Thi & Joon’s Local Favourites
Food scene
Ophelia is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants, and is conveniently situated within one and a half blocks of our home. The restaurant is always a lively, but never too loud. Our recommendation is to order the shrimp ceviche tostada with a margarita of your choice. But to be honest, everything on the menu is great.

Nook is one our go-to restaurants, and not just because it’s immediately downstairs from our home. All of the pizzas are amazing, but we often order the meatball gnocchi. Enjoy!

We love Terra Breads for their sourdough chicken avocado sandwich and of course the view. A great spot to pick up an iced latte and just chill by the water, people (and puppy) watching.

The most amazing noodles within a 10 min walk of our place. I highly recommend the chicken soy or the spicy beef. Located in Chinatown, it’s a great opportunity to meet a new neighborhood.

Delicious Spanish food in an old city energy (not usual of Vancouver). Highly recommend the octopus and the brisket. Pair with a bottle of red wine and you’ve got yourself a night to remember!
