I will be in your neck of the woods for 2 and a half months and need as many culinary suggestions as you can fork out. Lunch - walking distance from the convention center. Takeout or delivery only, sadly. Dinner - anywhere accessible by public transport. Any price. Can be a dive or expensive. Any type of cuisine. As long as the food is awesome. Will be in big groups at times, or solo at times. I like to eat at a different place every day if possible, so need tons of suggestions. Also, I welcome any Vancouver food blogs that you enjoy reading. Thanks!!!! Tue Oct 27 16:46:04 -0700 2009 82542 chowsue 1 5157237 Here are a few good places to eat for dinner or late night chow: 1. Jang Mo Jib (Korean)- Robson (Best go with a large crowd, and maybe someone who is Korean, because these are authentic dishes, and some of them may not sound appetizing at first glance. 2. Tropika-Robson 3. Banana Leaf- Broadway/ Denman 4. Trattoria- W. 4th Ave 5. The Red Door- Granville (The Shaking Beef and the Pineapple Fried Rice are amazing) 6. The Eatery- W. Broadway 7. Sophie's Cosmic Cafe-W 4th (Breakfast/Brunch) 8. Cafe Zen- Breakfast (The most choices of Eggs Benedict I have ever seen on a menu) 9. Noodle Box- W. 4th Ave 10. Ebisu - Downtown 11. Some Kinda Pasta- W. 10th 12. Memphis Blues BBQ (Go with 2 or 3 ppl and get the Memphis Feast.) 13. Any of the Glowbal Group Restaurants 14. Gyoza King -Robson (Ebi Mayo and Gyu Yukke are a must) 15.
