CHAU Veggie Express

This family-run business serves vegetarian and vegan Vietnamese food. It's a local favorite because when it comes to taste and satisfaction, CHAU always delivers. You may think that cooking Vietnamese food without fish sauce may be a challenge (and for many it is), but owner Maria and her mother have concocted an excellent substitute that doesn't compromise flavor. From fresh salad rolls to warm, comforting bowls of noodles and soup, the menu boasts plenty of healthful and tasty options. Each dish speaks for itself, but the reasonable prices and large portions certainly sweeten the deal. This Granville Island location is a great when you want to grab something to-go and enjoy it outside of the Public Market, or take it home.
