I have frequented 3 Kirin Restaurants, Mandarin in downtown, Richmond and Cambie. I personally think Richmond draws the most HK crowd and it still has that buzz (even after 6 years since its opening). I agree with Westside Yuppie about Richmond dim sum. More selection and more action! Sun Sui Wah in Richmond is the best for food quality. I went to Shiang Garden Seafood (4540 NO 3 Rd, Richmond, 604-273-8858) a few months ago and was quite impressed. Very HK decor, good service for a dim sum place and very clean. They had the traditional dishes as well unorthdox dumplings with lobster or even pickled ginger (gari). My current obsession is congee. Any recommendations?
