Dim sum early specials in richmond?
 
I have heard of some places that dim sum is half the price during a certain time. Which places have these specials in richmond?

murd0c 12-26-2009 08:55 PM

most good places the dim sum is cheap already who cares about half price. One of my fav joints would be the golden swan. I havent been there in a couple years tho. I'm white tho so it might not be as good as I think it is (hey its only the truth lol)

White people are pretty damn good at eating Dim Sum now. They know what's good and bad, what's fake and real. I see white people ordering Chicken feet nowadays. Some even order in CHINESE! :eek:

Though it isn't in Richmond, I like to go to Western Lake on Victoria. It is packed though but the prices are good.

Top Gun is pretty expensive, for 2 people it cost me $40ish. I went to Jade the next day, 2 people again and it was only like $25.

soymilk 12-29-2009 11:38 PM

Neptune is solid. Cheap until 11am

skyxx 12-30-2009 01:30 PM

Top Gun is okay. The dim sum is alright for the price, the only good thing about it is that each individual gets it's own tea pot with a decent grade of tea. Plus it doesn't really have any dim sum specials. Sorta off topic here but Fortune House restaurant in Metro has by far the most expensive dimsum out of Metro Vancouver. It's too expensive. Even more than Imperial or Kirin.

I've never heard of half priced dim-sum in Richmond no matter how early. My dad is a "must dim sum at least once a week" kind of guy and we always go to a couple places on Alexandra or the one in Richmond Centre, no idea what the names are. They're all 20-30% off before 11:00am.
