Pho Hoang
Pho Hoang on Main is my friends’ go to place for pho. We ended up having dinner here because our plan to dine at Phnom Penh failed.

DD Mau
I never heard of DD Mau until a couple weeks ago until Dee & my friends kept going on and on about DD Mau on our walk to Minami for dinner. I thought it was some kind of inside joke because DD Mau sounds kind of funny when it’s said repeatedly, but it turned out to be a real vietnamese sandwich shop in Yaletown. A few days later, I was back here to grab a quick bite with my friends.
Tung Hing Bakery
My coworker introduced me to Tung Hing a while ago when she was craving Banh Mi. Lucky for me she went during lunch, and grabbed some Vietnamese sandwiches and gave one to me. She’s raved about this place before, and is her favourite.
Kin Resto Bar
The cool guys at VANEATS is offering another awesome Dining Pass, and we were able to get a taste of Kindle with Kin at Kin Reso Bar on Robson.
Pho Tan’s Vietnamese
I was around the Kerrisdale area looking for something near and quick for lunch, and a quick search on Urbanspoon app, lead me to Pho Tan’s Vietnamese. This was a pretty standard Vietnamese restaurant, selling pretty standard Vietnamese food, except they were also selling bubble tea.
Goldfish in Yaletown Asian Fusion
I’ve known about Goldfish Pacific Kitchen as it has been in the Taste of Yaletown for the past few years. I finally got to go for my mom’s and brother’s joint birthday dinner. As we arrived we noticed that they had an engagement party completely with bunny ears. Anyway, the restaurant looks really cool and trendy. The decor is really nice, and the restaurant is actually quite big. I think they had an outdoor room in the back with white sofas…or at least it looked open.
Phnom Penh in Chinatown
I was introduced to Phnom Penh a couple years ago by my coworker as ‘a place that has really good chicken wings’. Ever since then, I refer to Phnom Penh as ‘chicken wings’. I went there again recently because I haven’t been in a while. And also, I wanted to eat the famous Butter Beef that I was too scared to eat last time.
Viet Sub, cheap eats on Robson
Viet Sub was our first stop on our first food walk expedition, what a place to start off the food walk!
This place is tiny, but it sells quite a few items from Vietnamese Subs, to Pho, to varies salad rolls. We decided to try a couple of their subs: Deep Fried Pork Sub and their Special Sub ($3.75).
Pho Japolo aka Pho 993
My friend has been talking about a place called Pho 99 in North Vancouver that he would go to after snowboarding. We finally got the chance to go this weekend after a day at Cypress.
Au Petit Café, grand taste in sandwiches
I was introduced to Au Petit Café last year on a lunch trip, with my coworkers proclaiming that they have “the best” Vietnamese sandwiches in Vancouver. Not that I want to hurt my coworker’s feelings, but my number 1 spot for Vietnamese sandwiches is still at Hen Long Supermarket in Surrey (reviews pending). Nevertheless, they do have pretty awesome sandwiches.
