Discover Vancouver through its food on our Secret Food Tour: Vancouver, where every bite tells a story of the city’s unique blend of cultures, history, and flavors. Guided by a passionate local, you’ll explore the heart of Downtown and Gastown, uncovering hidden gems and iconic dishes that have helped earn Vancouver the title of “the most Asian city in North America.”
With the Pacific Ocean at our doorstep, it’s no surprise that Vancouver is famous for having some of the freshest and most innovative sushi outside of Japan. You’ll sample rolls crafted with local ingredients, showcasing how Vancouver reinvented this global favorite.
Next, we’ll dive into a true Canadian classic: poutine. But this isn’t your average version — our stop includes a bold twist that adds a little spice to the comfort food you thought you knew.
From there, your palate will travel to Mexico with an authentic taco from a family-run taqueria, bursting with flavor and tradition. The journey continues with a taste of Italy — slow-cooked porchetta nestled in rustic bread and topped with salsa verde for the perfect balance of richness and freshness.
To sweeten things up, we’ll introduce you to artisanal chocolate infused with Canadian flair, a decadent finish that highlights the creativity of Vancouver’s local makers. And of course, as with every Secret Food Tour, you’ll also enjoy our exclusive Secret Dish, revealed only on the day.
