I found this is the best Chinese restaurant in Vancouver 👍👍👍
Very authentic Shanghai style restaurant; designated parking.
Authentic Shanghai cuisine and friendly service. I love the Xiaoloong Pao, Steamed rice mixed with vegetables (菜飯）, drunken chicken, sweet sour ribs, and shredded eels (鱔絲）. The price is reasonable for greater Vancouver area and parking can be near restaurant of opposite road in Richmond Centre Mall parking lot. Booking ahead is perhaps a smart move as the joint tend to get busy dinner time.
