Beijing Cuisine

By Mijune

I might as well stop beating around the bush and just say it. Expect great food at a great price, but with the standard service you would expect from a Chinese restaurant… which is notorious for not being good. Other than that, it’s a solid find!

Kalvin’s Szechuan Restaurant

By Mijune

It’s Taiwanese owned an operated, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the chef had some Szechuan culinary experience. It’s an obvious local favourite with generous portions of authentic Taiwanese and Szechuan food at a very reasonable price.

Suhang Restaurant – Review 2

By Mijune

I’ve only come to Suhang once for dim sum before – see here, so I was anticipating their dinner since it would offer an entirely different menu. Suhang is considered a hidden gem in Richmond and it’s one of the places locals go to for authentic Shanghainese food.

Dinesty Chinese Restaurant

By Mijune

If you’re not familiar with Shanghainese food then Dinesty Chinese Restaurant is probably the perfect place to start. It’s an incredibly “user friendly” menu with a photo of every dish. It’s also very affordable for dim sum or dinner & it’s been voted “Best Shanghainese”.

Spicy Szechuan Seafood Restaurant

By Mijune

Spicy Szechuan Seafood Restaurant is a discrete restaurant in Richmond. The name suggests it specializes in Szechuan cuisine, but the menu has a lot of Shanghainese and Cantonese options and what I tried seems like it caters to Cantonese tastes.

Shanghai House Restaurant – Review 2

By Mijune

My 2nd post for Shanghai House Restaurant featuring their dim sum. It’s a solid choice offering fresh, authentic, made in house and upon order dim sum. It’s also at a reasonable price, and in a comfortable and relatively fancy atmosphere and I’m eager to try their dinner.
