The 10 Best New Restaurants in Vancouver | Eater

"A lively room with a tiny patio makes for the perfect late-night pitstop to enjoy terrific Cuban-themed cocktails with high-carb snacks. The original creations include fruity numbers, such as a guava-infused Aperol with house-made geranium perfume charged with sparkling rosé, and the classics, such as the El Presidente, are done just right. After customer uproar, the team sensibly abandoned their efforts to re-jigger the classic Cubano pork sandwich with a weedy mayo-mustard mix, and happiness — and yellow mustard — is back on the menu. Non-pork eaters will appreciate the jackfruit Cubano; everyone will love the 11 p.m.-till-close and all-day Monday happy hours with discounted daiquiris and half-price oysters." - Nikki Bayley
