Seems like every time I go to Metrotown, I don't know what to buy. :concentrate:
So what are your favourite restaurants at Metrotown and why?
Any restaurant in particular you guys always go to?

[Kidnapman]

Head bbq chef of that noodle place (which is now the fireplace area in the foodcourt) is the owner of HK BBQ Master.

I would KILL to have legit BBQ in Metro.
The 2 BBQ shops in Crystal mall just don't cut it.

Imagine sneaking in a box of roast pork into the theater.
Screw you popcorn, you're obsolete!!!

[spideyv2]

boss is also cash only...i know it's a chinese restaurant but i was a little surprised to see a cash only restaurant in metro

[donjalapeno]

The Chinese restaurants in crystal mall make me sick...don't know how people eat there.

[snails]

omfg i forgot BOSS existed!! sooo good! and prices are fair considering a single plate will fill 2-3 people for 10-15$

[dinosaur]

UNCLE WILLY'S, BITCHES!!! Grabbing a hold of my white trash roots and buffeting it up with fried chicken!!

jk...ive never been to Uncle Willy's.

I dig that Curry place in the food court. Tasty naan bread and their veg curry is super yum!

[keifun]

I missed the Red Robins there.

Its a condo development now.

[bcrdukes]

Nothing.

Metrotown is the cesspool of the Lower Mainlaind and everything it encompasses.

:troll:

[wingies]

[SoNaRWaVe]

[bcrdukes]

I will pay for your meal if you eat it.

[tmc22]

Got a really bad stomach ache after Uncle Willys a couple years back, not sure if it was me overstuffing myself, or it was bad food...

[-lincolnboi-]

Tried it for the first time on Tues and the fried chicken was not bad :badpokerface:

[Cillu]

The Boss prices are pretty competitive if you guys go for the mini sets on the front page that come with a drink. Works out to be roughly $8 a person before tax and tip.

[godwin]

I was shooting breeze with the staff at HK BBQ Master today (the place under Richmond Superstore).. and I mentioned this.. and they LOL'ed.. saying thanks for letting them know, they didn't know their boss was moonlighting.

However we never know.. the owner of HK BBQ used to work for Hopewell in Coq, back in the 90s when there were a lot of HK stars living in Belcarra. I think he left rather suddenly. If you mentioned his name to the people at the Hopewell that is left (the one on 1st).. you can see the staffs' expression flicker a bit then they say they never heard of him. ;)

[miss_crayon]

What? I know the owner (and his wife and fams) and he used to work there way back in the day; we are talking about the restaurant with the view of the parking lot and the logo was a ship or somthing right? This was in the mid 90s BTW while HK BBq Master opened in the last 7? Years?.. And yes he did work at the Coquitlam resto as well.

I don't know if he left on bad terms or anything (maybe thats why they didnt admit it)at both locations but I can guarantee he was there.

HK BBQ Master, where art thou?

[smarv]

My favourite place at metrotown has to be fortune house restaurant, they have really good dimsum, their located near the Starbucks above the bus loop.

HK BBQ Master drama

[godwin]

As I have said I was just a customer dropping by the place and asking them whether they have a new store at Metrotown. The staff at the BBQ Master are quite insistent that they are the only one and there is no other. Apparently "they are the only store and there is no other" is part of the store sign on the parking lot side.

:facepalm:

What are you talking about?!?! Nowhere did I state he has another restaurant in metrotown. I was simply stating he was the BBQ chef at a restaurant before.

As I clearly stated I was referring to the OLD noodle/seafood resto that use to be where the new food court is (the location of that noodle/seafood resto was located in the fireplace area of the new food court) before the huge renovations in metrotown. The owner of HK BBQ master was only a BBQ chef (AN EMPLOYEE) at that noodle place (in the 90s) then the restaurant closed down for the new food court and he went on to work at other jobs before opening his own store (HK BBQ master) 7-8 years ago. There is only ONE HK BBQ Master, and that's in Richmond in the Superstore complex.

*Maybe he was referring to another noodle place (use to be called Flying Noodles located where the Home Outfitters is now located) but I automatically thought of the noodle/seafood resto as they served bbq meats+noods, bbq meats+rice etc*

[bcrdukes]

lol

[twitchyzero]

When are shops reopening in Station Square? 2015?

[Razor Ramon HG]

All this talk about HK BBQ Master is making me crave some roasted pork, but I'm in Korea. Can't even get dim sum here.. fuck me.

[melloman]

Depends which stores your talking about..

I know Boston Pizza & Red Robins are permanently GONE.

[dlo]

think they are all gone now lol

[Lomac]

My favourite part of Metrotown? The door located beneath the Exit sign.

Haven't been there in at least half a dozen years now but my favourite stores back in the day were Rainforest Cafe, Playdium and that cinnamen bun store by McDonalds (Cinzeo?). Used to hang out at the Red Robins and Boston Pizza all the time late at night when I was still dating my ex out in Burnaby.

Oh, and don't forget that Warhammer store. :lol

I was sad when they got rid of that first level food court in the shitty second half of the mall. Was that the Metropolis section? I liked going there because no one knew about it and there were never any lineups for food.

[skiiipi]

There is a Donair Place around the corner where CIBC is on kingsway (forgot the cross street name)
Really good donairs!
I use to walk there on my break when I worked at metro

Can go to the overpriced shit Chinese restaurant in Myeongdong, across from the Uniqlo. It should be underground and I think there was a TGIF there as well.

They got some dim sum dishes, but again, sucks :lol

All the shops you listed are now gone :alone:
I remembered that I loved the fake crocodile @ rainforest cafe.

[ed99]

If you guys are looking for chicken wings go checkout crystal mall in the food court. I forget the name of the place but they are new and they serve Malaysian food. The wings were really good.

[Groot]

Yeah, I walked by it one night. The name was really whacky and it reminded me of Panda Express in the USA.

I saw the prices and kept walking. :heckno:

There's a wonton noodle place right outside Itaewon Station, but I wouldn't trust it.. :lol

Cinnzeo is still there.
