Vancouver’s only Indigenous restaurant, Salmon n’ Bannock, opens at Vancouver International Airport (YVR) on Monday, December 19, making it the first Indigenous restaurant in a Canadian airport.
Salmon n’ Bannock On The Fly will feature the fresh, authentic Indigenous cuisine that made the bistro an internationally celebrated award-winner.
On the menu will be favourites like the Feel the Beet Salad and Urban Salmon Burger, plus exclusive new offerings that reflect the central role food plays in Indigenous cultures.
Salmon n’ Bannock On The Fly is located post-security in International Departures. And, like the bistro’s first location on Vancouver’s busy Broadway Street, it will feature works from her Indigenous artist friends.
For five years now, YVR, which sits on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Musqueam people, has held a Sustainability and Friendship Agreement with Musqueam, the first agreement of its kind in Canada.
Once open, Salmon n’ Bannock On The Fly will be available for breakfast, lunch and dinner for international travellers to experience food created by the original stewards of the land.
