Being in Vancouver, we’re spoiled by great Asian/Asian Fusion cuisine, so I decided to make it a separate category. Vancouver dominates and excels when it comes to Asian/Asian fusion cuisine. Here are the 20 Best of 2011!
Basically it’s the cheap sushi restaurant you go to when Sushi Garden turns you down. It’s no fuss, bang for your buck sushi, and it does the job on a dime. I’d stick to the rolls, more so than the sashimi, but it’s all passable for the price.
Oh… what’s that I hear? Chinese music. Yes, it is Chinese owned and operated. Although this fact may turn some people off, I’m a bit indifferent. It’s cheap eats in the area with large fusion rolls that aren’t bad for not being authentic Japanese.
There’s good Japanese food and then there’s authentic and very good Japanese food, and that’s what category Hime Sushi falls into. I didn’t get to try as much as I wanted to and several items sparked my interest, but from what I ordered the place was legit.
A nieghbourhood favourite and hidden gem! There’s a couple modern twists to some of his offerings, but Chef Ken’s style is definitely much more traditional Japanese and he sticks to what he knows and does best, so the omakase was pretty much seamless in timing, execution, quality and flavour.
It’s developed a loyal clientele of people who appreciate traditional Japanese food made with traditional Japanese techiniques. It is a neighbourhood favourite, and although it may come off as “touristy”, it’s legit and I’d highly recommend it.
It’s been voted as “Best of Surrey” since 2002 to 2006 and I just didn’t get it. The prices are very affordable, but they skimped on some ingredients and quality, so I have to say “you get what you pay for” rather than “it’s a bang for your buck”. Japanese in Surrey does get better.
