Working jewellery studio in Steveston Village where the pieces are designed and made on site. Custom engagement and remount work is a big part of the business, and they also run hands-on classes if you want to make a ring yourself.

An ice cream counter upstairs in Aberdeen Centre, listed in Tourism Richmond's guide to the city's frozen desserts. Being inside the mall makes it an easy stop mid-shop, and it draws the Golden Village crowd rather than Steveston day-trippers.

Upstairs beauty spa in the Hazelbridge Way complex near Yaohan, doing facials, skin treatments and body care by appointment. Small and quiet compared with the mall traffic downstairs, and phone booking is the norm.
