Rather than sulk at these ladies not being able to bring out the best of asian cuisine. What about wrongfully representing Richmond with restaurants that offer GREAT FOOD...but CRAPTACULAR SERVICE.

Lets take for example.. 80% of Alexandra give her a rough time with service...what will that say to the outside? The Richmond food scene is like that of Asia in some aspects, dont expect much for service. Its generally accepted by the public already within asians richmond residents to not expect anything.

So the target of this is to open up to the rest of the world and not just Asian tourists that will come here no matter what, the rest of north america will just think our city is crap.

The fact of hte matter is that as a PROUD resident of Richmond, I dont want the city to be misrepresented to the outside world. This is basically a showcase to the world on what we, as Richmond has to offer and if yes, the service at certain places is going to suck. Having someone that KNOWS our city can mask and explain that in a cultural aspect to the world. A visitor might not have the same thing to say

The City of Richmond is PROUD of 3 areas in cuisine. Steveston, Alexandra(food street) and "golden village"
