🇨🇦 So much amazing food in Richmond

⭐️ Bai Zhen Lou My top Cantonese restaurant in Vancouver—I always want to order the whole menu! Their white nut pork tripe and bone soup is a classic. Love the geoduck scrambled eggs, taro crispy duck, eggplant with tiger prawns/geoduck… I didn’t snap pics of everything because I was too busy eating 😂 The only letdown was the claypot rice with cured meat. ⭐️ Hao Ji Whole Lamb Restaurant No gaminess here—go with confidence! My fave is the scallion lamb stir-fry: tender, perfectly seasoned… I almost finished the whole plate alone! Their lamb skewers are juicy and well-spiced (though a bit chewy). Huge menu—still so much to try! ⭐️ Happy Valley Restaurant My second-favorite Cantonese spot in Richmond. Their wasabi lobster is plate-licking good 🦞, and the salt & pepper geoduck blew my mind! Their dim sum has always been consistent—my go-place when I’m craving yum cha. ⭐️ Pho 37 An old-school favorite. Two underrated picks: the spicy peanut broth pho (rich and aromatic) and the grilled short rib rice—a hidden gem I eat weekly! Huge portions. My brother is now obsessed too 😉 ⭐️ Shan Li Tun Just discovered their stir-fried flatbread—a carb dream! 💥 Crispy, oily, irresistible… I could make a meal out of just this. All carb lovers must try! ⭐️ Cang Ying Guan Zi Don’t let my messy photo fool you—this place is legit! 🌶️ Even though I can’t handle spice, I couldn’t stop eating. The husband-wife lung slice (cold appetizer) and small fried chicken (hot dish) are my top picks! Authentic Chengdu flavors. Heard they’ve reopened for dine-in! ⭐️ Steveston Pizza Co. A classic at Fisherman’s Wharf 🍕 Their lobster-tail + prawn + salmon pizza is massive—over $100 but feeds three. Ingredients are fresh, though the potato base and crust weren’t my thing. Not the best pizza, but definitely the most impressive! ⭐️ Wang Shanghai Cooking As someone from Shanghai, I love their traditional pastries. From green dumplings (qingtuan) to mooncakes, yolk pies, pork floss buns, eight-treasure rice… you name it! Everything is delicious (though some red bean items are a bit sweet for me). The pork floss buns are HUGE and so good—no pic because I always eat them too fast 😂 Their frozen shepherd’s purse & pork wontons taste just like home! #RichmondEats #FoodieFaves #CantoneseFood #HiddenGems #EatLikeALocal #VanFoodies #MustTry #FoodRecs
