Full disclosure, I work for their fine dining catering operation. Great place to grab a sandwich. A bit off the beaten tourist bath, its in a yet to be gentrified neighbourhood. You've been warned.

Chinese French fusion. If you visit one restaurant in Vancouver, make it this one. Usually busy, no reservations. While you wait hop on over to the Keefer down the street and grab a drink or three.

Chinatown's Grocery store for the price conscious. Cheapest in the city, but you need to do some digging to find the good produce. Gets very busy.
