A trip to Vancouver would not be complete without some fresh seafood.  It’s even better when it’s paired with a nice view of the water.We had lunch on Friday at Miku and it did not disappoint.

Check out these raw kushi oysters!  Yum.

We each had little bento boxes of seafood prepared different ways.  The sake on the side was also a nice touch.

This is the sushi course.  My favorite was the salmon one on the right.  It’s called aburi salmon oshi sushi.  There was raw salmon inside in the rice that had extra oily goodness mixed in plus a charred piece of salmon on top.

Dessert included a green tea opera cake with green tea ice cream on the side.  The passionfruit sauce on the side had the perfect combination of sweet and tart too.

KK got a scoop of vanilla ice cream with fruit and a cookie that was equally yummy.

The other interesting dish we had was poutine served at Costco of all places!!  The fries were double fried and the gravy was super savory.  It was a nice side dish to our usual slice of Costco pizza. 🙂

At Amy’s house, she served up a whole pig.

Her brother Eric butchered it himself in the garage and served it up in cubed pieces.  Amazing.

There’s always Tim Hortons and Janie became a big fan of the chocolate Tim Bits.  I mean, could you blame her?!

Before we headed back to SF, we stopped for lunch at Meat & Bread.  They have a porchetta sandwich served on chewy bread and a salsa verde.  They also give you a puddle of mustard to dip your sammich.  Paired with this lemonade, it was the perfect way to finish our trip.
