The Deluxe Chinese Restaurant Richmond | 凯悦酒家

Deluxe Seafood Restaurant is one of the newer Chinese eatery in Richmond. Located at 4260 No 3 Road and Browngate Road (next Aberdeen Mall). It took over the space that once was home to HKYK Seafood Hot Pot Restaurant. Gone are cheap all day dim sum and hot pot. Instead, the space has been completely transformed and renovated into a higher end seafood and dim sum restaurant.

I came here for lunch one day with some colleagues. We enjoyed the comfortable setting, friendly and attentive service and variety of menu items. Dim sum items ranges between $4.80 (s), $5.80 (m), $6.80(l), $7.80 (sp) and $8.80 (sl) each. If you can not read Chinese, do not fret. The menu includes pictures and English translations of each item.

Shrimp Dumpling: There are five regular sized shrimp dumplings. Each with fresh shrimp to give you that sweet decadent bouncy mouthfeel.

Steamed Chicken Feet in Special Sauce: overall good texture and tasty although nothing overwhelmingly impressive.

Chiu Chow Dumplings with prawns, pork, chives and peanuts: Nice filling of ratio of ingredients. The skin is not too thick and have a nice chewy texture.

Bean Curd Wraps with Fresh Prawns in Abalone Sauce

Steamed Beef Rice Rolls with dried vegetables

Deep Fried Dumplings with Shrimp and Minced Pork and Dried Turnip.

Matcha Green Tea Mango Glutinous Pancakes: I would recommend ordering this when it is mango season. Otherwise, this otherwise sweet dessert with be quite tart.

Steamed Traditional Sponge Cake: This is one of my favorite Chinese dessert items during dim sum. This giant sponge cake was not very airy and a little too dense for my liking.

Overall, the execution of their dim sum was above average with good quality ingredients. However, none were overly impressive and makes me longing to return for more.

The Deluxe Chinese Restaurant also offers sushi (sashimi, nigiri and rolls) on their menu during dim sum hours. This is a little odd personally as I would have gone to a Japanese restaurant had I craved Japanese food to begin with.
