If you are heading to Vancouver International Airport for a domestic flight or arriving at the domestic terminal, visit Lucky Lily Asian Brasserie at Gate C46. This recently opened restaurant is owned by SSP America in partnership with celebrated Canadian Chef Nicole Gomes and developed specifically for Vancouver International Airport.

I visited and tried several dishes and these were my favourites; the Chicken sesame slaw, Crispy Thai wings, Vietnamese Meatballs and Spicy wontons.

The Cold Sesame Noodles and Bangkok Bowl.

The Hong Kong French toast (available only during breakfast) and the Salted lava buns.

Step inside Lucky Lily, a space inspired by the spirit of Asia’s dynamic street food scene and elegance of contemporary dining. Featuring a menu of comforting noodles, Asian inspired sandwiches, dim sum, bowls, and more, enjoy relaxed sit-down dining in the beautiful space. If you’re looking for a meal at your gate or on board your flight, visit Little Lily next door, a grab and go market offering a selection of ready-made options like dim sum, steamed bao buns, rice dishes, sushi, and salads.

Chef Nicole is famous and has been featured on Top Chef Canada, won Top Chef Canada All Stars, and been a contestant on Top Chef World All Stars. She was also a finalist on Iron Chef Gauntlet and came out on top in Beat Bobby Flay.
