    Strawberry french toast and milk tea
    Fonda C.

    Great french toast. They have season flavours that they add syrup and toppings. Its in a food court with many other popular restaurants so sometimes getting a seat is a little difficult. They give a pager to notify you when your food is ready because everything is made fresh to order

    Deep Fried Drumstick with Pasta! Hands down the BEST meal I had in Vancouver! The drumstick was extra crispy, juicy and meaty! Not only was it DELICIOUS, it was cheap. I'm drooling as I'm typing this. I'm about to book a plane ticket so I can go back to eat it again.

    We came on a weekday for a quick lunch. Got the macaroni satay beef to compare with the one from cha kee. I prefer the cha kee satay noodles compared to this one. This one didn't have the fragrant peanut flavour the other one did. I also prefer the egg sandwich from cha kee more as the eggs were more fluffy and better cooked. The milk tea was not bad Overall I prefer cha kee more than this one for the eggs and the satay beef

    One Cafe in Empire Centre is serves HK Style dishes. Had to go to pineapple bun (bo luo bao) with scrabble eggs and satay beef. Seating was busy and had to go outside to the benches. Very good signed bun. The topping held together well and didn't break up when you breathed on it. Very sloppy to hold with the scrambled eggs and satay sauce. Take lots of napkins or bring wipes. Very affordable prices and satisfies your HK cravings.

    Another HK style renowned street food eatery opened in the Empire Centre, neighboring to the main shop night in the Parker Place. This one week old food stall provides more choices to the contemporary HK style food. So far the food is delicious, portion size could see improvement and the prices are pretty standard. I do like the hot drink are in 16 oz. cups, way better than the other competitors just use small (8oz) cups. I also like there are ample free parkings available to customers... Pretty sure I would return again and try their other items:)

    This place takes me back to HK, food is tasty, service is fast. Their tea is full of caffeine so gotta be careful how much you drink.

    Cha Don is a Hong Kong-style café concept that nails the casual cha chaan teng experience with…read morelegit flavour and sharp value, especially for a food court operation. Long lines at both the Yaohan and Henderson Mall locations speak to how popular it is, and the pricing sits in the affordable range for generous, full-meal plates rather than snack-sized portions. The overall value proposition is strong: you get real-deal HK café flavours without feeling like corners were cut. Dishes come out fast and hot, and the kitchen does not skimp on proteins--whether it's pork chops, chicken, or beef, plates feel properly loaded rather than padded with carbs. Despite the crowds, service is efficient and geared toward turnover, which suits the food court setting and keeps waits manageable once you've actually ordered. It's the kind of place where you grab your tray, sit, and eat rather than linger, but it delivers exactly what you come for. Given the combination of flavour, portion size, and price, Cha Don is an easy recommend for Hong Kong café fans looking for a quick, satisfying meal. The only real downside is the lineup; at peak times the queue can be enough to make you think twice. Still, if the line isn't too long, it's absolutely worth returning for another round.

    Who knew Hong Kong cafe food in a food court would be so popular? Does this beat driving to…read moreRichmond? Heck ya! Parking is easily available but there is a 4 hour limit. Cha Don has only been opened in Henderson Mall for 2 weeks and the line is insane. (Even went back a month later and it's still ridiculous.) Most of the dishes are under $16 but some of the items are not available till after 11:30. That's includes the baked rice dish and spaghetti and the minced pork patty rice series. This will quicken up the long time for those breakfast goers but sucks if you're craving either of those. So the first time I had gone, there were lots of mistakes in orders and the long lines. There was also a sign in front of the cashier stating that they will only take CASH or E-TRANSFER...So be prepared! By the look at more recent reviews, it seems like they're still working out the kinks and the line is still 30-45 minutes. Maybe by this spring they'll figure it out? Just know there are lots of good options if you're not willing to wait.

    Further to my lunch experience a couple of months ago which wasn't too good, i decided to give…read moretheir breakfast another chance. I used to come here often with friends and families for breakfast and wanted to see whether it still tasted just as good. We each got two items from the breakfast combo, A through D. A to Cs are our usual options and upgrade to French toast. The eggs were somewhat on the drier side and i personally prefer fluffy ones. The beef noodles and the congee continue to be my favorites. The beef noodle broth is flavorful and the congee definitely comforted my soul. The items listed in D are always a miss. We have tried all items and none of them was delicious. For example, the steamed rice rolls were very doughy. Other times, they were very dry. The items in D sometimes felt like they're frozen dim sum items sold at grocery stores. Service is a hit or miss depending on which server you get. Sometimes you get servers who come and refill tea and provides actual service. Other times, no one comes by at all even when there is no tea in cups, etc.

The dessert at the end was a surprise. Expecting red bean soup but got a Chinese jello instead. Prawns were amazing too. Salted egg flavour and sweet and sour pork had wok hei! Service could be a bit slower but it's a Chinese restaurant. So i get it. Everything was gooood! Portions were generous and the taste on point. The washrooms could use a bit of cleaning as well as the flooring...so had to take away a star. Would go back for sure! Overall tho, good comfort Chinese food at reasonable prices. Cheers! Happy eating!

In my recent visit I ordered my go to dish Wok Fried Spicy Salted Pork Chop with Fried Rice. There is so much wok hay in the fried rice and the pork chop is flavourful with bits of fried garlic, chilli, green onion and cilantro on top! There is always a line up but they work super fast and they hand you a buzzer so that you can go look for a table in the food court and be alerted by the buzzer when your order is ready.

We only had our credit cards and I asked the person at the cash register if they take credit card, she said nope but there is an ATM upstairs at the Superstore. We went upstairs to grab some cash from the ATM out front. When we got back downstairs, the lady in charge already had reserved a table for us and immediately explained to us what is served during the breakfast hours. She gave us a few recommendations and we went with the wonton with brisket as they ran out of fish balls and the HK Style Grilled Beef with Black Peppercorn Sauce. Both items were marvelously well made, the peppercorn sauce is EXACTLY how its done in HK and all major cities with a huge HK population. But the winner is the wonton. By golly, I have had hundreds of bowls of wonton, I have made hundreds of wonton dumplings for my family's business but this one really stands out amongst all of them. The service is efficient and very friendly and they greeted so many regular customers with kind words asking about their work and family. I felt like I was entering into a HK neighborhood corner cafe.
