Well, until you get on the right board, I would offer these two: Floata, a seafood restaurant in the Richmond neighborhood (best in a group for dim sum), and: Vij's, on Granville. The latter does not take rezzies, so it is best...

My wife and I will be in Vancouver and Whistler for a few days starting this weekend. Aside from the usual, Tojo’s/Vij's recommendations. Are there any places near the Fairmont Vancouver or any place in Whistler that you...

I love Indian, and eat it all the time. It’s the obvious choice, but I think Vij's Rangoli (the take out area of Vij's)is excellent. I like the fact that you can find things that aren’t on your usual Indian restaurant...

/or dim sum, and dinner for the rest of the weekend (through Sunday night) - I loved West last time I was in town, but would also like to try Vij - is it impossible to get into without a long wait?

The place to go is Rubina Tandoor 1962 Kingsway (604)874-3621. Others here will drool over the overpriced and arty Vij's but I disagree. The place I used to go for Dosa’s is gone-so sad...

I’m not sure if this is what you mean, but Capers (gourmet/organic grocery store chain) has frozen meals from Vij's.

from the spices. Here’s a link to another recipe that might give you some more ideas for spices: http://www.vijs.ca/pdfs/vijs-chai.pdf

and dessert (your choice) for 30.00 as they are celebrating 30th anniversary. other places: Vij"s for indian saltaire provence marinaside Milestone’s, a local chain, is a safe bet for any meal, English Bay one being the most...

Would also suggest Rangoli’s at 11th and Granville. Run by vikram Vij and prices are at least 50% less than his very popular Vij's restaurant next door.

's for sure. unless you want cheap frozen australian lamb... For ethnic, maybe the lamb at Vij's?

, the Templeton, Chonqing Szechuan Seafood (dim sum). Lunches: Sun Sui Wah (dim sum), Legendary Noodle, Four Seasons Resort Whistler, Rongoli Dinners: Vij's, Tojo’s, Aurora Bistro, Fuel. A lot of great stuff here. Biggest...

in a long time. The seared sashimi grade ahi was so good we had to go back a 2nd time for dinner! Vij's was great. The atmosphere and the food made the wait worth it. We had dim sum twice at two different Kirins. We think we...

Was it Pino Posteraro? Or Vikram Vij?

favorite, on the hotel side of the city, is Rain City Grill. Fabulous food across the board, including seafood, and a great BC wine list. All that being said, my ultimate favorite restaurant anywhere is Vij's, at 11th and...

/hotel area. Friday night we had the best Indian food at Vij's in South Granville. Two hour wait — they don’t take reservations— but it was terrific. Soo good. Rangoli next door is the same owner, but they do...
