Kirin Seafood Restaurant (Richmond)

Kirin's Dim Sum is amazing. Great service and great food. One of the best Dim Sum restaurants in Vancouver. This is my go to place. Looking forward to visiting again soon

The seafood at Kirin Seafood Restaurant is very fresh. It is a very famous Cantonese restaurant in Vancouver. There are too many people, so you must make an appointment in advance, otherwise you really don’t want to queue. If you don’t eat seafood, the average cost per person is only a few dozen RMB. If you want to eat seafood, it will be a little more expensive.

It is said to be a very good local Chinese restaurant, winning awards every year, but it really feels too ordinary. It is called Cantonese cuisine but it feels like a hodgepodge. The lobster-made typhoon shelter is really too ordinary. It is said that Vancouver has the best Chinese food. Those who say this must have never been to Melbourne.

I went there when it opened at 10am and there were already a lot of people queuing up. They mainly serve Cantonese cuisine. There are many varieties of dim sum for morning tea, and there are also many varieties of rice rolls. The shrimp dumplings and fried dough sticks rice rolls taste pretty good. Maybe their taste is more suitable for Cantonese people.

As soon as I got off the plane at noon, my classmates took me to the famous Qilin. Although it was already 1:00 p.m., there were still many people queuing up. A table of people ordered many dishes including lobster and king crab. The taste was average, but the classic morning tea tasted really good, like durian glutinous rice cake and shrimp dumplings!
