The Templeton<\/strong> (web site<\/a>, map<\/a>, 1087 Granville Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone: 604-685-4612) is one of Vancouver’s oldest classic diners (with original furnishings and jukeboxes at tables dating from the 50’s). However, don’t let the classic decor fool you into thinking the food will be, well, typical 50’s greasy diner fare. The Templeton’s food has been modernized to fit the healthy lifestyle of many Vancouverites.<\/p>\n

You’ll find good selections for vegetarians such as the Portobello Mushroom Burger <\/strong>(Marinated Portobello, grilled asiago cheese on multigrain bun, $8.50) and the Pesto Grilled Veggie Lasagna<\/strong> (with organic noodles, pesto, zucchini, red peppers, fresh tomatoes, ricotta, mozzarella, tangy tomato sauce, and side mixed organic greens, $11). Non-vegetarians will also find plenty of choices here too, such as the organic, free range chicken burger, or the free range New York Striploin steak.<\/p>\n

I enjoyed The Med Quesadilla<\/span> (pictured below, made with artichoke hearts, sun dried tomatoes, green olives, aged white cheddar, fresh tomato salsa and sour cream, $11). The gigantic portion and creative ingredients made the dish really satisfying, and I didn’t miss the meat. My friend ordered the Ahi Tuna Steak<\/strong>, $14, which I’ve had before too and liked.<\/p>\n

The Templeton restaurant also serves great breakfasts (view Part 1<\/a> for a picture of their eggs).<\/p>\n
