But one of the cons was finding parking which is a major deterent for us, unless we decide to head out first thing in the AM. This time, my wife had the opportunity to try Harvest Noodle and Dim Sum and picked up a couple of things to try out. And one of those was a bag of 50pcs. Chicken & Vegetable Dumpling. She boiled and pan fried 2/3 them, Gyoza style. By the time I came home, there were only 4pcs left. The kids devoured all but 4pcs. Proof is in the photo. Well, at least they left me some. The dumplings/Gyozas are very tasty and flavourful. The dough had that perfect chewyness. I think we have a new place for our Dim Sum supply needs. I can't wait to get more and try the other stuff.

Nestled behind the Richmond Auto Mall, this is a wholesale warehouse. Under recommendation of other…read morehome chefs, we ventured here on a rainy afternoon. We walked into an office like environment and one of the sales person came forward to help us. He gave us a copy of their current price lists and we told him what we were looking for.. He then went back to the warehouse to bring out what we think we wanted, he also recommend alternate items with smaller packaging. Not all the items they stock is on the price list. Just ask for what you want, some items, they can break up the package, others they can't. If you have a big freezer and love seafood, the prices are very competitive and he is knowledgeable about Ocean Wise products and the quick flash method. Great place to stock up to prep for Chinese New Year Cooking. If you want any special items, call first to make sure they have it in stock before going there. Our sales person was really good and help us carry everything to the car. They take Cash or Debit only.

I was impressed by their large variety of vegetables including Asian veggies, & some I hadn't even seen before. Their prices are reasonable and look decent. I bought a watermelon which I would avoid. It was mushy on the inside. It's not only at this place but I found it to be the same everywhere. It's because it's overripe. They are located right across from the Richmond Nature Park with free parking out front. They even have shopping carts to lighten the load. A bonus! The place was clean and service was okay. A great place to grab that missing ingredient to create a meal or buy flowers for a special occasion. It's rare to find a market that sells a lot of local produce & fruit. All I can say is support local farmers and businesses!

They sell small plants and herbs for your garden in the back. They also sell huge bags of potatoes in several varieties, onions, hot peppers, Hungarian peppers, dates, eggs, turmeric and more.

Ambiance: it is very inviting, no one feels out of place, limited seating, nonetheless , it is not the worst, the set up of the taste flight really sets this establishment apart from other coffee maisons.

It's also connected with Fife bakery so there are plenty of delicious pastries to try as well! The barista there was very nice and took the time to casually chat with customers whenever there was a lull, and the general atmosphere felt very calming. The only concern is how small the place is. Although I managed to get a seat, the place was almost entirely full and felt a little crowded with just around 5-10 people. But the seats are cute and also feature hanging hooks for jackets and bags which I loved very much!! Makes everything so much more convenient. All in all, a very great cafe to sit and chat with a friend over a cup of coffee～

Other than that, you can be assured to be able to find lots of ube-flavoured snacks (my absolute favourite) and unique ingredients, especially in the frozen section.

I bought into the social media hype and regret it a bit lol. The seafood platter looked grand and good, but because it was cooked in flavorless broth, it was just disappointing. The congee that they make it with the leftover broth at the end was the only saving grace in terms of flavor. Oh, and the black sesame ice cream, but beyond that, this is a one time thing for me. Even in Canadian, the price didn't feel justified. If you still want to come here anyway, definitely try to make a reservation. We were lucky enough to be sat without a reservation for how large our party was. Service was good though, lol.

The shop is small and selection isn't the biggest, but it's enough. They made a fresh batch of marinated butter chicken so I bought that along with the sauce. I wanted and tried their garlic chicken. I wanted to try the goat meat too, but we didn't have a lot of people for dinner that day so decided to come back another day. The two types of chicken that I cooked up at home were so flavorful, juicy and delicious. The chicken and sauces were freshly made so it probably made a huge difference too. The man working inside the shop that day was friendly and took his time to explain each item. He was happy and appreciative of the reviews I told him about on Google as well. I'll be back next time to try more things.
