Frugal Traveler eats Vancouver

Submitted by on September 25, 2009 – 7:50 amNo Comment

JapaDogIf you’re relocating to Vancouver, knowing where to get cheap chow is essential intelligence.

The New York Times‘ Frugal Traveler recently turned its cheap-eating lens on Vancouver’s Asian-fusion fare, with this column, “Asian Cuisine as Diverse as Vancouver.”

Writer Matt Gross recommends Indian eatery Vij’s Rangoli, the Japanese fare at Ping’s Cafe, Japanese fusion hot dog stand Japadog, and the Hong Kong-style Cafe Gloucester, among others.

To supplement his Asian-fusion list, I’d suggest exploring Flying Tiger (which serves “street-food inspired” dishes from across Asia), Jambo Grill (mixing East African and Indian flavors), and Chili Pepper House (3003 Kingsway, 604-431-8633) for Indian-Chinese fare.

Bon appetit!
