In Vancouver, Barcelos is a family restaurant specializing in a combination of fast hot grilled chicken meals, sandwiches and salads, plus specific recipes focusing on Portuguese cuisine. Using the finest quality ingredients Barcelos’ chickens are marinated for 24 hours and then flame grilled to absolute perfection. Pacific Poke was started by two BFFs, Michael and Dong, after they had their first taste of poke—a traditional Hawaiian fish dish—on a trip to California. Now, chef-inspired bowls showcase products and ingredients that are found close to home, while a build-your-own model allows ultimate customization for those who know what they want. And, Railtown Cafe has been serving healthy and delicious food since the summer of 2012. The menu offers heaping portions of comfort food prepared from scratch daily by a talented team of classically trained cooks—think artisan bread loaves, soups, pastries, made-to-order gourmet sandwiches and build-your-own salads, along with house-made ice cream by the jar.
In Toronto, Chungchun Rice Dog specializes in one thing: Korean-style hotdogs. Unlike traditional flour-based batter, the use of a flour made from glutinous rice makes these hot dogs deliciously soft and chewy. There are meat and vegetarian options, and the tasty toppings include potato, ramen chips and flakes. Don’t call Cops a doughnut shop; this is a creative studio that happens to sell the sweet treats in flavours like key lime pie glaze, OG sour cream glaze, and cinnamon sugar. Or get the best-selling Hotbox, containing 36 share-worthy, fluffy, glazed doughnuts. Last but not least, Simit & Chai is the only shop in Toronto that produces simit, the most ancient form of the bagel, dipped in molasses and rolled in sesame seeds—and it’s naturally vegan! There’s also homemade shakshouka, with poached eggs, tomatoes, bell peppers and spices, for you to enjoy.
