I ate at this place, some Vancourities claim that it has the best beef balls, I was very satisfied.
I wish someone told me that before I went to HK. I went to quite a few places where I was disappointed.
HK BBQ Master at No.3 Superstore does a fantastic job at both BBQ Pork and Siu Yok - I couldn't find a better place in HK.
We probably could've met up if we planned it earlier. Maybe there's a next time given how much you liked your HK experience.
There's a lot of good food in Hong Kong, and the types of food I generally find better in Hong Kong over Vancouver are dishes that require manual effort to make and require fresh ingredients. Think places that serve handmade beef balls / fish balls, noodles, live seafood (the variety!), and restaurants inside wet markets and 'mushroom kiosks'. Lucas Sin from Bon Appetit sometimes shares the behind-the-scenes videos of how some of these dishes are made:
I hope you get to experience more in a future visit. I typically tell people that Vancouver on average has better restaurants for casual dining, but Hong Kong has excellent high-end restaurants on the upper end, and cheap eats on the lower end.

Zapoteca has a location in White Rock as well. Very good eats.
I had a great lunch at Nightingale the other day. Both the food and service were on point.
Funny you mentioned Zapoteca, it's been on our list, we're actually going to the Kits location next week with another couple.
