Metro Vancouver neighbourhood
North Richmond between No. 3 and No. 4 Roads, running from Alderbridge Way up to Cambie Road. Fast-changing ground: townhouse and mid-rise development sits beside long-standing light industry and the Aberdeen retail edge. Cambie Road's restaurant frontage and the summer run of the Richmond Night Market set the area's rhythm.
A Vietnamese counter off McClelland Road baking its own baguettes for banh mi, with pho simmered from beef bones, ginger and toasted onion. Sandwiches are made to order and cheap; the pho and French pastries make it worth sitting down for.

A whisky lounge inside Club Versante with a large by-the-glass list and izakaya-style plates off a robata grill. There is a glassed-in vault dining room, live entertainment several nights a week, and two small private rooms. Dressier than a pub.

A West Cambie Japanese grocer that stocks the specific things other stores skip: baking and cooking ingredients, wagyu and sashimi-grade fish, regional snacks, and hot food to take away. Staff move between Japanese and English without any fuss.

Tucked into the McKim Way plaza off Cambie Road, this is a phone-to-book salon rather than a walk-in shop. Cut, colour and perm work for a largely Chinese-speaking local clientele, with plenty of surface parking out front.

A quick-service bowl shop in the McClelland Road towers doing grain bowls, salads and cold-pressed juice. You order at the counter and it is out in a few minutes. A lighter option in an area otherwise dominated by hot pot and barbecue.

Leslie Road barbershop off Alderbridge, open seven days including Sunday afternoons. Fades, scissor cuts and beard shaping, bookable online, which helps because the chairs fill up quickly on weekends.

An easy-to-miss Taiwanese bakery inside Admiralty Centre, stocked with peanut buns, curry pastries, pork floss rolls and butterfly coconut buns. The taro loaves marbled with sweet taro paste are what regulars actually come in for. Cash only, take-out only.

The restaurant and lounge at the Radisson on Cambie Road, serving West Coast plates and casual Italian. The lounge side is the useful part: a quiet place for a drink near YVR, with parking and hours running from breakfast to late evening.

Small nail studio on Cambie Road in west Richmond, booked by phone. Gel manicures, pedicures and extension work with a focus on design detail, and it is far enough off No. 3 Road that parking is never the problem.

A mid-size Asian supermarket on Odlin Road in West Cambie, quieter than the No. 3 Road giants. Rice in every format, sauces, frozen dim sum, and a produce section priced for people cooking Chinese food at home most nights of the week.
