    The food options at the US departures terminal are awful, but it's always a treat when flying internationally as there is Salmon n' Bannock On The Fly at the international departures terminal. Salmon n' Bannock On The Fly opened in December 2022, and I have been there twice -- first in May 2023 when flying to Fiji and New Zealand and then in March 2024 when flying to Europe. As we had not yet been to the main Salmon n' Bannock location, we were excited to try them in 2023, and it did not disappoint. Although expensive, the food was excellent, and we when flew to Europe the following year, we were looking forward to eating there again. The second time we went, I had a glass of wine, a salmon chowder, and a lox sandwich. Very pricy at $50, but delicious. My husband had an elk burger ($18) and really enjoyed it. My dining experience at Salmon n' Bannock On The Fly was completely different than my recent experience at the main location. I will never go back to the main location, but I will go back to the YVR location the next time I fly internationally. I wish they had one at the domestic and US terminals!

    Get a salmon plate while waiting for your next flight. The salmon is cooked to order. It is served with a salad and a bannock. Bannock are a cooked flatbread common in Scotland. Historically, they were popular with fur traders, explorers and prospectors. Many would mix the dough in their bags and then fry it when hungry. They later became popular with the indigenous population of Western Canada. Bannock was a good source of carbohydrates. It has a delicious buttery, nutty flavor. So good and the owner was so sweet. Check this local gem out if you have a long delay at the Vancouver International Airport.

    The first time I had bannock was up at Yellowknife. It was quite nice with just jam and butter. I was quite excited to try the food at this place as it is indigenous-owned and the menu is indigenous food. It took a while to understand the ordering system. There is a small area for ordering, not at the main area. The main area is where you pick up your food. I was undecided and finally got the salmon and bannock plate. It was quite filling for $20. The plate had bannock, baked salmon and some greens with lemon aioli. The salmon was not tender nor was it dry. It was ok and the aioli and greens made it better. The bannock was also average. It was an ok meal. Nothing outstanding or remarkable about it.

    Located in the "D" terminal at Vancouver International Airport food court area, Salmon n Bannock features sandwiches made from elk, bison, salmon as well as salads, fries, drinks, fruit. and desserts. The unique "Bannock" bread is native Vancouver tribe, daily made simple bread, like native "fry bread" that is used in all their sandwiches. The food is unique, delicious and a different option while supporting the native people, who also staff Salmon n Bannock.

    The burger tasted pretty good- bison flavor but not too gamey. It was very small for the price.

    The Fish Man lived up to the hype. Reservations are helpful because the restaurant was packed, and…read morewe still waited about 5-10 minutes after arriving. We found street parking, though there appeared to be a few spaces behind the restaurant if you're lucky enough to snag one. The ambiance is bright and lively, but people are definitely here for the food. Service was friendly and efficient, with servers, runners, and other staff constantly refilling water and clearing tables. We started with the scallops and vermicelli. They came with plenty of garlic, but the scallops were somewhat overcooked and tougher than I prefer--about three stars for that dish. The mala hotpot with lingcod was the star of the meal, with a wonderful balance of tongue-numbing spice, deep flavor, fish, and vegetables. The clams were equally delicious, served in a sweet and spicy sauce that was so good I kept stopping the staff from clearing the plate so I could spoon more of it over my white rice. The yu choy with garlic sauce had an excellent crunch and plenty of flavor, making it a great vegetable dish to balance the meal. The Coedo Yuzu beer paired beautifully with the spicy food and had a pleasantly sweet, citrusy taste. An excellent meal overall and absolutely worth the visit. Enjoy!

This is the place to come to have northern Chinese style seafood, especially fish. You choose from hotpot, soup, or steamed fish and get tons of fresh choices. You can choose for the hotpot the soup, weight of fish, veggies, spiciness level, and other adjustments. It is HUGE! We chose the nonspicy soup, with package of tofu skin, lotus root, seaweed knots. The fish is pretty good. Good flavour - though I have to admit I'm not one to try the spicy, but don't worry the soy no spicy flavour is still pretty flavourful. I got some rice to go with it and I definitely recommend something to go otherwise it's pretty soupy. The other dishes were reflective of a very high quality place. - cucumber salad was excellent. I loved the peanuts in there to contrast. - I LOVED the Morel mushroom and tofu. It was amazing. The morel... wow. So succulent. Brown sauce has great balance too. - I really liked the fried rice. It's spam I think and really hits the spot. Not salty, seems just light enough. The service was excellent too. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

You'll want to make a reservation WEEKS in advance and hope for the best! Our group ordered so many delicious items, and some standouts were: Shrimp Har Gao: These were crisp and tasty, with a skin that was the appropriate thickness - and of course had enough slip to it. Yum! Pork Shu Mai: These ingredients were tip top! I'm not a fan of pork, but I enjoyed this one... whatever they marinated it in was amazing. Stuffed Eggplant: Tasty, too! I love eggplant, especially the stuffed ones. The sauce paired very well and was simply satisfying. Mushroom Noodles: This was honestly a hot mess and hot miss. It tasted very bland like airplane food... highly recommend not ordering this! Cheung Fun - The rice noodle was crisp and very satisfying. Whether an oil stick or protein, highly recommend this one. What's nice is eating here was very relaxing late in the afternoon. The overall ambiance is spacious and quiet enough for conversation. Either we got lucky missing out on the liveliness, or all the aunties with tea left before we arrived. Overall, I could see myself coming back for the dim sum... but have a little more reservation (no pun intended) when trying their lunch items.

Was able to try more dishes since we came as a larger group. Everything was great. Service is also top notch. Staff is very professional and attentive. Highly recommend calling in advance and making a reservation. Seems like if you walk in and don't have one, you're taking a chance - especially during the busy lunch time. Worth a visit if you're in town - plan ahead!

The mall was also pretty empty and you do have to go up a few escalators before getting to the restaurant. The clientele was pretty much mostly gramps and granmas on a weekday, so vibes were very chill, but I would imagine weekends are a different story. Overall, the food is excellent. Don't have a reference against the rest of Richmond / Vancouver, but it's definitely way better than the options in Seattle by a mile. You order everything with a pencil before the staff delivers the items to your table. Standouts for me were the radish cakes, which were crispy on the outside, but had super tender sweet radish chunks throughout. Siu mai, har gow, and rice rolls were just the classics done well. Nothing completely blew my socks off, but in other ways, doing so many classic items well is a huge accomplishment.
