Lim Kee Restaurant 廉記牛肉粉

6943 Victoria Drive
Vancouver, BC V5P 3Y7
Tel: (604) 321-8006

Service: Interior Atmosphere: Pricing:

This tiny local restaurant is run by friendly Chinese people so their menu has a Chinese flair to it. The restaurant is long and narrow with booth seating as well as large circular tables. Their kitchen is pretty fast and they seem to have a stream of loyal local customers.

Lim Kee Beef Noodle
Vietnamese Sub ~$3.50
This was surprisingly big and surprisingly good! It came toasted and warm, fresh from the kitchen. I really like the cilantro in this sandwich, it really compliments the pickled veggies.

Lim Kee Beef Noodle
Curry Brisket with Rice ~$6
This was alright, nothing special. It came with a ridiculous amount of rice. Very generous portions!

Lim Kee Beef Noodle
Pho Beef Noodle ~$6
Tastes like your average pho.

Simply Delicious

4316 Main St (between 27th & 28th Ave)
Vancouver, BC V5V 3P9
Tel: (604) 875-9866

The restaurant is located upstairs situated between Honolulu Cafe and Voltage Land. This place is a hit or miss. The prices are quite low and they have A LOT of variety on their menu. The cheese gyoza are really good! Prices after tax will come to rounded whole numbers so you don't have to scramble for the right change. Food quality is generally good although it can be quite questionable on occasion. Portion sizes are on the smaller end of the spectrum.

Surrey, BC V3T 4Y8
Tel: (604) 589-4223

EASILY THE BEST PHO IN ALL OF GREATER VANCOUVER!!! I've tried many Pho places around Burnaby and Vancouver and none of them are as good as this place. They're always packed throughout the day but close at 9:30pm unfortunately. $6.50 medium bowl, $7.00 large bowl, $8.50 large + spring roll, $9.25 large + salad roll.

#5. Medium rare beef slices with beef brisket $6.50
Yummy! The soup from this pho restaurant is always very tasty! The meat is decent and this place always hits the spot for my cravings.

#27 Pork patty and spring rolls in vermicelli ~ $7
A very big bowl of food!. There's a lot of stuff in it, all fresh and good. The various tastes go well together. The spring rolls are a bit chewy.

Phnom Penh 金邊小館

244 E. Georgia St. (Chinatown)
Vancouver, BC V6A 1Z7
Tel: (604) 682 - 5777

This place is super famous and won a lot of awards (that you can see near the entrance) - none for good customer service. This is definitely one of those places that only have good food and nothing else... Its super busy and crowded usually. I've tried their normal pho noodles and they're alright. Make a reservation if you're coming with a party of 5 or more.

Tasty, goes best with rice. Chicken meat is particularly yummy! Last time I had it, it was a bit on the watery side.
