Vancouver Foodster Poutine Challenge | Vancouver Foodster
I’m starting today.
| Vancouver’s 12 new food carts locations 1. Pig On The Street: | Bringing home the bacon with British sandwiches that have piggie components. (700 Howe Street) |
| 2. Guanaco Truck: | Tamales and pupusas and fried cassava, oh my! Salvadoran cuisine hits the street of Vancouver. (Georgia and Seymour) |
| 3. Soho Road Naan Kebab: | The Tiffin Truck: A zero-waste food cart serving meat and veg curries with fresh baked naan in trendy, tiffin containers. (Smithe and Howe) |
| 4. Slingers: | Made from scratch Italian North American cuisine like meatball subs with homemade pesto. (West Hastings and Thurlow) |
| 5. Perodie Perogy: | 8 bizarre renditions of the perogy including Mexican and curried. (700 Homer Street) |
| 6. Ze Bite: | It’s unlikely Julia Child would have fit in a food truck without a custom raised roof, but luckily we have Simon Vine serving up French fare including Boeuf Bourguignon. (W. Cordova and Burrard) |
| 7. Kaboom Box: | An existing fave adds a seafood po’ boy mobile. (Georgia and Thurlow) |
| 8. Feastro: | The Rolling Bistro: Another tried and tested food cart extends into sustaiable, organic meat sandwiches. (Canada Place Way and Thurlow) |
| 9. Le Tigre: | Chinese dim sum with a twist. Expect BBQ beef in a puff pastry, bao and sticky rice. (Alberni and Bute) |
| 10. Rimfoodbaht: | Authentic Thai. Example: shrimp wraps with ginger sauce. (Hamilton & Robson) |
| 11. Mogu: | Japanese-inspired street food. The sample dish served at the taste testing event was a Pork Miso Katsu Sandwich with an Asian hot mustard coleslaw inside. (Howe and Dunsmuir) |
| 12. The Burger Bus: | Organic all-beef burgers, with gluten-free options. (Davie and Seymour) |
Ghost ad at Robson and Granville.
From Vancouverisawesome:
“Ghost Signs” are billboards painted on the sides of buildings that are uncovered after decades hidden by a facade or a building erected next door. In this case, the 90 year old advertisement is painted on the side of the Power Block, an 1888 building known to most Vancouverites my age for being the location of Charlie’s Music for almost 20 years.
Yup, I’m the guy drinking at the bar by myself. Join if you’re thirsty. (Taken with Instagram at Alibi Room)
Just got home from Alibi and the #310A. I never tire of that place.
