Fisherman's Terrace Seafood Restaurant (Richmond, Canada)

So after the successful and tasty meal recommended by our concierge we decided to eat at the Fisherman's Terrace in the Parker Mall.  The decor is very nice which reminded me of the places we ate at in Hong Kong.   Most dim sum places have large spaces and they are usually loud.  Luckily we came here on a weekday to avoid the crowds and noise.  This place doesn't push carts, instead you order off the menu and they bring it out to you.  So everything is cooked to order making it fresh and hot when you eat the dishes.  We ordered:


Sticky Rice with dried scallops - This was one of my top dishes here.  The rice was cooked perfect and the flavors from the scallops was in every bite.  


Pork Dumpling (shu mai) - These were really good.  As you bite into the pork, it's not hard but very tender and the flavors were great.


Chicken Feet -  The dish was good but I've had better elsewhere.


Pan Fried Fish Paste - I thought this dish was a bit bland and oily.  


Green Onion and Dried Scallop Crepes -  I like this dish a lot.  Most places don't evenly distribute the meat and veggies on the crepes evenly but they did a good job here.  I liked how the crepe itself was not too thick.


Spareribs infused with Pumpkin Flavor with black beans - This was my other top dish.  The ribs was so tender and full of flavor.  At first I thought the pumpkin flavor wasn't going to be tasted but they were in each spareribs I ate.  We ate everything and the sauce also.


Steam Duck Tongue with Taro - Okay so I've never tried this before but I wanted to try something I've never seen before at least in the Dim Sum in the States so we ordered it.  The tongue was very gamy and there is a small piece of cartilidge in each tongue sort of like Chicken Feet.  I think if it was flavored more maybe I would have like it more but at least I can say I've tried Duck Tongue.


Chilled Mango Puree with Tapioca - I loved this dessert!  You can taste the fresh mango and it was a nice dessert to finish off after all that dim sum we chowed down.


I thought the food was really good.  There was 1-2 dishes that was a miss.  The service was good and maybe it was because we came here during the weekday.  I can't imagine what it would be like on a Saturday or Sunday.  I would definitely recommend this place to others.
