Food delivery services have become an increasing staple in the dining out scene - and with the challenges of 2020, it's made it possible to enjoy local BC food faves from the comfort of your home.
And if you're an avid DoorDasher, you might recall that, back in October, the company created a #DashSquad campaign with five local celebrities and influencers to surprise fans across Vancouver with free food and gift cards.
Deliveries were made from local restaurants across Vancouver - which, as we all know, is great because right now, supporting local restaurants is incredibly important. So important, in fact, that the DashSquad has come back to end 2020 on a high note with three exciting social media contests highlighting their favourite local restaurants!
And exactly what kind of restaurants have made the DashSquad’s list?
Mijune Pak’s top local spots include upscale Japanese sushi restaurant Tetsu Sushi; Nigerian eatery (with especially delicious meat pies) Arike; La Glace, an ice cream joint that delivers and specializes in French-style ice cream; and Takenaka, specializing in super fun temaki/hand rolls.
On the other hand, Jimbo the Drag Clown has his own list to share. His faves include Sizzling Tandoor, for their rich, flavourful butter chicken and beef vindaloo; authentic Mediterranean haunt The Village Taverna; Palagio Pizza, for their classic pepperoni and cheese; and Baan Thai for some amazing curry.
Finally, Hayley Law’s selections include vegan pizza restaurant, especially for their pie called The Ultraviolet; Sal y Limon for tacos and burritos (and, as a pro tip, try the fish taco!); Vancouver staple Cactus Club Cafe; and Fat Mao for the ultimate comfort food.
