Cactus Club Cafe on Burrard for Dinner

After I got some dessert from the donuts shop, I met up with Collin. Although it was a weekend, he finished his shift earlier and he said he was starving, so we decided to go somewhere close to where we were. Since he was starving, we skipped the restaurants that serve light meals.

We ended up going in Cactus Club Cafe on Burrard Street. It is across from the Burrard Skytrain station. They have various dishes in the menu.

We ordered from their regular menu.

Szechuan Chicken Lettuce Wraps
(Local Chicken, Sweet and Spicy Szechuan glaze, Peanuts, Wontons, Korean Chili Sauce, Spicy Yogurt)

This was his choice. I had some bite and liked it, although it was quite spicy. He loved this and said it was addictive. 🙂

Wor Wonton Soup
(BBQ Pork, Peking Duck Broth, Lemongrass and BBQ Pork Wontons, Asian Noodles, Baby corn, Mixed Vegetables)

He also ordered this. The broth was really salty to me, so he can’t even drink much.

Fish Tacos
(Ocean wise Lingcod, Chipotle Aioli, Shredded Green Cabbage, Salsa Fresca)

This was my choice, as I read a blog post saying it tasted so good. Yeah, I liked this. There was fried fish in the taco. As dinner, it might be small, though.

Szechuan ChongQing in Vancouver for Dinner

Collin told me that he didn’t want to cook on that day. So, why not going out? He said he felt like eating Japanese, but later he changed his mind to Chinese. There was a restaurant that I liked nearby, but it’s gone. Collin had an idea in Commercial Drive area.

Szechuan ChongQing is in the south of Broadway Skytrain station. There seem to be a similar name of restaurant on Broadway, but it has a different website.

We ordered from their regular menu.

Tea

 

Small Won Ton Soup

We each had three cups to finish it. This is small size. :O

Fried Rice with Shredded Chicken

 

Stir Fried Prawns with Red Chili Sauce

Half Cantonese BBQ Duck

 

We had some leftover fried rice and duck to go.

And, a picture of the restaurant exterior.
