My favs are the dan tat and liu tiao rice roll. Both are so good. Solid dim sum spot with an extensive menu but I couldn’t find some of the dim sum staples. We waited two hours on a Tuesday for lunch.

One of the classic, long-standing Vancouver chinese food institutions. Get the king crab during peak season if you can afford it, but the dim sum is outstanding also.

Upscale dim sum with excellent traditional and more unique eats. Try their rice rolls (fried fish, or 油條 with garlic and peanut), fried chicken cartilage, fried fish, and their durian cream mochi.

Excellent dim sum. Make sure to make a reservation as walk ins on weekends require a 1-3 hour wait!

Considering it's supposed to be a high end Chinese place, service was pretty disappointing. Much better at the downtown location.

我想说，在温哥华的部分华人是恶心的！（尤其是这家餐馆的）给了10%的小费，那个脸色即刻变黑变长，连个bye都不说了！嫌弃给的少，关键是你的服务也真的不值（一进门问前台停车的问题，回答“我回答不了你，那个停车场是shopping center的……”态度简直就是赶客；上菜期间服务员放收碗筷都是叮铃当啷的，看起来很粗鲁很急促，但那不叫速度ok？）客还没离桌，直接打开看小费给了多少留了多少，没给够！
