Vancouver Restaurants

  1. Clove

    This modern fusion reinvention of the Indian restaurant has a menu that mixes traditional approaches with a host of South Asian flourishes. You can start with a plate of delectable gyoza (fried Japanese dumplings) before moving on to an aromatic pad Thai with prawns, followed by an unusual chai crème brûlée. The room is warm and intimate - you can hang out at the bar or canoodle at a little table - and martinis are a house specialty.

  2. Phnom Penh

    Arrive early or late because the lines can be long at this locals' favorite eatery. Eschewing the Chinese approach of the area's other restaurants, the dishes here are split between Cambodian and Vietnamese soul food classics, such as spicy garlic crab, and prawn and sprout filled pancakes. Don't leave without sampling a steamed rice cake, stuffed with pork, shrimp, coconut and scallions, and washed down with an ice-cold bottle of Tsingtao.
