Bean Banh Mi: Modern Banh Mi Offerings

A couple of years ago, I noticed that a new Banh Mi placed opened up in the former haunts of Tung Hing on Kingsway but it hasn’t been until recently that we were able to try out Bean Banh Mi. I was a bit intrigued by their name because I don’t normally associate beans with banh mis. However, I did quite enjoy watching the episodes of Mr. Bean that they had playing on the overhead tv screen while we waited for our orders to come up.

Hiel Cafe: Newish Cafe on Burnaby-New West Border

Hiel Cafe is located at the busy intersection of 6th Street and Tenth Avenue on the Burnaby/New Westminster border.

Chachi’s – Pulled Pork with Mac Sandwich

Fondway Cafe – Hot Matcha Tea Latte

Zee’s Grilled Cheese – Cheesy Steveston

There was a time when the only food you could find around Steveston was fish and chips. Now, don’t get me wrong… I love fish and chips. But, sometimes, you just get a craving for something ooey and gooey. And what could be ooier and gooier than grilled cheese?
