"Well-executed Hong Kong cafe staples await at Venus Cafe, a Richmond spot with a menu longer than most car owners’ manuals. The spacious dining room is plastered with handwritten specials, like a shatteringly crisp fried flounder. Or you can stick with old reliables like the pork chop with Portuguese sauce or a bowl of thick congee. It’s a great option when you need a place with plenty of options and enough space to fit your entire extended family with about zero notice." - patrick wong, julia chen 1
