I have been ordering from Blue Diamond for years, ever since I discovered it when I moved to the Thickwood area. The food has always been on point, so much so that my coworkers all only order from Blue Diamond now. I usually get some sort of large combo for multiple people but tonight I was feeling rundown from being outdoors in the cold all day and felt like ordering soup. With my newly discovered love of SKIP the dishes I had many choices for soup but I thought "I bet Blue Diamond has amazing soup"...
I ordered a Large Wor Wonton soup and an order of deep fried salt and pepper squid. Comfort food for someone who grew up in Vancouver. The soup came in TWO huge containers, the broth probably the most flavorful I've ever tasted, loaded with veggies, chicken, BBQ pork and wontons (most places load up on carrot and onion and skimp on meat). The squid was super tender, exploding with flavor, with just the right amount of spice.

That may have infused a little bit of flavour into this overpriced, boring, lifeless, uninspired, less-than-mediocre, "chinese" food.
I honestly can't believe this place has been open as long as it has, serving food that can only be compared to boiled lawn clippings and leather boot straps. In fact, I believe the "ginger beef" may have been cut from the shoulder straps of a WW2 Taiwanese military issued rucksack. At least it was a jaw workout.
Okay okay... maybe the only redeeming quality was the freshness of the vegetables in the drab moo-goo-gai-pan, or the tenderness of the (very scarce) beef in the watery curry... but then again... no.
Would I recommend Blue Diamond? If you've read this far, I don't think I need...
