Clubhouse Japanese Restaurant (web site, 255 West 2nd Avenue, Vancouver, phone 604-879-8998) has an eclectic set of menus with everything from the familiar sushi rolls, sashimi, and teriyaki, to more exotic rolls with ingredients such as cream cheese, and names like “Appetizer for Sumo Wrestler” and “Happy Unagi Roll”. Don’t miss the house specialty, which is okonomiyaki (pictured below) – also known as Japanese pizza - a crepe-like creation made with seafood or your choice of other tasty ingredients ($7.95). Their drinks are excellent too: on a hot day try one of their daiquiris made with fruit slush and rum ($5.25), or one of their non-alcoholic fruit slushies ($3.65).

I went back to the Hamilton Street Grill (1009 Hamilton Street, Vancouver, phone 604.331.1511) and enjoyed the Chicken Quesadillas ($10, pictured below). For more info about this restaurant read my original review.

Milestones is a popular chain of trendy restaurants in the Vancouver area. The Yaletown location (1109 Hamilton Street, 604-684-9111) offers casual dining in a hip atmosphere. I ordered the Seafood Fettucini, which was $16.99 plus tax. Made with Cajun spices, the pasta was very tasty.
