Paul Vancouver/Daily Hive
It’s been over a year since we told you that a legendary French name was officially setting up shop in town, and now, PAUL Vancouver has opened its doors. The 131-year-old bakery café originated in Northern France. Founded in Croix in 1889, PAUL now operates 620 shops (branches and franchises) in 34 countries. The bakery is known for offering its customers the “art of living French-style” via its signature menu of bread, pastries, macarons, sandwiches, and more.

Granville Island is about to get a new dining destination: Alimentaria Mexicana is slated to open in the former Edible Canada space this June. The new concept is brought to us by Mexican-Canadian Chef Ernesto Gomez (Chancho Tortilleria, Nuba, Fayuca) and promises to offer patrons an authentic taste of Mexican via dine-in, takeout, and retail options once it opens its doors. Alimentaria will also boast an educational space, as this project aims to inform customers and support local and international artisans and suppliers.
