It was not too crowded when we were here, and so managed to keep our reservations despite being late (due to snow and traffic conditions). We were seated fairly quickly and the service was decent. They came round often to refill our tea. The food came much later, probably because they had a lot of take-out/delivery order to fill. I had the beef roll which was a signature. The hoisin sauce and green onions/leeks in it reminded me of a peking duck wrap. It was a bit too greasy for my liking though. I also tried the chicken noodle (we changed to rice vermicelli) soup which was very light tasting but equally good. My friends who are gluten intolerant love this place as they can replace the regular noodles with rice vermicelli, and so have more options available. Good place for those who are gluten intolerant. This is a cash/debit payment place.

So. I'm a huge fan of the Food Network TV show Triple-D, (Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives), granted I haven't been able to get to all of the places Guy Fieri visits in my local area. As luck would have it during our last trip to Vancouver I just happened to see a sign out front with Guy's face on it. I recalled the show he did on this place and just squealed and knew we had to stop. This place is AMAZING!!! Well minus 1 Yelp star for the crappy parking in the general area. And the weird signage of not accepting credit cards, but once they realized we were tourist they said no problem?!?! Whatever.5 stars for the food! We opted for several dishes, I have stopped eating beef and one of the main items Guy tried during his visit was the Peaceful Beef roll, we opted for the Peaceful potato roll instead. The potato was a tad under cooked which made for a crunchy texture in the dish, flavor wise had it not been for the sauce it was just interesting, nothing like Guy's experience with the beef version. Oh well. We also started with the pork pot stickers, now that was a show stopper, and were some of the best I've had in a very long time. Juicy and plump full of pork, to quote Rachel Ray, YUMMERS!!! Our main dishes were Sichuan string beans, Spicy pork with garlic stems, General Tsao's Chicken, Seafood soup noodle with homemade thick noodles, and a beef dish which the name escapes me since I didn't try it. Each dish had unique flavors, were very fresh and tasted delightful, it was so good we didn't have any leftovers to speak of.burrrrp.oh man, I'm craving this place again!! Service was okay, waitress had to be hailed down to place our order, kitchen kept up the pace, it was a tad busy. We'll be back for sure, granted I'll let someone else fight for the parking spot next time. After our visit I realized this is the second location the owners have opened, well so I didn't really get to sit in Guy's seat, I'm still checking it off on my "Triple-D list".

Food is not bad. It is on the pricier side for Chinese Shanghainese Dim Sum. But I guess they factored in the location and the advertisement from Guy, they can charge more. But their food is not bad. If I had to compare to their Broadway location (which is the location that Guy visited), the Broadway location definitely taste better. Portion is ok size. Not like big or anything. However like I said I do like their food. We did find it ironic why they gave us the same vinegar and told us its for this and then bought it again and said its for that and told us its different. When its almost all the same except the one for the xiao long bao has ginger in it, the one one for the pork bun has black pepper in it and the one for the gyoza is plain vinegar. We were a bit scratching our heads. The skin on the xiao long bao is not like super thin like how some restaurants in Richmond makes it. The Gyoza are a bit burnt but overall it still taste really good. The bottom is crunchy. Which is quite yummy. We ordered a stir fried noodle and we get to pick the kind of noodles that we want, we got the knife chopped noodles (which we were not exactly sure how it would turn out). So they have options on the noodles but we didn't like the knife chopped noodles. We actually prefer thin noodles. Overall that was quite tastily because the soy sauce is very dense and the noodle absorbed the flavor. We also got a beef soup noodle. I like how the beef is nice and tender. I only had a bit to try because my dad ate the whole thing. He loved it. On top of that we got the wonton in soup. The soup was yummy as if it was like miso soup (that is how my sister described it). Very flavorful soup. It is the same soup as the beef noodle. The pork bun was one of my favorite dish because the botton was crunchy and some how I really like starch. Ok! well anything bread or bun, I liked. Decor is not bad. Its nice and clean. You can see inside the kitchen from the kitchen window. So you know its clean. Its interesting how its a trend these days to have Asian restaurants to have that design. Its like an enclosed open concept but at the same time, it give you confidence that you know the place is clean and good. Overall, I will definitely be back.
