Wing Kee Chinese Restaurant

Wing Kee Seafood Restaurant (web site, 120-8260 Granville Avenue, Richmond, BC, Canada, phone 604-270-1825) specializes in Hong Kong Style Fried Crab (pictured below) as well as other seafood, barbecue pork, and wonton soup. They offer Chinese food delivery to the Richmond area until 3am. We had a large group and we ordered one dish each plus three crabs, and the price came out to approximately $25 per person including tax and tip. There are many Chinese restaurants in the Richmond area, but Wing Kee is where my family usually ends up going. We agreed after our latest meal that everything on the table was delicious!!

Stepho’s Greek Restaurant

Stephos Greek Restaurant (visitor reviews, 1124 Davie Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, 604-683-2555) is so popular that most nights of the week you’ll find people lining up outside the door, waiting to get in. And the wait is worth it, for the portions are huge, prices reasonable, service attentive, and food really tasty. Christine G. Louie writes:

“The kalamari entree was even more enormous than the other dishes and so large that whenever one of us forked a morsel, five or six little kalamari pieces fell to the table ($9.99).”

Pictured below is the roast lamb, which is a steal at $8.99 and is served with rice, potatoes, Greek salad, and a very tasty tomato ratatouille (something that you don’t usually find at Greek restaurants). Everything on the menu is under $10, and the wine is also reasonably priced.
