Southern China (Cantonese) Comforting bites featuring translucent dumplings such as sui gow and wontons, alongside signature specialties and curated drinks. Northwestern China (Silk Road / Halal flavours) Bold, aromatic flavours with cumin-spiced and lamb-based dumplings or hand-made breads, inspired by regions like Ningxia and Xinjiang. Along the way, gain insight into the cultural context behind each dish and Richmond’s evolution into a world-class dining destination.
