Lemongrass chicken and spring rolls on vermicelli - $12
Tina B.

Hidden gem for sure. Best vermicelli plate I've had in Richmond. Lemongrass chicken with spring rolls and vermicelli- chicken was so good, super flavourful and grilled really well, huge portion of bouncy rice vermicelli, big crisp portion of finely shredded lettuce, cucumber, and picked veg, and crispy, tasty spring roll. $12- it's such a good deal. Well packed and fast. Friendly service. Will absolutely return to this small, local joint to try their banh mi, pho, and other Vietnamese dishes. Love this find in Steveston!

super cute and has quite a bit of indoor and patio seating…read more Large menu, I tried the sweet + salty which was French toast with egg + bacon. This was very very good. Perfect French toast and not too sweet. Also had the avocado eggs benedict which was a decent portion size and came with potatoes. There was no wait even on a weekend lunch and food was quick to come out.

Decided to take puppers out and needed a pet friendly patio which the cannery cafe had. Went inside…read moreto get a table and s it was a mon afternoon wasn't too busy. We were informed we could sit anywhere outside. By the pleasant server. We were given the menu and perused what we wanted. I ordered grandma's clam chowder which comes served in a sour dough bun hollowed out. I also ordered waffles with fried chicken. Wifey got the sweet and salty which was French toast with soft poached egg/hollandaise. The waffle I ordered also came with a soft poached egg/hollandaise. For beverages I got a regular coffee and wifey got a lavender latte. The plating was absolutely beautiful for the dishes. My first bite of the waffles and chicken was delightful. The chicken was moist and seasoned well and the waffle was nice and soft. There also was a salad on top which was dressed in a sweet dressing. That was standard as greens go. The clam chowder had a decent amount of large clams in it, the texture and creaminess was good. I did feel the base or soup stock used was a tad light for my liking as I wasn't catching the essence of clam chowder flavor. Other wise it was ok. But filling it you intend to eat the whole bun which I did cuz I love sourdough bread. Wife's french toast was lovely, I had a small taste and to me it was good. Nothing mind blowing but decently good. The hollandaise used to be tasted buttery and legit. The meal on a whole was very good and we love the patio seating. Would definitely come back again.

Since it was a freezing cold February day I don't know what went over me but I was intensely…read morecraving some quality Bingsoo and decided to check out Milky Snow. It's a super quaint spot with limited seating but on nicer days there's no need to dine in when you can just take your order outside to enjoy Steveston! I came here before for the mini tayakis and loved them, it was also a nice surprise to find that the server gave us an extra one. I really enjoyed the berry bingsoo, and when you think you've gotten through all the good stuff, you find there's an extra layer of fruit at the bottom YUM. The servings are little smaller than other bingsoo spots but I strongly feel the quality is better. But of course it's not a proper sweet treat without there being chocolate involved so we tried the Oreo croffle as well. Super flaky and solid amount of Oreo chunks, loved that too.

A few weeks ago, some friends and I decided to try out Milky Snow Café in Steveston. I liked the…read moreconcept of a Korean dessert café with savoury and sweet snacks/drinks. The space is well-decorated and gives a clean but cozy vibe. The workers there were very kind and patient as we struggled to make choices on what to order. We opted for some sweet desserts like the mango croffle and the bungeoppang (basically Korean version of taiyaki) and some kimbap. Prices were average and the items were made to order so we waited patiently at the table. The mango croffle was good - not too sweet! The kimbap was also quite delicious and filled with various ingredients. Unfortunately, our experience fell flat with the bungeoppang as when they arrived only 2 of them were hot the rest of them were cold (not even room temp). The worker mentioned there would be a delay with receiving them because we ordered 3 different flavours (nutella, red bean, and custard). I can understand the wait and if there were various temperatures of warmth but cold to the touch...I'm not too sure. Overall, I like the idea of a Korean snack café where you can enjoy various guilty eats but the execution and quality control might need to be worked on.
