan For Things To See In And Around Vancouver
"Grouse Mountain is about 15-minutes after crossing Lions Gate Bridge. Head to the top of Grouse Mountain by cable car and you’ll be transformed into a snowy world of outdoor skating, snowshoeing, skiing and snowboarding. In summer, you’ll still find lots of snow, but it’s truly a hiker’s dream with a heap of trails, the Grouse Grind, and mountaintop trails of varying intensity that’ll suit most hikers."

"The Lion’s Gate Bridge is Vancouver’s most iconic bridge, and the best views of it are from Stanley Park. See it from the Prospect Point Lookout or walk a little bit down Stanley Park Drive to see it straight on like in the photo above!. Fun fact: the Guinness family (yes, the Irish brewing company) built the bridge in 1938!"
