Tasty Eats for Dad
Potluck Hawkers Eatery

There are so many tastes to explore at Potlucks Hawker’s Eatery, and it’s one of the best Pan-Asian eateries in Vancouver. Start with the caramelized brussels sprouts topped with pork floss, then add the Spot Prawn Palabo, a Filipino style take on pancit and wash it down with a Malaysian malted chocolate Milo Dinosaur.
3424 Cambie St., Vancouver
Phnom Penh

Set in China Town, and worth the wait on busy days. The Hot & Sour Prawn Soup – in a word- amazing! With so many different flavours dancing on your tongue: tomato, pineapple, bean sprout, and different kinds of herbs – it’s a delightful dance in your mouth. You can’t leave without trying the Deep Fried Chicken Wings, marinated in herbs, garlic, and pepper served with a lime dipping sauce. You will leave full and planning your next visit.
244 E. Georgia St. Vancouver
The Arbour

Look for vegan and gluten-free options? We love The Arbor, located on Main St. it’s the sister restaurant to The Acorn. The Togarashi Fries Arbor Fries Tossed in Togarashi, Green Onion & Kimchi Aioli are a must-try. Sink your fork into Spaghetti & Meat-Less Balls Spiced French Lentil Balls, or the Fettuccine Alfredo Sautéed Mushroom Blend, BC Garlic, both have gluten-free options.

On the Lighter Side
Fufu Cafe

Fresh and jiggly, these sweet and savoury sensations are sure to please the kids! Fufú Café is Vancouver’s first spot to exclusively feature these decadent, buttery, airy delicacy, Japanese soufflé pancakes. Both the brunch and lunch menus look sensational.
1266 West Broadway, Vancouver
Nemesis Coffee

These baked goods have been the talk of the town since they opened a location near Emily Carr. Grab a coffee, a mouth-watering Miso Brownie Chocolate Croissant, a Matcha Raspberry Cruffin, or my favourite, The Queen. Pick up treats to go and head home to relax, you can’t go wrong with these pastry delights!
