Ann’s Super Local Eats (within a 20 minute walk)
Food scene
Casual takeout/dine-in:
This is our hands down most frequently visited restaurant as of late. We usually pick up a burrito when we’re busy, or having a craving. This is our favourite burrito/taco place over La Taqueria or Tacofino. Andy’s favourite is the Carne in Salsa Verde while mine has been the Mushroom. If you get the burrito, be sure to splurge on the guacamole and cheese additions, they’re worth it! Or get the tacos and get a variety! There is some seating available inside but if you are getting takeout I would recommend calling ahead to skip the line up.

Upscale dessert/cafe:
All the desserts are tasty. All of them. Get a roll of macarons, or perhaps their utterly delicious passionfruit cake. They have medium sized cakes for a special occasion with friends, or single-serving sizes for when you choose to make every day an occasion on your own. They have seating both inside and outside for when you want to take your time relaxing over a dessert and latte.

Cute cafe:
Just a couple of blocks West of Fraser and a 6 minute walk, Oh Carolina Cafe is super cute with tasty drinks and a tastier menu. Take a sandwich to eat on their patio outside the cafe, or head a block South to eat at Robson Park. You may also find some fun treats to take home.

Fancy sit-down:
Top rated French restaurant. We haven’t gotten the chance to try this one yet either, but we've heard lots of good things. If you try Savio Volpe or this one, let me know how they are! Reservations would be helpful during the weekend but are less necessary during the week.

This is a top rated Italian restaurant that is on my to-try list. Unfortunately we moved here recently during the pandemic so we haven’t personally tried it out yet. Reservations are recommended.
