<p>Vancouver, aka “Hollywood of the North&#8221;, has been the backdrop for many tv productions and feature films throughout the years. Many guests have had their own star sightings in our area. As a matter of fact, Ryan Reynolds grew up in Vancouver, in the heart of Kitsilano.</p>

<p>In the 1970&#8217;s, Chef Hidekazu Tojo invented this classic California sushi roll. For the ultimate experience, try the &#8220;<em>Omakase</em>&#8221; menu (“Chef, I’m in your hands”). However, if that&#8217;s a little too adventurous, there are other menu options too.
