lots of great restaurants, coffee and ice cream shops. Plus still some parts of old chinatown left to see. Warning: if you walk North towards Hastings street be prepared to see a rougher part of Vancouver. This is the down town east side, unfortunately known for homelessness and drug use. Generally safe, especially in the day time, but good to know if you decide to explore.
Phnom Penh Restaurant - order the wings !!
