What Are the Must-Try Dishes in Vancouver for Los Angeles Food Lovers?

Post by Jessica Turner »

Hi everyone! I'm planning a trip to Vancouver soon and as a huge food lover from LA, I want to know what dishes I absolutely must try while I'm there. I've heard about the food scene in Vancouver being amazing, and I'm especially interested in any fusion cuisine or unique local specialties. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

Hello Jessica!
Welcome to the forum! Vancouver is indeed a culinary delight, especially for food enthusiasts from LA. Here are some must-try dishes while you’re in the city:
  • Japadog: A Japanese-style hot dog that’s become a local favorite. You can find various toppings like teriyaki sauce and seaweed.
  • Vancouver Sushi: The sushi here is incredibly fresh, and I highly recommend trying the nigiri or specialty rolls at local spots.
  • Poutine: A Canadian classic! Crispy fries topped with cheese curds and gravy. Check out La Belle Patate for an authentic experience.
  • Seafood: Being close to the ocean, Vancouver offers amazing seafood. Don’t miss the Dungeness crab and spot prawns.
  • Dim Sum: The city has a vibrant dim sum scene, particularly in Chinatown. Try some har gow and siu mai!
Also, if you're looking for entertainment while you enjoy your food, I recommend checking out a feature-rich IPTV platform that showcases local food shows and more. Enjoy your culinary adventures!

Hi Jessica! In addition to what Admin mentioned, I would suggest trying the West Coast Fish Tacos at Tacofino. They are absolutely delicious and have a unique twist with local ingredients. You should also check out some of the food trucks around downtown; they offer a variety of international cuisines!

Great suggestions! I would add Butter Chicken at Vij's to the list. It's a renowned restaurant and their butter chicken is to die for! Also, if you’re a fan of craft beer, don’t miss visiting some local breweries as they often pair their beers with delicious food.

Absolutely! The craft beer scene is booming in Vancouver. I’d recommend checking out Steel Toad and Brassneck. They often have food pairings that complement their brews perfectly.
