Distance: 10-minute walk
Price: Bowls ~$20
After starting as a popular food truck (which still roams the city’s farmer’s markets!), Disco Cheetah serves up Korean-inspired bowls that are highly customizable, depending on whether you’re feeling virtuous (greens topped with tofu cauliflower and veggies) or hungover (their Disco Poutine with crispy chicken)

MOLTAQA MORROCAN

moltaqarestaurant.ca
Distance: 10-minute walk
Price: Tasting menu $25 (lunch) or $49 (dinner)
This family-owned restaurant covers off pretty much everything: serving daily brunch, lunch and dinner, plenty of vegetarian and vegan options, incredible value tasting menus, and even live music and belly dance shows!

SOODA
60 West Cordova Street – Gastown, 604.242.3624
soodagastown.com
Distance: 30-minute walk, 8-minute drive
Price: Single-serve lunch dishes ~ $19, Sooda box ~$30
This Korean BBQ is perfect for groups looking for a casual vibe and delicious food to share. Korean classics like bulgogi and japchae are there, but where Sooda really shines is the “Sooda Box” – a half-metre-long log of rice topped with torched steak tartar and various sauces.

TORAFUKU
958 Main Street – Chinatown, 778.903.2006
torafuku.ca
Distance: 30-minute walk, 10-minute drive
Price: small plates ~ $17 – $23, large plates ~ $50
What started as the spin-off of a super-popular food truck 10 years ago, Torafuku has blossomed into a bona fide pan-Asian fusion space with dishes that take inspiration from around the continent. For a quick bite, try their legendary chicken wings and a cocktail. For a bigger commitment, the seven-course tasting menu for two to six people at $79/person is a great deal.
