Across the board, seafood reigns in Vancouver, where restaurants flout their oceanfront advantage in almost every dish. International fare is well represented across town, but none so much as Asian cuisine, thanks to the city’s sizeable Southeast Asian population. Locally sourced, organic, and sustainable … more produce features on an ever-increasing number of this environmentally conscious city’s plates, and West Coast cuisine (a fusion of Asian, French, and Californian flavors) stars on many of its menus. Vancouverites are rightly proud of their cosmopolitan restaurant scene and exciting new bistros and bodegas of every style and nationality open almost weekly.
