Chinese Wedding Reception at Sea Harbour Seafood Restaurant in Richmond
Wedding season is around the corner when its hot and sunny in Metro Vancouver. I’m guessing most couples or parents have done their research and homework on wedding receptions by now. I will be reviewing a wedding reception at Sea Harbour Seafood Restaurant.
Sea Harbour Restaurant is considered one of the superior Chinese restaurants in Metro Vancouver. Sun Sui Wah, Kirin, and Shang Garden will be grouped in the same class as Sea Harbour. Sea Harbour is a popular chain from mainland China. Don’t be misled by the exterior facade. The interior decor is grand.
The minimum charge to book the whole restaurant is $11000. Sea Harbour can accommodate eighteen tables roughly one hundred and eighty people. Eighteen tables is the optimal. That will leave enough walking path between all the tables. Sea Harbour is perfect size for a smaller intimate wedding reception.
Review: The Boss Bakery and Restaurant in Vancouver
Good old Vancouver Chinatown. Chinatown has been on the decline for years but the City of Vancouver has been reviving and restoring through the Chinatown Revitalization Program. Chinatown is nested in the Strathcona area and right next to downtown. You can really see a big change with all the downtown condos and GM place built right next to Chinatown. One will notice newer condo buildings along Union, Georgia and Pender in Chinatown. There are historical buildings restored along Pender. Chinatown is more vibrant with a balance of the old and new. Also, I notice more local ethnic groups are shopping in Chinatown and even Bean Around The World Coffees has opened on the corner of Gore and Union. Chinatown still has the freshest and cheapest produce, meats, and Asian products in Metro Vancouver.
The Boss is a Chinese bakery in the front and restaurant in the back of the store. All the baked goods are baked on the second floor. They have a small elevator transferring the down. They have a big selection of pastries that are quite delicious.
Review: Roasted Pig from Kam Wah Meat in Vancouver
A roasted pig is generally for special occasions. The wedding engagement was the special occasion on this day. Roasted pig is made by roasting the entire pig with seasoning in a charcoal furnace at high temperature. Roasted pigs have crisp skin and juicy and tender meat. This roasted pig is from Kam Wah Meat in Vancouver Chinatown. The quality of roast pig are comparable from the meat stores in Vancouver Chinatown. We particular choose Kam Wah because we are a repeat customer, good quality, they gave us a special price and we didn’t have to put a deposit for the red tray. The red tray is a red wooden serving tray. The roasted pig was 27 lbs and cost $150.
