Vancouver Dining
| |
What you'll find
is that in Vancouver dining (pronounced "Vancoover"), out is
not only a custom it's practically a rule here.
We eat out more
than in other place in Canada and with more than 5,000 places to eat,
Vancouver is considered one of the top places on the continent to
eat out for both
variety and quality.

There are
restaurants for every taste and every budget. Whether you're in the mood for a sit
down gourmet meal or just want to grab something quick to go you'll find
restaurants that offer tempting dishes made with fresh, local
ingredients.
When the weather is having your meal
dining out on an
outdoor patio or garden really adds to the enjoyment and it's
even better if there's a fabulous mountain or harbour view. This is what
Vancouver dining is all about!
Possible stops on
your Vancouver dining adventure may include Asian, Italian, French, Greek, Thai or
Mexican to name a few.
Be sure to enjoy
your Vancouver dining on our West Coast favorites like wild salmon, locally grown organic vegetables and
fresh picked fruit
from orchards throughout the region all perfectly accompanied by world famous B.C. wine.
To help
you find your way here are a few spots to eat in the city that are some to the best places to eat.
They range
from expensive fine dining all the way to cheap places to eat
little "hole in the wall
Vancouver dining" family diners.
Many of the restaurants listed aren't
fancy but they do have some of the best food in
Vancouver dining at it's best.
....And
remember...dining in casual laid back Vancouver means you rarely
have to get dressed up unless it's a really luxurious restaurant.
