Richmond food lovers, the wait is finally over!
We shared back in June 2024 that the spotted ChoCho, the premium all-you-can-eat (AYCE) hot pot brand from Dolarshop is making its way to Richmond at Aberdeen Centre.
After much anticipation, the new location quietly soft opened on September 29th, bringing its beloved hot pot experience to Richmond locals.
If you’re familiar with ChoCho’s first Metro Vancouver location in Burnaby, you’ll know that the brand has been a huge hit since opening in 2023.
Their Burnaby outpost, which evolved from the Dolar Shop concept, became so popular that reservations were often hard to snag during summer.
Now, Richmond residents can indulge in this high-quality all-you-can-eat hot pot experience without the need to travel to Burnaby.
The new Richmond location, situated on the first floor of Aberdeen Centre across from RBC, features a different vibe from its Burnaby sibling.
While the Burnaby location has a darker, modern, and sleek aesthetic, the Richmond outpost has opted for a clean, minimalist design.
With light wooden accents, sleek furniture, and booth-style seating, the space feels open and organized, creating a cozy yet upscale ambiance.
Modern lighting fixtures and neutral tones contribute to a calm, welcoming atmosphere—ideal for an intimate dining experience.
ChoCho is known for its top-tier ingredients and extensive selection, offering over 47 dishes at their MARKET TABLE, all included in the AYCE concept.
Fans of the Burnaby location can expect the same high-quality meats, seafood, veggies, and more at the new Richmond outpost.
All-you-can-eat hot pot isn’t anything new in Richmond.
The shift to AYCE hot pot has been a lifeline for many restaurants in the hot pot scene, especially as they navigate economic challenges.
ChoCho’s Burnaby location has thrived after transitioning from the Dolar Shop to AYCE.
With ChoCho now open in Aberdeen Centre for dinner during the soft opening phase (5PM – 1AM), Richmond locals have a new premium hot pot option to explore.
