Wah Lun Chinese Restaurant has been one of my go-tos for dim sum for many years. They changed their name to Ryan’s Chinese Restaurant a few years ago, but also still go by Wah Lun as well. Specialty BBQ pork buns: If there’s one thing you must get here, it is their BBQ pork buns! They have the best BBQ pork buns ever. The bun is coated in a sugary egg yolk thing, and is always fresh and fluffy.
The BBQ pork inside is juicy, flavourful and delicious too. They often bring these out fresh and you they smell sooo good.
BBQ PORK BUN! One of the best bbq pork buns that I ever had. Juicy and very delicious. Dim sum is the best option to try many dishes. Very traditional Chineseso do not expect super fancy restaurant. Good food the most important in a restaurant!!!
My uncle lives in the area and had to meet him to help him move some lumber. I ended up in Burnaby much earlier than expected, and decided to grab some lunch.
The decor and ambiance is typical of most Chinese restaurants. They serve dim sum during the day and Cantonese/Hong Kong style dishes in the evening. I was quickly greeted and seated. During lunch, the expectation is you choose from the paper menu. Since it was just myself, I ordered a bowl of congee (rice porridge) and an order of fried chicken knees.
The porridge was mediocre, it's consistency was uneven and likely due to a reheat with water added to it but not given enough time to boil and recombine. The chicken knees however were very well done! The perfect proportion of cartilage and meat. It was coated in a pepper salt batter and fried nice and crispy.
I've been here several times before with my uncle's family. This visit is consistent with previous visits. Reasonably priced with some well made items and some not so well made.
