What it's like eating Dim Sum out on the Patio/Parking Lot during covid @ Neptune Seafood Restaurant

This is a fantastic day to be outside. Vancouver is getting back to normal and I get to dine out with two good friends, Chefs Neal and Grace from Two Chefs One Knife.
While our restaurants are still not allowed to serve dine-in meals, many places have been creatively using their patios and even their parking lots to offer an out door dining experience. Today, I get a chance to try dim sum outside at Neptune Seafood Restaurant in Richmond BC Canada where we'll have lots of dim sum dishes, seafood, and an incredible Lobster fried noodles.
Thank you all so much for joining and hope you get a chance to explore the restaurants in your area!

Omg we had so much fun doing this with you! Fantastic dim sum and dining experience! You rock Tim!

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thank you so much for an amazing afternoon out! Very grateful that Grace was able to capture the exploding custard incident and hoping Neal's shirt washes out the egg yolk custard. :-) Thank you both so much!!!

[@helenshack2838]

Hate to be a negative critic. But where is this Neil a chef at ? Harvey’s ? Subway? How can a “chef “ never have tried dim sum and how can a chef nor be able to identify flavours of food like “ chicken .”? Plus he was hesitant to try anything (unless he had food allergies). I think he must be a chef trainee.

[@miadobby4029]

What kind of chef if he is that is,he was extremely negative about most things he ate,as if only what he cooked was good enough for him,what's the point in trying anything if he isn't open minded and leave his ego back at his restaurant if he owns any.

[@chaisepomme4070]

Really? A chef in Vancouver who's never had dim sum? He should get out more...

Chef Neal is based out of whistler and isn’t from Vancouver originally. Also, you’d be surprised at how little chefs eat out as we are super busy! But it’s never too late to try new things and here we are! 😊

In the UK we tend to reserve that for Doctors, professors and religious leaders Etc. No criticism intended, just a cultural understanding sought.

Well, put this way.. Chef Neal certainly did not take home the chicken feet ;-) Glad to hear the Casinos (and maybe their buffets) are opened again!

[@videopokerwynn]

@@TimLeeLetsGo the local casinos have the buffet closed some like Ceasars in Las Vegas are back open. Nevada is open. California is opening slowly.

The chicken feet wasn’t finished? 🤔 I love chicken feet. Richmond has some amazing Chinese food! Wish we at least had patios opened up in Ontario? 🙄

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Really hoping Ontario (particularly Toronto) will soon be back to normal. WRT the chicken feet, I don't think he reached beyond the third toe ;-D Hope all is well with you and yours!

[@waynesworld1655]

@@TimLeeLetsGo thanks Tim, hope things get back to normalcy come July or August? I live in Windsor next to Detroit. Border city, the food in Michigan is great too!

[@MedalionDS9]

I know where that restaurant is... I've been to it a number of times over the years

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

It's a bit of a classic Asian restaurant in Richmond

[@andydashou]

Chicken feet are always the challenge, lol

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Agreed... Quite a bit of work 😉

[@KryCaNe]

Do you think you’ll return to this restaurant? I remember watching this back then.

[@MaryNAdam]

I thought the tripe was shredded mozzarella cheese.😂

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Hi Mary, they did shred that very fine, but trust me, it did not taste like mozzarella cheese ;-)

Hi, we are coming to Vancouver from the UK end June can you recommend a good dim sum restaurant. we are staying at the Fairmont WaterFront Thanks Abdul

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Hi Abdul, a warm welcome to Vancouver! If you're in Vancouver, I would recommend Kirin (on Alberni Street) which is just a nice walk to get your appetites going... There is also a fancy place called Mott32 nearby, but it's a bit higher end.

[@willsharecandy8375]

It seemed like Neil did the same thank you gesture with his hand as Grace. Can you explain the error.

[@TwoChefsOneknife]

Grace here! I probably did it wrong too! I was born and raised in Vancouver with a Filipino background so I’m a bit rusty!

[@willsharecandy8375]

@@TwoChefsOneknife Hardly anyone taps their two fingers these days when tea is poured for them. It was a nice thing for you to do. Tim didn't need to call you out on it.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Thanks willsharecandy and Grace, I could certainly be wrong too... I thought it a two finger (middle and ring finger) type scenario... It was all meant in good fun and most of the incidents seem to be at the expense of Chef Neal :-) And a big thank you to Neal for being such a great sport :-)

[@willsharecandy8375]

@@TimLeeLetsGo Hey Tim. I also felt that you singled out Neal too much for being a dim sum newbie. There are so many cuisines that I've never tried, and would also not be familiar with their dishes or methods of eating e.g. Ethiopian food. Also, when Neal was about to eat the fluffy bun, you could have warned him that it was oozy. You are correct that it is a two fingers tap. I think only older Asians (50+) would practice this tradition these days, if at all.

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

@@willsharecandy8375 that's a very fair comment indeed, and will certainly watch for that. Neal is fantastic for trying new things. Oh, yes... The custard bun... Believe me, you should have seen the look on our faces.. we absolutely did not expect that to happen nor did we even think that that would happen! When we we're filming, we can't get to the food very fast and it may sit out for a while.. we are certainly glad the buns were out for about a good 20 minutes or so and were cool. 🙂

red shirt day

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

Yeah, I know 😆

[@newman997]

it's look like they come form Hong Kong

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

I don't think chef Neal looked like he came from Hong Kong🤔
