VANCOUVER RESTAURANTS

VANCOUVER DINING
Our experiences of eating out in Vancouver have definitely proved to be cheaper than eating out in England. That is unless you add alcohol to the meal. Alcohol here can be very expensive, so if you want to save some dollars, when eating at an expensive restaurant don't have alcohol with your meal because if the food is expensive you may end up washing the pots to pay for your wine!. Now that we live in Vancouver ourselves we do not tend to eat out as much, but obviously when you come on holiday here you want to go to nice places to eat out most of the time.

If you are in downtown Vancouver a perfect afternoon or early evening, is a lovely stroll through Stanley Park ending up at Horseshoe Bay. On the road overlooking this beach there are several restaurants, one of which is a seafood restaurant which we have been told is good, however as we are not seafood fans, we have not experienced it ourselves. A place we would recommend is Milestones. It is a glass fronted restaurant and also has seating outside, all of which offer some fantastic views of the beach and mountains beyond.

The food here is of a general mix, its good food at a good price and you get a lot of it. It is definitely our favourite place to eat, especially in summer when you can watch the sun setting from the comfort of your seat. We love the burger and curly fries here, I am a vegi and it is by far the best vegi burger I have ever tasted. If you can manage it you should then try their white chocolate cheesecake, it's to die for. This restaurant is very popular with visitors and locals so expect to wait to be seated no matter what time you go. If when you are queuing to get a seat and you hear some English Vancourites in the queue it will probably be us moaning that everyone now knows about this place!

If you are on a tighter budget, you should still do the walk round to Horseshoe Bay and look for the hotdog stand with a red and green umbrella. This is situated on the patch next to the beach, near to Milestones. They do a great hotdog for $2.50, they also do a great vegi one. Then sit on a log on the beach and watch the sunset between the mountains, its breathtaking. You can then enjoy some of the performers along the beach. It's a great experiance and does not get much cheaper.
