Fill up on more than big-city sightseeing at these foodie havens
Vancouver
While you might assume that you need to head to Asia to sample the ultimate in Chinese cuisine, you needn’t leave North America at all to dabble in some of China’s finest – just head northwest, to Vancouver! With its variety of international cuisines and unique Pacific Northwest cooking, this Canadian city has become one of the world’s top dining cities. But it’s the Chinese fare that really gets gastronauts excited: An influx of Chinese immigration in the late-19th century sparked the development of the city’s Chinatown (now one of the largest such neighborhoods in North America) and nowadays, whether you’re hankering for dim sum or a guy may bow (coconut bun), you’ll find these and more in its muddled streets. For a one-stop Chinese food fest, head to Floata Seafood Restaurant, the largest Chinese restaurant in Canada; with its savory entrees of Peking duck or lobster and crab glazed in ginger and garlic sauce, impeccable service, and traditional Chinese air, this spot is a favorite with tourists and locals alike.
