“I think we should be doing a better job as a society celebrating farmers and the people who bring the food to us,” says restaurateur Dave Gunawan, an acclaimed chef who is dedicated to local, sustainable and ethically sourced products. Farmer’s Apprentice has been named one of the leading restaurants in Vancouver for two consecutive years by the judges at TopRestaurantsInCanada.com.

For health-conscious diners, it’s also a delight because of its vegetarian-forward cuisine and Gunawan’s unwavering commitment to sourcing ingredients that are organic and seasonally appropriate. Reservations are highly recommended because the restaurant is always packed.

You must order: The Octopus ($17), when it’s on the menu, is delectable.

Menu price range: $4-$26, with items changing daily based on seasonality and availability of local farm items.
