Taiwanese

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!

It’s a tea house, not a bubble tea house, and it’s popular for chocolate fondue too. For me it was almost like Starbucks being run by Chinese people and there was Asian flare in the style, menu and execution of their drinks and food.

Tri-Pot is ideal for offal lovers. You pick your ingredients from their English and Chinese menu and then watch them cook it on the spot. The innards and organs are the traditional items that many Taiwanese people would go for, but they also offer less exotic items like fish balls, vegetables and noodles.

It’s not too “Asian night club” and has just the right amount of “hip” factor to make you want to stay for a while longer, or even bring your family. In a way it really reminds me of Pearl Castle. It’s clean, comfortable and the meals are decent and so affordable that you can’t really complain.

With lattes, frappes, smoothies, iced, hot and cold drinks, it’s almost like the Taiwanese version of Starbucks. It’s not really a bakery or dessert house, but they do offer a selection of packaged home made cookies, waffles, and gourmet shaved ice.

I know, from the outside it doesn’t look like anything special. However, Tony’s Beef Noodle House is one of the popular authentic Taiwanese beef noodle houses in Vancouver. It’s a hole in the wall and it’s very popular to Chinese locals living in the neighbourhood.

I have to chuckle at the name. The sign is a summary of what to order, or at least what they specialize in. “Beefy Beef Noodle, Salty Peppery Chicken & Bubble Tea”. It’s casual, open late, affordable and the food is okay with the beef noodle bowls being authentic and quite good.
