The Scene: Amidst one of Vancouver's busiest intersections at Broadway and Cambie, Singapore Restaurant is the perfect lunchtime stop for quick and cheap savoury Singaporean flavours. Must-try dishes include Inche Kebin Ayam, Rendang Lembu, Char Kuey Teow, and the spicy Singapore Eggplant. With all day specials starting at $3.99, the restaurant is packed for the entire peak lunch period, when table-sharing is not uncommon. Open for dinner 7 days a week, enjoy the same low prices without the line-ups. Good to know that a dinner for two with change from a $20 doesn't have to come from a drive-thru window.
