Bandidas Taqueria brings fresh, handmade Mexican fare to Vancouver, with a menu of authentic cuisine that earned the restaurant Golden Plate honours in 2010 from online readers of the Georgia Straight as one of Vancouver’s best Mexican restaurants and the best new East Side restaurant in the city. Vancouver’s vegetarians and vegans in particular will find much to celebrate on Bandidas Taqueria’s menu, because all dishes are meat-free and many can be modified to vegan with a simple hardware hack. Kick things off with a large order of chips and salsa ($6), the spicy tortilla soup ($7.50) containing roasted tomatoes in a rich vegetable stock, or a breakfast burrito ($7) enveloping scrambled free-range eggs and Bandidas’ freshly made salsa. Bandidas’ tacos and burritos, available with rice & beans ($2 extra) or a side salad ($3), use handmade corn tortillas and whole-wheat tortillas, respectively, to house fresh ingredients such as the pinto beans and jack cheese of the Laura May ($9 for five tacos, $6 for burrito) or the spicy breaded walnuts and pinto beans of the Camillo ($10.50 for five tacos, $8 for burrito). Brigades of brunchers can opt for Bandidas Taqueria’s daily brunch, featuring items such as huevas rancheras ($10.50) with free-range eggs atop handmade corn tortillas, and the Hicks Benny ($11), with free-range eggs, fresh guacamole, and your choice of salsa atop cornbread muffin tops. All Benedicts, or Bennys, can also be made vegan, with butternut squash and organic tofu replacing eggs. Wash down your brunch with beer or wine, all from breweries and vineyards in British Columbia.

Mr. Pickwick's bestows the British staple of fish & chips on Vancouver foodies with a menu featuring the fried favourite, as well as other classic pub palate-pleasers. Hoist the two-piece halibut ($14.98)—straight from the waters of the Queen Charlotte Islands—and chips into your culinary cargo hold, or sample the two-piece North Pacific cod ($7.98) with chips. Other meals include chicken strips and chips ($10.98), steak and kidney pie ($10.98 with chips), and bangers and mash ($7.98). Health-conscious diners will be sure to round off their meal with a deep-fried Mars Bar ($2.68), containing the suggested daily intake of batter and decadence.

The Wallflower offers health-conscious foodies a contemporary take on classic diner grub with a newly developed menu marked by vegetarian-, vegan-, and celiac-friendly victuals. Stir awake your stomach from a hungry hibernation with an appetizer such as poutine ($9), hummus and eggplant dip ($9), or Yorkshire puddings ($10) packed with roast beef. Or, hold out for one of The Wallflower's burgers, such as the thousand-island-dressed Ordinary burger ($11) or the Portobello burger ($11); all burgers and sandwiches are served with fries, greens, or a Caesar salad and offer options for veggie-burger patties and gluten-free buns. The Wallflower's entrees traverse the terrain of tabletop traditions—the Mac 'n Cheesey ($11) uses vegan cheddar in its nest of noodles, and the Meatloaf Wellington ($15) pairs its meatness with a puff pastry, vegetables, and mashed potatoes. Other entrees include fried chicken ($14) and a tomato-basil quesadilla ($12). Barons of breakfast will find food-filled satisfaction in the diner's brunch menu, with omelettes ($7) and crab-cake benedicts ($12) making appetizing appearances.

The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver is chock-full of cheer during the month of December, with a slew of holiday meals and activities planned.

You’ll also get a freshly made dessert. Meals can be fetched and escorted home on December 24 or 25, and must be ordered at least five days in advance.
