Richmond's Delicious Food Scene
Try out the Asian food here in RIchmond. It's authentic and probably the best in North America!
Best BBQ duck (sold out early, need to pre-order)
This is also my personal favorite place for BBQ pork. Ask for half fat, half lean. That's the best ratio. Cash only.

Hidden away near industrial buildings, this craft brewery provides a quiet, cozy atmosphere that you cannot find anywhere else in Vancouver. I usually get the dark beer here but they have good variety.
