Golden Paramount

Came here for dim sum and ordered a variety of dumplings, pan fried turnip cakes, this century egg pastry dish, shrimp/beef rice rolls, pan fried noodles, pea tips, tripe, and sticky rice. Loved how each dish came out hot, and I thought most of the dishes were solid. The wrapping for the steamed shrimp dumpling were falling apart, but they were still tasty. The turnip cake was cut into small cubes, which was different than what in used to, but it was crispy and surprisingly tasty. The pan fried noodles were not the best I’ve ever had. It was missing some flavor, and the pepper was too overpowering. The century egg pastry was probs my least favorite. Notes: They accept credit card here. They also have a free parking garage, but spots are tight

Golden Paramount is a restaurant that I learned about from when then Eater critic at large Bill Addison wrote a writeup of assorted Chinese restaurants in Vancouver and Richmond. While many of the restaurants in that article have since closed, Golden Paramount has stood the test of time. It is my personal choice for a Cantonese restaurant in the Richmond area if you're looking for the nicer banquet experience. I went with my girlfriend and three other friends the last time we were up in Vancouver - my girlfriend grew up in Victoria and went to school in the Vancouver area because she went to school at University of British Columbia, so we go up to visit friends often, and we wanted Cantonese food. We ordered the beef chow fun, the dry fried string beans with pork, the prawns with scallion sauce, and the sweet and sour pork (with a side of steamed rice, of course). Beef chow fun is always a highlight at Cantonese restaurants and it's executed especially well at Golden Paramount. The noodles have an exceptional amount of smoky wok hei, and the dish carries a lovely richness without being greasy. The dry fried string beans are a dish that can be disappointing when executed poorly, but they were executed excellently here. The dish was seasoned wonderfully and the small morsels of pork were a delicious treat in between the green beans. The prawns with scallion sauce were a new dish for me at this restaurant, but I was very glad we ordered them. The prawns were delightfully meaty and the accompanying sauce was very well balanced and savory. There was some crisp to the prawns as well, making the shells perfectly edible. Lastly while I know that purists may hesitate to order sweet and sour pork, I would highly recommend trying it at Golden Paramount. The sauce is sweet without being closing, balanced with nice acidity, and the pork is fried in a way that can only be described as delicate. A must order. You won't go wrong with most of the well known Cantonese banquet spots in Richmond, but Golden Paramount would be a great choice if you're ever unsure what to go with

Après avoir été â ma banque, j'ai décidé sur le moment, d'arreter dans un des centaines de restaurants pour le lunch â deux pas de là. Première surprise, on y sert un DimSum, un d e mes repas favorits en gang. Seul, je me laisse tenter et je commande cinq plats...super. Les Hagoys (beignets à ' â vapeur) étaient succulents. Le riz collant dans une feuille de lotus était excellent. Je me suis empresse d'y verser le côtés levées si étaient nombreuses, bien apprêtées et parmi les meilleures que j'ai mangées en quarante ans de présence sur la scène chinoise. Les dumpings poêlés au porc étaient un peu froid (ma faute) mais très délicieux.Quant aux dg grooms, croustillants mais servis avec une sauce quelconque. Le service pour u restaurant chinois..était impeccable.je vais y revenir.
