View details
A tiny Japanese-French cake studio on Alexandra Road, open Thursday to Sunday only. Chiffon-based entremets and choux in flavours like matcha yuzu, restrained on sugar and finished carefully. The popular ones sell out, so it is worth calling first.
View details
Cantonese restaurant tucked into an Alexandra Road strip, quieter than the big banquet halls nearby. Dim sum is the draw at lunch: steamed dumplings, rice rolls and taro puffs made to order, with plenty of seafood on the dinner menu.
View details
A small Chinese-run beauty spa on Hazelbridge Way offering facials and skin treatments in a private room setting. Worth a call if you want a treatment in Mandarin without heading to a large clinic.
View details

Three ways in
Every route through the index is an ordinary link with an address of its own. Nothing here needs an account, an app or JavaScript.
The rail lists every trade in the index, with the sub-categories under each one. Each is a real page at its own address, so a filtered view can be bookmarked or sent to someone who needs it.
Where a business trades matters nearly as much as what it does. The neighbourhood list splits Richmond the way the people who live here split it, and each one has a page of its own.
If the name is already known, the search box at the top of this page goes straight there. Part of a name works, and so does a street or a trade.
Why this directory exists
A directory is only worth the reading behind it.
Every entry is written up, categorised and placed by hand. If a business has closed, moved or changed hands, we would rather pull the page than leave a wrong address sitting at the top of a search result.
