Prima Taste Restaurant (570 Robson St. Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone: 604-685-7881) serves authentic Singaporean cuisine in a modern, stylish Robson street location, just east of the Future Shop on Granville and Robson. I enjoyed the Seafood Platter ($17.95, pictured below) which included a wonderful selection of seafood including prawns and squid, as well as spring rolls, rice, a tasty Singaporean condiment served cold (that I think was made of chilis), and a garnish of carrot.

A reviewer on Dinehere.ca writes (click here for review link):

I had lived in Singapore for 30 years before transplanting myself to Vancouver. For years I craved the savoury and south-east Asian flavors that uniquely belonged to Singapore, because of its modernity and ability to fuse cosmopolitan flavors. Anyway, I got really excited when I heard that this new restaurant opened. I had been disappointed many times by establishments flaunting the “Singapore” brand of food […] TEARS ROLLED DOWN MY CHEEKS and dripped into my soup as the first spoonful of Hainanese Chicken Rice entered my mouth…My only complaint is that the condiments of chilli, dark soy and ginger were too little.

Milestones Restaurant (web site, 1109 Hamilton Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone: 604-684-9111) offers contemporary Pacific Northwest cuisine in a trendy, upscale atmosphere. Pictured below is the Seafood Fettucini ($16.99), which was really yummy! More photos: Part 3, Part 2, and Part 1.

Ezogiku Noodle Cafe (270 Robson Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone 604-685-9466) serves bowls of hot, steaming Japanese ramen noodle soup. A bowl of ramen soup costs around $7.25 plus tax, and you can also order some appetizers such as pan fried gyoza dumplings. I enjoyed the Kimchi Ramen (pictured below), which featured the traditional Korean spicy cabbage as well as barbecued pork.

Ezogiku Noodle Cafe is located near the Vancouver main library downtown, as well as BC Place Stadium, home of the BC Lions Football team. It’s also a short walk from GM Place Stadium, home of the Vancouver Canucks hockey team. The restaurant is within easy walking distance of hotels such as the Rosedale on Robson, Westin Grand, and the Hampton Inn and Suites.
