| The No. 9 Thread! What do you eat there?
so I moved to richmond within the past half year... or more or something rather.
I've been going to No 9 a lot since my hours are pretty fucked and I'd rather not eat mcdonalds or pho everynight.
No 9's menu is fucking huge, which got me thinking, there must be a lot of decent items that i'd probably never order.
so here we go.
everyone list your favourite or most ordered dish.
for those with a shitty ass memory here you go: http://www.richmond9.com/menu.php
try to list the number of the item or have the exact item. chinese is accepted as long as you type out the pinyin or honger canto phonetics as well.
I order:
-340: No 9 delux Burger (I swear it's good. I SWEAR. if you want a greasy burger this is it).
-346: club house sandwich
-no 9 omelet (under the 24/7 menu)
-bbq pork with flat rice noodle soup/cha siu hofun (i just order it, i don't know the number)
-161: minced beef fried rice
-220: soy beef rice noodle dry (gan1 cao2 niu2 he2)
uhh that's it off the top of my head. feel free to add more as you try them out or offer semi-constructive criticism to other's choices.

You can also ask them to make your food without MSG. It seems to come out nicer...

Granted, I haven't eaten at #9 in 2 years or more, so I can't be sure if it's still good. I do know that speaking to the owners' son, they have high standards when buying their ducks, and will only buy ones that are within a certain weight. So you won't get the cheap ducks that are nothing but skin and bone. Then again, even the best places are not 100% consistent, so... Good luck! |

195 Curry Beef Brisket on Rice
I order that at almost every chinese place I go to, with the exception of Hon's who make it all watery and soup like. Its better when it has a thicker gravy like curry. The following picture is from Congee Noodle House on Main St, but the curry beef brisket at No 9 looks very similar. I do find that the beef brisket at No 9 isn't as fatty or tender as other places I have been to. |

The last time I went there, my food was spoiled. I ordered the wontons and dumplings in soup, the meat filling in both clearly had an odour and it tasted sour-ish.

I always order BBQ Duck and Cha Siew Hoh fun noodles in soup.
David, the tall night manager, is timeless. I was very frequent there over the years, and he always greeted me and knew what I wanted right away.
I left Vancouver for an entire year, and when I visited Vancouver I went straight there that night with my friends. He saw me, and said (in Cantonese) "Hey! You haven't been here for like 2 or 3 weeks! You want the same thing?"
I didn't have the heart to tell him that 13 months had passed.
