Do Chay Saigon Vegetarian Vancouver

Do Chay: Vancouver's Best Vegetarian Vietnamese Restaurant

Do Chay Saigon Vegetarian proves Vietnamese food can be just as exciting without meat. The modern vegetarian and vegan restaurant on Kingsway drew hour-long waits soon after it opened in May 2019, and its plant-based pho is regularly named among the best in the city.

Here's what to order at Do Chay.

About Do Chay Saigon Vegetarian
