As summer fades away and the leaves turn brown, it’s that wonderful time of year to gather and give thanks under the Harvest moon.  The Mid-Autumn Festival is a harvest festival celebrated in Chinese culture and some people compare it to North American Thanksgiving.

The most iconic food associated with the Mid Autum festival is mooncake.  The mooncake is stuffed traditionally with red bean paste, fruit, egg yolk, nuts or lotus seed paste. Its round shape symbolizes “unity” or “reunion” and best wishes.

From the traditional to the modern and unique, here are a few places in Metro Vancouver that offer mooncakes for your Mid-Autumn Festival celebration.
