:angry: Richmond's population has been steadily growing and yet the lack of choice for gwailo food still amazes me. I don’t feel like going to Vancouver every time I want to have a steak frites. Does anybody have any idea where to get good non-Asian food in Richmond, excluding chain restaurants? HELP!

Give a man a fish and you’ll feed him for a day. Teach a man how to fish and… he’ll open up his own place right across the street from yours, steal your sous-chef, talk shit about you, haggle with suppliers, undercut your prices, kiss critics’ ass, steal your clients and you’ll eventually curse the day you taught him how to fish.

There are none.

I became a much more content person when I became happy for what I did have and stopped obsessing about what I didn't. Living in Richmond gives you access to the greatest concentration of pan-asian cusines anywhere in the western hemisphere. Reognize that fact as being central for your decision to chose Richmond as home. No other community in the city can offer that.

Salade des Fruites is fourteen minutes down Granville from my West Richmond front door. How is that too far for steak frites?

And anyone that mentions any of the dismal options in Steveston should be banned.

perhaps there is an opportunity to open your own joint :biggrin:

Is that a subtle hint you are willing to invest :raz: ? Then SURE!

Has anyone heard of the Santa Fe Cafe in Richmond? Seemingly the chef is HK trained but spent time in San Franciso. I've herad they have a good wine list, steaks, and foie gras. Could be an option if true?
