The pies…read morearen't really big, they're more of an appetizer size (at least for me anyways) than an actual meal. For lunch, one pie wouldn't be enough. I've had both their Shane pie and their Aussie pie (both at $8 a pop!). The pies have a puff pastry top, making it very crispy and flaky. The bottom is a simple butter crust. It works very well together. Their Shane pie was my favourite - beef short rib, veggies, red wine au-jus, mashed potatoes. Great flavour and very tender beef. The Aussie pie consists of beef chunks and gravy. The beef chunks reminded me of a dry beef shank. It was a little bit tough, but still not bad. The gravy was nice, but didn't really wow me.

* The Definition of Torpedo *…read more Urban Dictionary has multiple definitions or "Torpedo": - To betray, backstab, diss, or punk someone with the intent of causing harm to their reputation. - When objects or people look beautiful from far away, but dangerous or ugly up close. - A long turd. The menu sounded promising (although overpriced for a food truck) with some nice classic sandwiches on offer. I ordered the "mumia" ($12) - which I have to assume is a play on Mumia Abu-Jamal who is from Philadelphia, home of the cheesesteak? Anyhoo... The description was very cheesesteak like with sirloin beef, pepperjack cheese, sauteed onions and peppers. The addition of garlic aioli moved away from the classic as did the usage of pepperjack instead of provolone. When I unwrapped the sandwich, I was torpedoed with an excessive amount of a watery oily substance dripping all over the place. It got all over everything - not in a good way. Biting into the sandwich was the next torpedoing. The bread was stale. I don't mean day old. I mean stale. Next torpedo: the beef was chewy, gristly, and very oily. The peppers were the best part - but they too were overly oily. Basically each bite gave you a mouthful of stale bread, a piece of oily gristle flavoured by an oily pepper and a drippy oily substance (perhaps a broken aioli?). I couldn't eat the bread. Tried picking off the meat and veggies to eat, but gave up as they were too awful on their own.

In other words, I feel torpedoed that this food truck is a torpedo that serves torpedos!

I've never seen these guys around Vancouver until I went to the food cart fest this past Sunday. I…read moremust say their logo catches your eye and if you say you've got epic sandwiches you've definitely caught my attention. There was a small line when I approached the truck initially but their service was quick giving customers their sandwich within about 2-4 minutes of order, not entirely sure what the standard is for food trucks but for me that's good. The lady up front taking the orders was very friendly and was happy to help answer our questions. They only offered a few options but what I had to try was the jerk chicken sandwich as I had stopped a girl just minutes before and attempted to waft hers. Again service was fairly quick and I receive my sandwich within a few minutes. I don't think the picture I've posted will do it any justice but this baby was a beauty. The bun tasted quite fresh and almost melted in my mouth, the chicken and enough spice and flavour and the rest was just bomb. It is quite filling I found which is what you're looking for, good bang for buck. Definitely gonna track these down every time I'm downtown. Amazing experience for my taste buds.

The eggs Benedict was delicious but I was surprised at the size, as eggs benny that I've gotten at other places are often quite bigger. The kale smoothie was actually so delicious and smooth I was pleasantly surprised. Our favorite item though had to be the crispy French toast. It was so light and soft yet at the same time extremely crunchy. Overall a great brunch spot prices are reasonable but there are other spots where the portions are bigger and prices lower.

"In heaven, everything is fine" The lady in the radiator song from Eraserhead, (later covered by…read morethe Pixies), is the perfect song encapsulating the feeling of eating a crêpe from La Crêpery Boheme. They have a plethora of options both sweet and savoury but my money is on the squash crepe with pesto ,feta, fresh greens and more. Bringing elation to my soul I savour every delicious bite and it feels damn fine. Great flavour combinations and quality ingredients. As far as I know they are only available at the farmers markets, and the lineups are usually quite long in the summer at Trout Lake but you can luck out at the winter market at Nat Bailey stadium (like I did today), and only a few people were in line ahead of us. P.s. It's also a really good sign when a random stranger asks you where they can procure such fine eats after seeing the wrap in your hand.

Today, hanging out at Portobello West and getting peckish, I caved to the crave of crepes. Cranberry and brie with salad and a tangy vinegrette, it was easy to mow down on the whole, slightly messy, thing! I was torn with so many choices--fig and jam; garlicy eggplant and roasted red peppers just to name 2 of their 2 chalkboards full of goodness. Blasting "musique au Francais" (*this could be spelled wrong-haha) in his purpley-pink psychedelic van with 3 crepe pans a sizzling - it's definitely a high-class gourmet-food-stand experience!

My company had an event on site today. We invited Roaming Dragon to provide food, drinks and…read morecatering service for us. They came to the Event on time, prepared the food and drinks well, and provided great service. All of our clients and staff loved the food and drinks. Food included a couple of Baos (or buns) with tofu and pork belly (2 options), some crispy chicken on a skewer and some deep fried rice balls. Drinks were three different types of sofa such as ginger ale, orange and kola with cane sugar in glass bottles. Their customer service was great and professional that they carried the food and walked around on site, made sure they fed our clients, and cleaned up the garbage making sure our place was clean and tidy before they left. Would I recommend Roaming Dragon to others? Yes!

My favorites are the crispy chicken burrito and the crunchy carnitas tacos or the albacore tuna tacos. They are all very freshly and tasty. The albacore tuna feels like a mexican-japaneqz fusion taco. Meanwhile the crunchy carnitas taco has a more mexican feel. If you are really hungry the burritos are a safer option, ordering 2 tacos might be too might for some.

The Thai cashew cauli wings taste exactly like deep fried wings smothered with bbq sauce. Large crispy morsels. Then there's the Korean bulgogi and Chinese mapo tofu. The flavours will meld together nicely on a bed of rice. Miso rice apparently but I can't taste the miso in it. The kale salad on the side was dressed with a creamy dressing. Kale needed some slicing as it's rather hard to chew through large thick leaves and the dressing needed to be massaged into the salad. Other than that, the meal was filling and absolutely delicious. The service was A-fantastic too.

I've been going to Wak Wak Burger since they used to be called $2.75 burger. I got the regular…read morehamburger ($4.75) and the okopote fries ($6.95). I always get the regular hamburger as its a no frills burger that does the trick. It satisfies my burger cravings perfectly. The bun is toasted with butter on the grill. The patty isn't thick but they grill it so that there's a nice crust on it and it adds that extra chew and flavour. They give you a generous amount of ice burger lettuce which makes it refreshing and I'm a suckered for any burger with ketchup on it. This was the first time I got fries and they didn't disappoint. They weren't as crispy as I would have liked. But I loved the sauce and the addition of the Bonito flakes. These were crazy addicting Overall I would like to keep this a hidden gem but I'm sure everyone already knows about it. They show up either at Kerrisdale, river district, downtown or Olympic village. They update their Facebook page regarding their whereabouts everyday at 11am. If you want to catch them, you can check there

Turns out Wakwak Burger serves up Japanese-style street burgers, and it was such a fun, affordable treat. The Food: I went with their popular Teriyaki Cheeseburger. The flavor combination was amazing, savory patty, sweet and savory teriyaki sauce, and melted cheese packed inside a soft bun. For the price, the value is unbeatable! The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that it gets super sauce-heavy and a bit messy to eat on the go, but taste-wise, it was worth every napkin. The Service: The staff working inside the truck were super friendly and quick! My burger was ready in just a few minutes, piping hot fresh off the grill. The Ambiance: It's a classic street food truck setup right on Granville St. There's no proper seating, so it's purely a quick grab-and-go spot. Great vibe if you want to soak in the energy of downtown while grabbing a quick bite. Definitely a solid, budget-friendly food truck find if you love burgers with a unique twist!

The Hawaiian Garlic Shrimp Fries was one of a kind. The sweet and tangy sauce was actually a very interesting and nice pairing to the fries. The shrimp was bouncy and not overcooked.

The Quesa Birria Tacos was the best thing of the bunch. A MUST try item! Juicy meat fillings with all the fixings, the fresh tortilla was pan fried nicely so it had nice crispness, and the secret weapon, a hearty meat jus, elevated this dish to another level. The Japanese Popcorn Chicken had a lovely crunch in the coating and seasoned so well. A really wonderful meal!
