Updated vibe, old Chinatown cooking. Excellent interior and service paired with traditional Chinese BBQ (not a common thing!!)

Cutest brunch spot ever, especially when it's sunny out. People go bonkers for the ricotta pancakes and breakfast hash. My fav is the turkey sandwich with a fresh OJ!

Neighborhoods

Chinatown is a hip, artistic neighbourhood in Vancouver. You'll be surrounded by all sorts of top-rated food and coffee spots such as Juke Chicken, Bao Bei, Kissa Tanto, Nancy Go Yaya, Hunnybee and Ramen Butcher, to name a few. There are also authentic Chinatown classics such as Chiatown BBQ, Sun Fresh Bakery and Maxims, among so many others. It's a short walk or drive to other popular hoods such as Gastown, Commercial Dr, Mt. Pleasant, Olympic Village and the Downtown core. Truly a gem of a neighbourhood for any length of a visit, but especially a short one if you want to see it all.
