KIRIN

my mama and i had lunch at the kirin restaurant downtown.

this spacious restaurant was packed on a weekday afternoon.

this doesn't surprise me since the food is delicious and reasonably priced.

this restaurant serves traditional chinese food,

so be prepared to try new food!

together, my mama and i shared:

 -pumpkin and shrimp dumplings (picture 2)

-vegetarian dumplings with shiitake mushrooms (picture 2)

-chinese broccoli with oyster sauce (picture 3)

-bean curd with shimeji mushroom (picture 4)

-mango jelly wrapped in green tea mochi + coconut (picture 5)

both my mum and i found all the dishes to be 

fresh and well prepared.

none of the dishes we tried were oily,

and it left us with the good kinda full feeling.

i personally was a big fan of the pumpkin + shrimp dumpling, and the mango jelly + green tea mochi.

if you are in vancouver and feeling like some good chinese food, the kirin restaurant is a great place to go check out.
