"Mr. Red Cafe" is the 'quintessence of Vietnamese cuisine'. This restaurant is just simply delicious. Let me tell you, it's not typical Vietnamese fare...

"Medina Cafe" is the place to get brunch in Vancouver. The menu is inspired from classic French dishes with some Middle Eastern flavors. Oh the fricassee!

"Victoria Sushi" in Vancouver is a neighborhood sushi restaurant in New Westminster. You really can't get more local than this. My favorite? The mackerel

"Soft Peaks" and the soft serve at this Vancouver cafe is like no other. The signature flavor, and my personal favorite, is the honeycomb peak...

"Purebread" - when you walk inside this Vancouver bakery, it's the smell that hits you first. It's all about bread & pastries. I recommend the lemon bars.

"Gyo-O" is no ordinary Japanese restaurant in Vancouver. You won't find any of the typical rolls here: they specialise in fish dishes and rice bowls...

"Kazu Japanese Restaurant": worth the trek across Vancouver for its sushi. Their set bento boxes are great value for money, but I like their chirashi don.

"Viet Sub" in Vancouver is the snack bar I go to when I'm after a cheap but tasty bite downtown. Do try one of their varieties of bahn mi...

About me
Hello! I'm Adelina, a globetrotter and digital marketing specialist. By day, I work in marketing, helping brands tell their stories using social media and online platforms. By night, I run a travel blog called Pack Me To. I have been traveling for as long as I can remember, living abroad in the Netherlands and Hungary.
You can often find me behind the camera lens or out exploring new places. When I am not out exploring the world, I enjoy trying out new recipes in the kitchen, participating in pub quizzes and exploring my hometown of Vancouver.
Why Vancouver?
Vancouver is a beautiful city with its snow capped mountain backdrop, long sandy beaches and a melting pot of cultures and delicious foods. There is something for everyone in the city and there is always something to do whether it is exploring nature or trying some new type of cuisine.
I love that the mountains and trails are only a short drive away. I love that a swim in the ocean is possible (albeit a little chilly!). I love that no matter how long I am away from Vancouver, I miss it and look forward to being reacquainted.
