Yue Restaurant – Traditional Dim Sum with a Modern Flair in Richmond [REVIEW]

When you've been to one dim sum restaurant, it can feel like you've been to them all. It takes a lot of distinction for a dim sum experience to stand out to me because I'm as basic as it gets. I'm a fan of shrimp dumplings, egg tarts, rice rolls, and don't need much more to yum cha successfully.

Win Win Chick-N – Fried Chicken in Steveston [OVERVIEW]

Metro Vancouver is really good at filling food niches in its various neighbourhoods. Though this has been a long time coming, the timing couldn't be better as 2018 takes credit for 3 fried chicken openings and now Richmond's Steveston neighbourhood has Win Win Chick-N to call its own.

Hopcott Premium Meats Bistro – A Farm-to-Plate Lunch [OVERVIEW]

Pokéworks - Secret Kale Noodle Poke in Vancouver [OVERVIEW]

I've been to 5 poke (pronounced "poe-kay") shops in Vancouver and not one of them offers kale noodles as a base. At any of Pokerrito, Poke Time, Pokeman, Poke Guy, or Poke Shop, rice is normally the main base with burrito an option at some venues. If you're

1886 - Dim Sum at Parq Vancouver [REVIEW]
