Sometimes, a little solo lunch is exactly what you need — especially when life gets busy. Today, when my husband got into a meeting, I found myself with a little free time and a craving for some comfort food. So, I headed to Peaceful Restaurant in Kitsilano.
Sitting there by myself, I ended up stress-eating two of my go-to comfort dishes: Dan-Dan Noodles and Peaceful Beef Rolls.
The Dan-Dan Noodles were exactly what I needed. They’re served in a rich, spicy, and tangy peanut sauce that clings to the noodles, creating a perfect balance of heat and creaminess. The minced pork added a savoury depth, while the fresh spinach gave it a light, refreshing contrast.

Alongside the noodles, I had the Peaceful Beef Rolls — one of my all-time favourites. These rolls are filled with beef that’s tender and flavourful, perfectly balanced with sweet hoisin sauce. The beef is wrapped in a crispy green onion flatbread, which adds both crunch and a subtle oniony flavour that pairs so well with the richness of the meat.
Even though I was alone, the familiar flavours of these dishes were the best kind of company.
