The dining scene in downtown Vancouver has grown immensely within the past couple of months, catering to all different kinds of local foodies. For the casual, on-the-go eaters, street food vendors have been popping up all over the downtown core, selling more than just mini-donuts and lemonade. Everything from classic American favorites, like BBQ pulled pork sandwiches and fried oyster Po-boys, to fusion-inspired Korean tacos can be found on the streets of downtown Vancouver. The success of the majority of these new businesses is due to word of mouth marketing via Twitter and local food bloggers. These culinary entrepreneurs have turned to social media to market their products, often tweeting their daily specials, prices, location, and operating hours, while counting on rave reviews from the growing list of self-proclaimed food experts. So, the next time you’re shopping on Robson & Granville, walk down a few blocks, and try some of Vancouver’s finest (and, as some may argue, priciest) food.
