Lumberman's Arch Concession

 Was spending my day at Stanley Park on this gloomy Sunday afternoon. I did not pack a lunch so I expected to be gouged by the food in this tourist area! It was around lunch time, and there were only a few customers at the concession stand beside Lumberman's Arch: a few humans, a raccoon, and some hungry crows anxious to grab food from unsuspecting tourists.


I have had a hot dog at Stanley Park before, and it was actually pretty delicious, so this time, I decided to try something different. I went for a food that I always want to eat, but rarely eat for whatever reason:






Small Fish and Chips $6.95     3.5/5

+

• Fries were delicious, very hot and fresh off the oil fryer; I'd say the fries are better than McDonalds and A&W, but not as good as New York Fries
• Fish frying paste was very crispy
• Food was freshly cooked, I saw them making it in front of my eyes
• Fish had a good texture
• Not too oily

-

• Some of the fries had black over burned bits, not very healthy, but still delicious
• Fish tasted bland; but I guess this is healthy 

Overall: I'm actually really pleasantly surprised at the food I got for the price. I honestly expected really bad fish and chips, but they were definitely passable. My view on Stanley Park Concessions has changed :)
