Burnabyโs Metrotown area is buzzing with stellar food spots.
From top hot pot joints to popular chains like Tendon Kohaku, Earls, and the upcoming MACU Tea, thereโs always something new to try.
The Crystal Mall food court is also a hotspot for xiao long bao and other tasty Asian eats.
Now, weโve got exciting news for foodies in the area.
On Chinese social media, a user (ๅคงไธ) spotted Richmondโs popular Hei Hei Rice Roll making its entrance into Crystal Mall Food Court.
Hei Hei Rice Roll is celebrated for having some of the best Canton-style rice rolls in Richmond.
They opened in the Richmond Public Market back in 2021 and have been a hit ever since, often with a 40-minute wait for their thin, fresh, and delicious rice rolls.
Their menu boasts around 20 different options, including Beef, Pork and Shrimp Rice Rolls, Black Truffle Seafood Rice Rolls, and Mushroom and Pork Rice Rolls.
Aside from their stone-ground rice rolls, they also offer congee, classic Chinese drinks, and desserts like black sesame pudding and fermented rice soy drink.
The new Burnaby location will take over the previous Japanese Kagusa stall in the food court.
While thereโs no details yet about the opening date, itโs safe to assume that theyโll offer the same delicious items as their Richmond counterpart.
Although thereโs already a rice roll stall in the Crystal Mall food court, Hei Heiโs entrance will surely excite Burnaby locals.
