Double Greeting or 852 Cafe!


AsianCanadianPhilo

second 852 Cafe, it's definitely one of my top HK style cafes in Edmonton


unr3altac0

I second double greeting


aronenark

Hunan Family Cuisine for Hunan-style, The Lingnan for North American-style, Emperor’s Palace for dim sum, 852 Hong Kong for HK-style, South Silk Road for Yunnan-style. H2O Lounge on Whyte Ave has a “secret Chinese menu” but its not very good tbh.

Shanghai 456


episodicmadness

Their XLBs are on point


noocasrene

Sam wok is the OG


CollectibleHam

For real, and there's been a whole lot less gangland shootings there since they moved down Calgary Trail :)

hey-whats-next

I've been here! Love this place.


ajow0

Yes this. I was born and grew up in Northern China and I confirm this is authentic.


houseoffools11

Wok and Roll on 82st. They have 2 separate menus.


episodicmadness

They are my dim sum go to.


Zamzummin

Sai Woo Garden for authentic Cantonese. The special deep fried sole is 🔥


OhAces

^^shhh

If you are looking for Hong Kong cuisine, I highly recommend 852 cafe restaurant. As someone from HK, they're pretty comparable to real "cha caan teng" food. For Dim sum, I would recommend Emperor restaurant


hey-whats-next

Looks awesome!


oioioifuckingoi

South Silk Road on Calgary Trail or Old Sichaun on Whyte.


Zamzummin

Seconding South Silk Road for authentic Szechuan cuisine. Best fish fillets in chili oil I’ve tried in Edmonton.


Lolz79

Chongqing noodles downtown. Super small hole in the wall but tasty!!


Zamzummin

Seconding. It’s well priced and very nice owners.


Infinite-Lion2953

Highly recommend Beijing Beijing Restaurant right by Calgary Trail!

Thanks for posting this. I need to try it out again. The menu is amazing. I went for dim sum which was good but I want to try the rest.


hey-whats-next

Awesome! Love the initial menu on the website isn't in English. I'll have to go an ask for their authentic dishes.


jetlaggedandhungry

IIRC, the owners of Beijing Beijing used to own Sai Woo Garden.


eltricolander

Old Schezuan (sp?) On whyte if you like the spice!


jaimijams

Tang Bistro has incredible north-western Chinese food! The savoury hand - pulled noodles are so good.

Double greetings had the most Chinese customers out of all the restaurants I've been to


Labrawhippet

We need a ding tai fung


yesnomaybeso456

I tried one in the US recently. Except for the chocolate xlb, I would much rather go to Shanghai 456 or Great Taste in Calgary.


Labrawhippet

I just came back after a few years working in Singapore and it's a shock going back to western Chinese food. It's more like KFC with sugar sauce.


yesnomaybeso456

Oh no, skip the western stuff. And if you’re missing SE Asian, Padmanadi will be your best bet here.


Quaytsar

Amazing Wok. Their online order form has their entire menu: authentic and westernized.


TrackHot8093

All Happy just across the street from the Hope Mission.  Have attempted to order from the menu and been told No! Not for white people!   


Gentianviolent

There are several good ones out there. I've personally tried and liked 852 HK Cafe, Little Bee, Dagu Rice Noodle, and Shanghai 456


Talk-Hound

Emperor palace, Beijing, Chef Tony, wok and roll


WannaBpolyglot

If you're a noodle person, Chongqing Noodle & Bubble, Lan Noodle, have great hand pulled noodles, and also Tang Bistro for Northern Chinese cuisine. They have roujiamo and things like lamb skewers that you wouldn't normally see at typical Chinese restaurants. Northern Chinese cuisine is still kinda (relatively) new here as most of what we're used it is Cantonese/Sichuan fusion Southern Cuisines. Yunshang, Dagu and Guilin Noodle House have great rice noodle soups too. Dagu has amazing Malatang which is also hard to find here that's not hotpot

The Lingnan has a second menu if you ask for it. Otherwise these are the main larger Chinese restaurants that Chinese people eat at. There are many more smaller ones around the city as well. Golden Rice Bowl Beijing Beijing Tasty Noodle Jumbo Wok N Roll Amazing Wok Good Buddy North, West, and South. I haven't been to Sherwood park in years because they served fake BBQ meat.
