Stopped by Cha Ton in Richmond and really enjoyed the food here. Just a heads-up for first-timers…read more-- it's located on the second floor of a strip mall, so it can be a little easy to miss. The seating situation can also be a bit challenging, especially during busy hours, since the dining area is shared with several other eateries. You might have to walk around for a bit or wait for someone to leave before grabbing a table. But honestly, the food made up for it. The satay beef and fluffy egg sandwich was the highlight for me. The beef had plenty of flavor, the satay sauce was tasty, and that soft, fluffy egg went really well with everything. The bread was soft too, and the whole sandwich just worked. Definitely had that legit Hong Kong-style comfort food taste I was hoping for. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal here. Seating might take a little patience, but once you get your food, it's worth it. I'd definitely come back, especially for that satay beef and egg sandwich!

I'm convinced that this food stall carries the business for half of the mall. When we arrived on…read moreSaturday morning, all the tables were packed! We decided to order take out and enjoy it at home to avoid the crowds of people. Service was quick and the large menu with pictures displayed outside the stall was helpful. All the food in the picture came out to less than $40 which is a decent deal in this time and age. I liked the broth of my macaroni soup as it was well seasoned, but not heavy at all. My boyfriend ordered satay beef vermicelli and it was flavourful and satisfying. The scrambled egg toast is a must if you love soft runny eggs between bread. It's simple stuff that can be done at home if you're really craving it, but the convenience definitely hits...That, and a couple cups of yuenyeung to save the day.

This place is a classic HK cafe for a reason. Serving up freshly baked pineapple buns and egg…read moretarts, as well as plenty of HK cafe favourites, if you only go to one Chinese restaurant during your visit to Vancouver, this place should be on your list. They are known for pineapple buns with butter and a strong HK milk tea (the way it should be!). Their fried dishes are full of wok-hei flavour, but we did find them to be on the oilier side. Main downsides? Parking in the plaza is awful. During busy times, the line goes out the door. Service is no-nonsense - 45min seating limit, so make your food decision swiftly and don't dilly dawdle.

It's a circus and pushy locals that speak the language will cut in line(to be fair that happens at…read moreother places) it doesn't make it any more pleasant. You also need to be assertive without being rude otherwise you wait to be served on. But we're here because of the reputation of the food not the vibe And? Wait for it. Yes it's good, very satisfying, flavorful, filled with quality. The pineapple bun with butter needs to shared. The humongous butter slice in the middle will kill an individual but it is worth losing some of your life. We also had the egg tart(not the Portuguese kind), Hainanese Chicken rice , pan fried beef noodle all superior to competition. Why 4 stars? 2 reasons 1. Comfort food is well comfort food even if executed well. 2. The vibe - it's in my opening paragraph. It takes away from the experience.

Further to my lunch experience a couple of months ago which wasn't too good, i decided to give…read moretheir breakfast another chance. I used to come here often with friends and families for breakfast and wanted to see whether it still tasted just as good. We each got two items from the breakfast combo, A through D. A to Cs are our usual options and upgrade to French toast. The eggs were somewhat on the drier side and i personally prefer fluffy ones. The beef noodles and the congee continue to be my favorites. The beef noodle broth is flavorful and the congee definitely comforted my soul. The items listed in D are always a miss. We have tried all items and none of them was delicious. For example, the steamed rice rolls were very doughy. Other times, they were very dry. The items in D sometimes felt like they're frozen dim sum items sold at grocery stores. Service is a hit or miss depending on which server you get. Sometimes you get servers who come and refill tea and provides actual service. Other times, no one comes by at all even when there is no tea in cups, etc.

Found abt the lobster special and had to go…read more Honest to goodness Chinese food, i tell you! Got a few things to go with the lobster special and it did not fail me. The dessert at the end was a surprise. Expecting red bean soup but got a Chinese jello instead. Prawns were amazing too. Salted egg flavour and sweet and sour pork had wok hei! Service could be a bit slower but it's a Chinese restaurant. So i get it. Everything was gooood! Portions were generous and the taste on point. The washrooms could use a bit of cleaning as well as the flooring...so had to take away a star. Would go back for sure! Overall tho, good comfort Chinese food at reasonable prices. Cheers! Happy eating!

Came here for a cozy nostalgic meal, left with a happy tummy AND a whole meal's worth of leftovers…read more Dinner portions are BIG, great for sharing or to pack extras home. Price includes drink and soup, no upcharge for iced drinks (they may have won me over with this, most spots usually add a charge) 9a baked cream sauce spinach & basa fillet on rice rice - my goodness I LOVE THIS DISH. Everything I was craving. Good amount of sauce, cheese, and fish. Met all my expectations with 50% more in size. 40a shrimps and swirl egg with flat rice noodle - good wok work, the noodles have a nice colour and char from being tossed before sauce was layered on top. I am a hater of peas and was pleasantly surprised it didn't come with it. Perfect texture and flavour, one note that shrimps have a slightly alkaline taste from the marination process. Borscht soup is tomatoey and acidic (not my pref, but well-loved by my boyfriend). Cream soup is rich and not too heavy. HK milk tea and mix with coffee are tasty. Friends ordered singaporean style vermicelli and a curry beef brisket, both looked good. $60 for 2 dishes, 2 drinks, 2 soups is real value. Will be back to this homey cha chaan teng great for some carb-heavy meals for sure!

We saw that there were groups of people waiting for a table, but since there was only 2 of us, they sat us down right away. The space is pretty nice for a HK cafe. We ordered two mini-sets: - #133 Pan Fried Spaghetti with Black Pepper Beef: Good. It was a good portion size, good flavour and decent wok-hei. Very acceptable. - #148 Shanghai Pan Fried Noodle: Good. Also a good portion size and well prepared. No complaints. We only ate half the food, and took the rest home for dinner. Service was fine for a HK cafe. Pleasant and attentive enough, but constantly in a rush. Very efficient. Overall, I was happy with my meal. It was fast, affordable and filled me up. The room and service was a bit nicer than most HK cafes, and the food was quite good. I would rate 3.5, but a slight edge up because it was remarkably better than the last HK cafe I went to. I would come back.

In my recent visit I ordered my go to dish Wok Fried Spicy Salted Pork Chop with Fried Rice. There is so much wok hay in the fried rice and the pork chop is flavourful with bits of fried garlic, chilli, green onion and cilantro on top! There is always a line up but they work super fast and they hand you a buzzer so that you can go look for a table in the food court and be alerted by the buzzer when your order is ready. Our order including a baked pork chop rice took about 15 mins. And entering was delicious!

They do sell out of some of their Cantonese roast meats, so you need to go early for those. They started us of with nice bowls of Russian tomato cabbage soup. The giant plates of char siu, roast duck, and soy sauce chicken are really good. The flavors and textures of the roasted meats are nicely executed. Our group has no troubles devouring these plates. We also order a plate of beef brisket curry rice. The curry is delicious and satisfying. The beef is soft, tender, and has absorbed all the wonderful curry flavor.

The BBQ pork and soy sauce chicken was also really good as the chicken was moist. The curry beef had big chunks of beef that weren't as tender as I would have liked but the curry flavor was nice in rice. Wanted to get other items but they had sold out early. So if you have your eye on something you should get here early.

Legendary place here. Food court stall serving classic HK cafe style food in President Plaza. I…read morecame by for lunch. between my dining partner and I, we ordered: scallion oil pork chop with dry noodles - basically a portion of dry instant noodles with 2 generous pork chops on top with scallion oil. Solid, and a ton of meat. Meat slightly too dry but still good. Noodles were nice texture. Soup noodle with chicken and pork chop - it was a build-your-own meal and we choose pork chop and chicken. Comes with a bowl of soup instant noodles. The pork chop was same as the one above. The chicken was a whole chicken thigh. Chicken was good. flavourful and well cooked. Soup noodles were fine but got soggy as they always do over time. Side of scrambled eggs with toast - eggs were good. Nice soft cook on it. Came with the noodle bowl as a combo. 2 drinks. All that for $31 all-in and we couldnt finish it between 2 people. Food is a solid 4/5. Service is as you'd expect for a food court stall. People were friendly enough but theyre super busy so they move you along. This is in the President Plaza food court so its definitely dated but totally fine for a simple budget meal. Value of this place is easy 5/5. Would recommend if you're in the area and want some affordable HK cafe food.

We only had our credit cards and I asked the person at the cash register if they take credit card, she said nope but there is an ATM upstairs at the Superstore. We went upstairs to grab some cash from the ATM out front. When we got back downstairs, the lady in charge already had reserved a table for us and immediately explained to us what is served during the breakfast hours. She gave us a few recommendations and we went with the wonton with brisket as they ran out of fish balls and the HK Style Grilled Beef with Black Peppercorn Sauce. Both items were marvelously well made, the peppercorn sauce is EXACTLY how its done in HK and all major cities with a huge HK population. But the winner is the wonton. By golly, I have had hundreds of bowls of wonton, I have made hundreds of wonton dumplings for my family's business but this one really stands out amongst all of them. The service is efficient and very friendly and they greeted so many regular customers with kind words asking about their work and family. I felt like I was entering into a HK neighborhood corner cafe.
