Richmond is home to many Hong Kong style cafes such as Kingspark. They are known for good cheap eats under $10. I frequent Kingspark since the menu selection, quality and value are excellent. Most menu items include a hot/cold drink as well at no extra charge! Most Hong Kong style cafes charge $1 extra for cold drinks. The parking may be a problem on the weekends but once you go in, it’s all good from there on. Most of the time you are seated and given hot tea right away. You will need a general idea of what you’d want to eat so that you can look for those options on the menu. Servers will then check back quickly to take your order so you can get your food quickly. Service can be prompt but also can be a little slow at times. I ordered preserved salted fish fried rice, my mom ordered thai style fried rice which is my top pick to share with my grandma, and my brother ordered a taiwanese style beef noodle. If you order baked stuff, be prepared to wait a little longer.
The fried rice is excellent value. It is enough to feed 2 people and it’s only $6.45! Don’t forget, that price includes a drink too! The fried rice was tasty and not greasy at all. My brother’s beef was tender and had good flavour. I would give this restaurant 8/10 stars. Quality and value is definitely there. As for service, like all HK style cafes, you’d have to demand it sometimes.
