Pajo’s Fish and Chips

This hotspot is obviously known for its fish and chips dish.

They batter and fry up a hefty piece of pacific cod and wrap it in a flour tortilla paired with slaw, chipotle mayo and salsa fresca. The restaurant began in the back of a surf shop parking lot as most taco places do and has grown to several locations and food trucks around Vancouver.

Boulevard Kitchen & Oyster Bar

A lot of Vancouver’s “best restaurants” are going to be seafood related considering it sits on the Pacific Ocean, and the Boulevard Kitchen & Oyster Bar is no exception. This hotspot is known for its Seafood Tower where guests can indulge on strip shrimp, albacore tuna tataki, red island mussel escabeche, Dungeness crab Louis, snow crab legs and local oysters. I’m half the population ordering this delicacy has no idea what half those words mean but it doesn’t stop their taste buds from dancing with delight.

Purebread

Once you have eaten all the seafood you can stomach, you may want to indulge yourself in some dessert at Purebread, a pastry and dessert heaven. Everything they sell is bigger than your face from their meringues to their coconut cake. Their dessert table has been dubbed the Crack Bar for its tower of irresistible sweets especially its “crack” made of butter, heavy cream, brown sugar and some corn flour. Simple ingredients for an addicting treat.

These are just a few of the city’s amazing restaurants, but in all honesty, you can go down any street and take any turn and you will hit a place to eat that will make the foodie in you want to blog.
