you should try AYCE hot pot

cattle pot/claypot

Everytime i bring a white friend they end up loving it. Make sure you bring a asian friend to do the ordering cuz it can get confusing. Dont order pork "bung" btw...lol

For Indian I highly recommend Ashiana on Kingsway by Knight. Family run place that's authentic and friendly. Food is delicious! I've tried a lot of other Indian places and no one beats the quality for the money.

I think so too. Their butter chicken is more tomato-ey than creamy, which I tend to encounter at Indian restaurants. Their Pashawari lamb tikka and lamb rogan josh is fantastic.

whats wrong with stephos?? i love stephos.

LiquidTurbo 03-26-2012 10:47 PM

I'm guessing probably that it's not proper authentic greek food, more like a mass fast food type catered for the masses.

It's what Panda Express is to Chinese Food probably.

godwin 03-26-2012 11:54 PM

I think it will not be quite like Panda Express, more like Hon's.

you need to hit up western lake on victoria and 34th for dimsum like 3-4 blocks away from golden swan, then hit up hoi an across the street for lunch lol

murd0c 03-27-2012 02:57 PM

I've gone to western lake a number of times. Haven't been there in ages tho.

NG007 03-27-2012 03:40 PM

I'll voted for kisamos for consistently good Greek food and reasonably priced.

Agreed. I would much rather go to western lake than golden swan...

Sort of related.

This happened to me recently.

I said to my Italian friend. I absolutely love Italian food. To which she replied, "and do you love the people?" That stumped me for a second. Good question. I never really thought about it that way.

So I reframe it to you all too. You love Indian food, but how do you find the people? You enjoy eating Japanese food, but do you appreciate Japan's history? Think about it next time you eat out.

Thanks for your time.

Hit up Fraserview meat shop-6657 Fraser St, grab some tandoori chicken and kebobs-rent a bootleg bollywood flick--BBQ that shit up and watch some sexually restrained ethic musicals.
Tandoori King (Note: it is currently a pile of ash)
Bengali Fish & Curry - It's in Surrey, so bring your own cutlery.
Hey wanna see chinese people speaking hindi? Then hit up: Green Lettuce

If my brother-in-law's name is Manjit, then so be it.

I love Indian people and their culture. :fuckyea:

Greek food: Santali's on Edmonds
Italian can be had next door at Amorosa. Both good places with decent prices.

Korean BBQ (expensive but worth it): Hanwoori @ Kingsway & Imperial

Meowjin 03-28-2012 12:10 PM

I don't need to like the culture to like the food.

GGnoRE 03-28-2012 12:39 PM

I had a lamb shoulder dish at Mad Greek in Richmond which was superb. Would recommend to friends.

Meowjin 03-28-2012 06:34 PM

Overpriced.
