Guidebook for Vancouver
Food Scene
Voted Canada's Best Restaurant this year. This spot is just a couple shops down from my building and has an epic Italian/Japanese fusion menu. Definitely make reservations or go right when it opens to put your name down for a table later in the evening!

Amazing West Coast/Japanese fusion food. The drinks are unique, food is unlike anything else you'll get in Vancouver, and the serving staff also make great recommendations. Make a reservation, if possible.

Great food but also has a great bar, if you are looking for after-dinner drinks somewhere. The atmosphere is effortless.

If you want to eat an incredible salad, come here! They don't have it on the menu anymore but you can still request it: The Caprese Salad. I like to substitute the croutons for squash chips and add either crispy bacon or chicken breast (sometimes both).

This place has the world's best avocado toast on homemade sourdough bread; don't forget to get poached eggs on top. The street it's on seems sketchier than it is, I would suggest walking down Pender and turning right on Carrall to get there. Vancouverites know to avoid Hastings Street, not because its dangerous but just because the degree of homelessness makes people uncomfortable.

Right across the street from Nelson the Seagull, this is my absolute favourite restaurant in Vancouver. Make a reservation if you can but it's not necessary on weeknights. If you like duck, the portion is huge, reasonably priced, and so delicious. The pork belly bowl is also a must. And I love the shishito peppers appetizer. All cocktails are delicious too.

Vancouverites love ice cream anytime of the year. Seriously, you will find a line here even in the middle of December. Their flavours use all natural ingredients and are adjusted seasonally. The Matcha Green Tea, Whisky Hazelnut, and Cookies & Cream are serious winners.

Dessert only restaurant. Order champagne or a delicious cocktail for something special, but really you just need to share 2-3 desserts and you'll be in heaven.
