Pho Lan is a local favourite and usually the first to come to mind when people ask for “the best pho in Richmond”. I did hesitate a bit since it failed a health inspection a few months ago and it was actually my first visit here, but I’m likely to come back.
Pizzeria Barbarella is the newest pizzeria to hit Vancouver, but it’s not the newest to hit the Metro Vancouver pizza scene. The owner is actually the previous owner of Ah-Beetz Pizza which was located in Abbotsford. It was once the only place to get authentic New York/Neapolitan pizza.

It’s the “best dim sum in Richmond” and the chef is Tony Luk, who was last year’s Chinese Chef of the Year. It’s Chinese fine dining and although slightly overpriced, it is generally very good. They do offer some unique dim sum I can’t get anywhere else too.

A preview of the Dine Out Vancouver Menu for C Restaurant ($38). The food was very good, but I personally enjoyed it much more with the added supplements and would generally prefer going on a regular night and ordering a la carte.

On the second day of Chinese New Year my true love gave to me, the “Year of the Dragon” Afternoon Tea! It may not be traditional, but it’s something new, modern and still festive to the New Year. Finish with a Matcha Fortune Cookie!

This is the “hot spot” in Richmond for the Chinese baby boomers. They come to eat, sing and dance… or in their words, “eat, sing K, and disco”. On this occasion I was caught by surprise and I ended up being incredibly impressed with the food.

With a focus on paninis, the lunch menu is rather limited and simple, but the food is homemade with care. The place is trendy, the portions are fair, and the prices are reasonable and affordable for the area, which makes BREAD an easy local favourite.
