While we do love our local businesses, it’s hard not to get excited about some of these seriously buzzworthy eateries coming to Vancouver.

From a French-inspired Korean bakery to a 24-hour automated dumpling shop, here are five international restaurant concepts that will make their debut in Vancouver soon.

Paris Baguette

Hot on the heels of its first Calgary location opening, notable bakery chain Paris Baguette has put signage up in downtown Vancouver, signalling soon it will be our turn to check out the famous brand’s eats.

With over 4,000 locations around the world, Paris Baguette, a French-inspired Korean bakery, is a dream for those who love baked goods, selling everything from beautifully decorated cakes to freshly baked bread, pastries, gourmet sandwiches, and so much more.

Set to open in Spring 2024, Fogo de ChĂŁo Vancouver is an internationally renowned chain of authentic Southern Brazilian steakhouses that will launch inside The Post.

Dished is told folks can expect an “open-air churrasco bar while watching gaucho chefs display the culinary art of churrasco as they butcher, prepare and grill cuts of protein over an open flame.”

The restaurant will have an area called “Bar Fogo” and a more formal dining room as well.

Address: 658 Homer Street, Vancouver

Marugame

Vancouver, the day has finally come! Marugame Udon has revealed its much-anticipated opening date.

The popular Japanese noodle restaurant is set to make its Canadian debut in downtown Vancouver on Saturday, February 24.

Brooklyn Dumpling Shop, aka a dumpling automat franchise, is coming to Metro Vancouver.

This means customers can get food from state-of-the-art, temperature-controlled food lockers anytime they want – it’s like a vending machine, but for dumplings.
