Like a scene from Blade Runner, this frenetic street market is fun to wander for the smells, sights and neon signs that remind you Vancouver is indeed on the Pacific Rim. Go early and visit the very first Ming Wo Cookware (23 E Pender Street, 604 683 7268). Nearby, Chinese herbalists will prescribe all manner of inedible things for what's ailing you, while apothecaries and teashops abound.
