Xiao long bao in Richmond
 

Looking for a place to eat Xiao Long bao in Richmond. Other than Dinesty and fancy places.

Also looking for more HK style cafes with mini set menus in Richmond (Pearl Castle, Copa Cafe, anything else?)

Prefer if 5-10 min from Aberdeen/Richmond center area.

Xiao Long bao - Su Hang Restaurant in Richmond (opposite of Price Smart on No.3)

there's a place in president plaza food fair hand makes them juicy buns

across from chef tony inside the plaza there's another joint that makes them also a food fair its the place that when you're walking in its facing the door you came through on the right.

Shanghai Wonderful across from Costco is my go to place when having family visit.
Or SHanghai Modern on 41st and West boulevard (yea i know not exactly close but you definitely need to try when you're in the area)

Second Floor on Garden city above HK Hot Pot is another good one, though i forgot the name

HK style cafes we've been hitting up:

Peaches (on alexandra across the pho place &wedding shop)
Amigo (beside Zodiac)
Kingspark

Memory Corner on Park I find is better for food than Pearl Castle

XLB places:
R&H Chinese Food - Lansdowne Centre
Baiyulan Shanghainese Restaurant - across from Lansdowne Centre on Alderbridge (this is the reincarnation of Chen's!!)
Suhang Restaurant, as someone mentioned earlier
Top Shanghai - in the same complex as Pricesmart
Shanghai River - on Westminster Hwy

A bit farther than 10 minutes, but Mama's Dumplings in Ironwood is pretty legit for a small family run place.

There any good places for them in east van? Been wanting a while but don’t want to drive to dinesty

There is a Burnaby Dinesty location, just at Willingdon & Kingsway. Close enough to East Van?

anyone try that shanghai place on kingsway beside the london drugs near joyce same plaza as honolulu

That's Wang's Shanghai Cuisine. My go-to for xlb. Their prices are amazing and the dumplings are phenomenal. I would say they are on par with the legendary Crystal Mall food court place but cheaper.
My overall rankings..
Wang's
Crystal Mall
Lansdowne R+H

n Richmond behind ironwood abit out of the way
