Food cravings are legit serious, and from common people to celebrities, all can relate to them. In the past, when the Princess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, was pregnant, she reportedly expressed her cravings for spicy Indian food, which her chefs cooked for her throughout this period. It was a craving only that took Meghan Markle and Prince Harry to the famous Indian restaurant Vijs in Vancouver during her pregnancy days as well, where they dined the spicy Indian food. They dined along with the musician Michael Bublé and his wife, Luisana Lopilato.
It is reported that during her pregnancy, she had eaten only Indian food.
The owner and head chef Vikram Vij of Vijs recalled, Meghan said that during her pregnancy, she had eaten only Indian foods. He said that they are “amazing, extremely beautiful, and very friendly.”
In his Instagram post, he mentioned, "When food brings people together, magic happens! We were honored to once again welcome Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, Michael Bublé, and Luisana Lopilato for another unforgettable evening at Vij’s. Sharing great conversation, incredible flavors, and the joy of coming together—this is what dining is all about! A special night made even more meaningful as we celebrate the opening of the 2025 Invictus Games—a powerful tribute to resilience, courage, and the human spirit."
In the post, we could see shahi paneer, eggplant pakora in yogurt curry, stuffed paratha, vij's chaat salad, and more from the menu of the restaurant.
“They spoke with the kitchen staff and were very respectful, allowing me, as the chef, to choose the meal,” Vij said. “I told them I’d put something together, and ended up serving three or four appetizers along with several main courses—of course, infused with Indian spices.”
This was not the first time the Duke and the Duchess dined at this restaurant. They dined here with pals Bublé and Lopilato in February 2024 as well. In an interview that year with PEOPLE, chef Vij recalled Markle telling him that she “loved spiced food” and she even asked for extra chili during her meal. At that time, he said, he put together "three or four appetizers” for the royal diners along with a host of main dishes “obviously with some Indian spices."
In a photo, Meghan and Prince Harry, 40, posed with Vij and restaurant staff in the restaurant's kitchen.
