Shiro Japanese Restaurant
3096 Cambie Street
Vancouver, BC
It is said that when something bad happens, something good will. During the Olympics weeks, one afternoon, I decided to visit one of the houses/pavilions located outside of the major areas (Downtown Vancouver, Yaletown, Richmond O Zone, et al). That one place ended up being the Ukrainian House located near Cambie Street, not far from Vancouver City Hall. However, by some really odd twist of destiny, the one day I went was the one day they were closed. ARGGGGG!!! OK, I did check their site but, for some reason, it appeared as open that night but, the day after, I checked again and this time, it was listed as closed. >_<
Regardless, after this epic fail, I was walking back to the Skytrain station to go home when I saw Shiro. Based on the feedback of Sherman, I knew this was a place I should visit. And this night might be as good as any other night…
