Finding Authentic Chiu Chow Cuisine

This is definitely a hidden gem. If not by word of mouth, I have absolutely no idea how one would stumble upon this place. It’s hidden in the industrial area near Steveston Highway and pretty isolated from the shopping centres close by. In fact, it seems as if it’s the only restaurant in its area. My mom is a huge foodie. She really knows Richmond well, especially for dim sum because she goes EVERY day. This is no lie. One of her friends told her about this place and after trying it a few times and enjoying it, she decided to take us there. For me, I love it because it’s a mom and pop restaurant so it’s super home-style. The food isn’t very expensive, but it’s very authentic. Some of my favourites include the marinated soft-boiled eggs and duck wing… It’s really good. The soup is also a stand-out for the price because it’s not too salty but very flavourful and traditional. I definitely would recommend checking this place out if you are sort of tired of the central Richmond restaurants. It’s a little adventure finding it, but it’s a nice change of scenery (or lack of). Also, if you are coming back from the States, it’s a nice place to drop by for dinner since it’s sort of on the way. Note, we had the cold crab, but be sure if you want it to make sure to call one day in advance to get it! Salted Vegetable, Bitter Gourd, and Spare Rib Soup Soy Egg and Soy Smoked Tofu  Soy Duck Wing  Chiu Chow Style Cold Crab    Pan Fried Bean Sprouts and Chives   Oyster Pancake   It’s always a feast with your family… Happy eating!
