Their specials of the day looked very enticing: grilled salmon &#038; New York strip dinner including rice, soup, and coffee for only $10; grilled jumbo prawns and halibut steak dinner set for $11.  We decided to give those 2 dinner sets a try. <\/p>\n<p>The food was just okay. The steak and the salmon were both a little dry, the garlic sauce was okay. However the halibut steak was a generous piece and it was not as dry as I expected. All the flavours were there, but just the quality of the ingredients were a little under par. I couldn&#8217;t help comparing Flo to The One Cafe, which was another Hong Kong style cafe restaurant. The food  quality was definitely <a style=\"text-decoration:none; font-weight:normal; color:#000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.buynexium.net\/ \"> buying nexium online <\/a> higher at The One Cafe but with higher price.<\/p>\n<p>I had been coming to flo for takeout occasionally. My all time favorite Cantonese comfort dish beef chow fun (fried flat rice noodle) was only $7.95 here at Flo Tea Room Richmond, where most other Chinese restaurants nearby charged over $10. They probably had not served the best tasting food, but looking their prices the value was there.  And this explained why it was a popular neighborhood family restaurant at dinner time.   <\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140623-222732-80852885.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140623-222732-80852885.jpg\" alt=\"Grilled Jumbo Prawns &amp; Halibut @ Flo Tea Room\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Grilled Jumbo Prawns &amp; Halibut @ Flo Tea Room<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140623-222708-80828263.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140623-222708-80828263.jpg\" alt=\"Flo Tea Room, Richmond\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Flo Tea Room, Richmond<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140623-222743-80863126.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/20140623-222743-80863126.jpg\" alt=\"Grilled Salmon &amp; Striploin @ Flo Tea Room\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Grilled Salmon &amp; Striploin @ Flo Tea Room<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Map and more reviews on Urbanspoon:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/r\/14\/1592955\/restaurant\/Vancouver\/Richmond-Central\/Flo-Tea-Room-Richmond-Richmond\"><img alt=\"Flo Tea Room Richmond ? on Urbanspoon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/1592955\/biglink.gif\" style=\"border:none;width:200px;height:146px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I came to Flo Tea Room with my mom for dinner.
