Craving a hot bowl of Vietnamese Pho? Go no further, House Special is one of the best Vietnamese restaurants I've been to, and the cleanest! Try their house special, the Duck Confit Frybread, and the spicy chicken wings!

Definitely an entire day's worth of exploration can be done at Granville Island alone! Lots of unique boutique shops can be found here along with a local BC public market! Lots of arts and culture can be felt as you browse through the entire area. It's also very easy to get to via a water taxi that's located near David Lam Park!
