    Chinese Pork Burger (肉夾饃)
    Karl G.

    Richmond Public Market was the first Chinese food court we checked out, and Xi'an Cuisine immediately caught our eye for its authentic Xi'an-style eats. Having had solid Xi'an food in both New York and Seattle, I was excited to try some in Canada! There's a convenient parking garage attached to the building, and while there's plenty of seating inside, it definitely gets busy on weekends. - Chinese Pumpkin Cake (南瓜餅) -- my first time trying nanguabing! Crispy, breaded pumpkin exterior with a soft, gooey red bean filling -- sweet, warm, and comforting. - Chinese Pork Burger (肉夾饃) -- tender, stewed pork stuffed in a crisp, light bun; flavorful and perfectly juicy. Service was quick -- the nanguabing came straight from the heat case, and the roujiamo was freshly made within minutes. Ambience was lively and bustling, typical for a Saturday at Richmond Public Market. Would definitely come back to try their hand-pulled noodles next time!

    Beef tendon on rice
    Daniel P.

    The beef tendon in rice was absolutely delicious. The tendon was beautifully seasoned and immaculately soft. And the amount of food you get for $13 is insane. I am glad we only got one order and shared, because I wouldn't have been able to finish it on my own. The dish came with bok choy, a fried egg, and rice along with the beef and the tendon. You can't miss this dish!!

    Only tried the beef noodle soup.. broth had great flavor but was quite salty and thick.. the hand pulled noodles were nice and bouncy.. tendon was gorgeously soft and melt in ur mouth.. the salt level turned me off trying it again in the future tho

    Cold noodles and green onion pancake
    Yvonne Y.

    Hubby got the cold noodles and a quarter of the green onion pancake while I was ordering at Hei Hei. I think I would enjoy this much more if I don't order a full meal from Hei Hei. Cold noodles - 4/5. I enjoy the crunchy cucumber and the smooth cold noodles texture with the spicy sauce. Green onions pancake - very fluffy. Wish it is salted a bit more. All in all, it's a solid cheap eat.

    Pretty decent Xian style (surprise, surprise) food stall in Richmond Public Market. Parking is available in the lot attached to the building. Looks like a mom (and pop?) shop. In fact, the owner's kids behind the counter seemed bored out of their skulls. Haha. This place has mostly noodle soup, but also other goodies such as lamb skewers, and deep fried buns. They have several noodle types, but my go to is always their thick noodles. The wide flat ones, not the udon ones. The food is basically home cooking. The lamb soup noodle hit the spot. Decent chunks of meat, and plenty of noodles as opposed to just soup. I actually left satisfied. Special mention. I also tried their skewers, which were a bit pricey ($10 for 3 as of the time of writing). Decent spices, but a bit on the salty side, which is a shame, because otherwise I could recommend them. Overall I'd stick to the noodle soup. Wouldn't mind coming back at some point.

    Curry brisket rice
    Eric C.

    I got off work late and wanted a quick meal before heading home so thought I'd stop by the Richmond Public Market. I got here close to 7 pm on a weekday and most to the food stalls were already closed. Luckily Xi'an Cuisine was open and I go their curry brisket rice. I was pleasantly surprised that it came with side dishes and really rounded out this meal. The brisket was flavourful, I liked the vegetables. There was some marinated pork like Taiwanese lu rou and a fried egg. I was very full and couldn't finish all the food. Would love to try their other dishes next time.

    As fans of the Xi'an noodles in New York (and in general), we knew we had to try out this Xi'an Cuisine in the Richmond Public Market for comparison! - PARKING - There's a parking lot that connects to the Richmond Public Market and is an easy walk over for convenience! Be careful of crazy/fast drivers that speed around the corners! We witnessed at least 3 cars going way too dangerously fast! - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - They don't have a buzzing/electronic system that lets you know when your order is done, so standby near the stall and the staff will call out your order items as they're ready. There's several tables within the Market so seating shouldn't be a problem. - FOOD - Fried Noodle w/ Lamb and Vegetables ($16.00): What I believe is their version of the Spicy Dry Cumin Lamb Noodles. LOVED the texture and chew of the hand pulled/knife cut noodles - probably the best part! There was a decent amount of lamb chunks, and a good variety of vegetables. I do think it could have been more flavorful, but add some of their chili oil before you leave the pick-up counter and it helps a bit! Special Cold Noodle ($11.00): What I believe is their version of Liang Pi. Compared to the noodles from the Lamb dish, these noodles were a bit of a let down. They're just thick ho fun noodles that you would get in packages from the market. I also thought the flavoring was blander than the Lamb dish, which was disappointing. I would stick to the Lamb Noodles! Pan-Fried Pork Buns (3pc): Really nice fluffy bun and a super crisp bottom. Good ratio of filling to bun. I liked this, but didn't love it. Definitely had more flavorful fillings before, but I appreciated how fluffy the bun was. - OVERALL - Decent pick in the Market, would recommend the Lamb Noodles and the Pan-Fried Buns.

    Was craving noodles and stopped here to get an order of dan dan noodles. The portions were massive and a decent price for a market. The sauce on the noodles was really rich and loved all the veggies incorporated. Service was fairly fast. I wish I tried the hand pulled noodle soup since it looked tasty! I'd come back here if I was in the area.

    Average food court taste. No service because it's in the food court. What do you expect the ambiance of a food court market? Not much, not only the Richmond public market are not doing well, don't know what to expect to come in the future.

    Pan fried pork dumplings
    Huong L.

    I came here before a few years ago doing a dumpling trail and got the spicy wonton. Although it was ok, I wanted to come back to try their pan fried dumplings as it looks good. Now I'm back and I'm so glad I did. We came when they just open so I had to wait for about 20 minutes for them to finish cooking. First impression, these things were huge!!!!!! For $8, I thought I was going to get some small size dumplings but instead, I got 3 plump size (fist size) baos! The bottom was perfectly crispy and although it was freaking hot inside, it was soooo flavorful and juicy. I left in a rush but man, I wanted chili oil. If I had chili oil, this would have been a 5 star. I'm so glad I came back to try the dumplings, now I have to back to try their noodles :)

    Craving noodles after shopping in 0 degree weather at the Richmond outlets! We wanted Taiwanese style beef noodles but couldn't find something that appealed to us so we decided to go to the Richmond market with a bunch of food stalls. There were so many to choose from, but Xi'an cuisine stood out because of their hand-pulled noodles! For under $10 I got the noodles with chilli and vegetables. I couldn't even finish it! The noodles were nice and chewy, super fresh, and had a vinegary taste to it. Kind of wish I got the bowl with pork, but it was still very good. Their chilli wontons were also very taste with the homemade wrap

    Must come here on your visit to Richmond! Xi'an food is awesome. A unique mix of Muslim and Chinese. This place is close to what I ate there, and Xi'an food is pretty hard to find in North America. This place is located on the upper floor of the Richmond Public market (see other review) What to order - liang pi #15. Unique dish with handmade noodles, bean sprout, cucumber, spicy sauce and these weird spongy things. Some people think its tofu but I'm told this is gluten that's strained and cooked from the noodles. So far this is really the only thing I come here for. Have tried a few other dishes. The Chinese pork burger (Pom woa) is ok and really juicy/heavy. The lamb soup with shredded pancake is unique with decent flavor. Skewers weren't bad and a nice way to add meat to your liang pi tho night market is better My only bias is that they weren't as good as what I got in Xi'an. Yeah maybe unfair comparison but oh well Things I would like to try: 8 - noodles w fried pork and chili 9 - fried noodle w lamb and vege

    Beef noodle soup
    Micah K.

    This is one of the restaurants located In the Richmond public market. There are many options to choose from in this food court but this place is a must try! I got the beef noodle soup with knife cut noodles which was delicious . My favorite part of this meal was the texture of the noodle. They had it cooked to perfection with more of an Al dente texture. The wait was pretty long but it was worth it in the end. Give them a try if you're in the area and are craving hand pulled noodle!

    They really don't make em like this in the States…read more Absolutely delicious burgers here! My favorite thing to get is the spicy Tex Supreme chicken sandwich. It comes out piping hot, with fresh lettuce and tomato. The chicken is crunchy and has a very spicy kick! Which is my favorite part. It's juicy and seasoned to perfection. I also love getting the chicken here. I love the seasoning for the chicken and the crispiness of the skin. The chicken meat itself is super juicy and always delicious! Service through the drive thru is always quick and efficient with a smile. A must eat every time I come to Vancouver.

    === 1. VERDICT/VALUE In the battle of fried chicken in…read moreRichmond, Church's pulls its weight, powered by good chicken and 24/7 access to such - watch your waistline! :) === 2. FOOD In exploring the fried chicken scene in Richmond: - Popeyes has a light coating of batter, is relatively light on pepper/spice, and has marinated meat where you can taste the saline/salt. - Church's is like that of Popeyes - lighter batter, lighter on spice, but the meat itself is less marinated that what Popeyes offers. Good choice for me when Popeyes isn't readily available! It's also $0.25 cheaper per piece than that of the nearby LA Chicken. - LA would be like a mix between Popeyes and KFC - it has more pepper/spices than Popeyes with thicker batter, but smaller thighs and drumsticks. - KFC would be best for those who like a fuller set of pepper/spices, thick batter, and usually flavorful meat. === 3. SERVICE There is the handy 24/7 drive-thru service. I went inside to get a better feel for the service and it was good and fast for takeout. === 4. ENVIRONMENT This location used to be a Dairy Queen at one point and in many ways, it still is stuck as such from the late 90's or early 2000's. There is a fair amount of seating for groups of all sizes; wheelchairs and baby strollers will have no trouble fitting in except for perhaps getting to the lower seating areas. The location is optimized for drive-thru service, so parking is in the shopping lot complex across the laneway / drive-thru lane.

    I finally get to visit Costco & Costco food court. During my 2019 visit, I made a special request…read moreto my family to add Costco to the itinerary but no luck. After seeing an Instagram post the night before , I saw one for Costco food hack , hehe. Good thing now I know just what to order ! We made a quick stop just to grab food for the road, they were super busy on a Sunday! Took awhile to get my order, but understandable . Must Order at the self check out and pretty easy to navigate There's Montreal smoked meat sandwich ( crazy me-never cross my mind to order this) chicken tenders, fries, & of course the poutine which I am curious to try for very first time. During this visit I just found out you can get a Kirkland water when you get the hot dog combo instead of pop. I ordered & did the hack, chicken tenders with fries, side gravy for only .30, side cheese curd $2.99 for nice size package , hot dog combo. Total = 13.84, lower in USD. So cheap! This hack gets you the chicken tenders, hehe. I wanted to try the caramel sundae , but too early in day for desserts but I think that's available in the states . The verdict: I tried first without the gravy & cheese curd, then added them. Either way I enjoyed my very first poutine. I really like the fries & tenders, so good for the price! I got cheese out, since that was too much cheese curd for us. All in all, great first time enjoying poutine & on our road trip back . Love it. I Can't wait to be back & now I can create my own poutine back home when I'm thinking of Canada , hehe. **We were just here exactly one week ago today, such great memories! Happy Sunday!
