May 6 2022, 8:40 pm

New Vancouver restaurants? Those are our three favourite words.

We’ve gone and collected a list of all the new Vancouver restaurants you should look into trying this month.

There is always a lot of chowing down for us to do in and around our city and these new eateries make our to-eat lists longer than ever.

Here are 27 new and newly reopened Vancouver restaurants for you to try right now.

Bun Cha Ca Hoang Yen

Its original location at 5083 Victoria Drive ā€“ between 34th and 35th Avenue ā€“ has been there for the last 10 years. The tiny spot was usually packed with diners looking to enjoy its famous fish cake noodle dish. Lucky for us, the restaurant has just found a bigger location to accommodate all the interest in its authentic Vietnamese cuisine, and itā€™s just around the corner.
