Sandwiches worth driving out to Squamish for! @_th Sandwiches worth driving out to Squamish for! @_thebuvette is always on the top of the rec lists for me whenever someone asks what to eat on their way to Squamish/Whistler. Their sandwiches are stacked high and the bread is the perfect crispy to chewy ratio. A 10/10 sandwich! #squamish #whistler #squamishlife #squamishbc #sandwiches #sandwichesofinstagram

You can never go wrong with @minamiyaletown. This You can never go wrong with @minamiyaletown. This new bento from them is head turning and people stopping (seriously, 7 people asked me where I got it from). Their Sakura Box is the perfect picnic box with an exquisite selection of all of their signature dishes. It’s beautiful, it’s colourful and most importantly it is tasty! It’s only available until April 28 for take out only. #japanesefood #bentobox #vancouver #vancouverfood #yvreats #yvrfood #yaletown #sushi *m e d i a
🔖 BOOKMARK THIS FOR YOUR NEXT NIGHT OUT New fr 🔖 BOOKMARK THIS FOR YOUR NEXT NIGHT OUT New from @kitchentablerestaurants is the vibey, romantic and fun @cantinadiluigivan. They have a short but tight menu of appetizers and fresh pasta. I came by on a Thursday with a friend and it was super busy even at 530 pm! The appies were amazing (especially the anchovy and egg) and the pastas were very flavourful and perfectly cooked. The Tagliolini with seafood was a stand out and a must order dish. Cantina di Luigi is walk in only and it fills up so fast so aim to get here early. Definitely a must revisit spot for me and I can’t wait to be back. #italianfood #freshpasta #burrata #vancouverfood #yvreats #vancouverbc #yvr #chinatown #vancouverfoodie #hiddengem
🔖 BOOKMARK THIS SPOT FOR THE BEST TTEOKBOKKI 🔖 BOOKMARK THIS SPOT FOR THE BEST TTEOKBOKKI This is the best tteokbokki you will ever have and it only costs 6,000W. Each serving has 3 super thick rice cakes cut in half, smothered in a super spicy red sauce and mixed with fresh shreds of daikon. This stall is located at gwangjang market near the famous twisty donut place and it is 11/10 worth a try. the line was long, but it moves fast. the majority of the people in line were korean so…. I take it as a sign that it’s good stuff. 😉 #koreanfood #spicyricecake #tteokbokki #koreanricecake #gwangjangmarket #koreanstreetfood #seoul #seoulsouthkorea #seoultrip
