Nice airy modern local cafe with a great selection of sandwiches and salads. Try the sablefish quinoa salad or grab a sandwich and enjoy your meal with friends on the patio or the long table inside
As an introduction to West Coast flavours this can't be beaten. Mix and match the B.C. platter; cheese, charcuterie and wine paired with house-made or locally-supplied condiments. [Eater 38 Member]
Bao Bei is one of Chinatown's late additions to a community losing its heritage character to new gentrification. Add your name and patience to a wait list for tasty fare. Bao Bei is worthy of a book. Подробнее.

Ticking all the essential Hipster Hang Out boxes (exposed brick, taxidermy, cutesy condiment containers and vintage portraits) it’s scoring much love for its fried chicken, burgers and cocktails.
Handmade and home-smoked is the name of the game, from the delicious syrups and infusions behind the bar to the lip-smackingly wonderful creations that come from the in-house smoker. [Eater 38 Member] Подробнее.
