Still on Commercial drive, JamJar Canteen moved a few blocks south of it’s original location. They’ve also opened 2 other locations since, 1 at UBC and the other in North Van. JamJar gives you traditional Lebanese dishes using fresh local ingredients. Friendly staff in a casual fun environment with quick service. At some places dishes are meant to be eaten at the restaurant and just don’t travel as well for take out and although we had the time to stop in for lunch you can also get JamJar delivered. The food here would be equally as good at the comfort of your home, or wherever else you take it. We had the following 2 dishes :
Chicken Shish Tawouk (GF)
Yogurt marinated chicken thighs, garlic, lemon, oregano, spices with brown rice, fattoush salad, hummus and pita.
Falafel (VE, GF)
Chickpea dumpling, garlic, onion, cilantro, parsley, spices with brown rice, fattoush salad, hummus, muttabel, and pita.
