Sun Fresh Bakery House - Vancouver, British Columbia

Great food for an incredible price :) I got 2 BBQ pork buns (freshly steamed and huge), bamboo wrapped rice, and 3 black sesame buns for just 18 CAD. You can see everyone making the food as you’re shopping and can see that everything is made from scratch each day. ... I’ve also been to this place at closing time and 95%+ of the baked goods are sold out / cleaned out. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Chinatown! Read more

What an amazing find in Vancouver where there are lots of other Asian bakeries. But this one sets itself apart by offering truly authentic, old world delicacies, freshly made and not at crazy exorbitant prices that newer places now charge! I would drop by every time I visit the city! ... The shrimp dumplings are gorging with filling, the century egg porridge is soul-filling, the lotus leaf glutinous rice is steaming fresh and even the simple fried noodles was delectable. I might give the HK rice rolls a miss as they were a bit thick and heavy. Read more

My favourite Chinese bakery for steamed buns in Vancouver. Always fresh, hot, and as per the photo this pork vegetable bun is large in diameter and of the stuffing which the most important. They have lots of variety from some that are made with whole wheat buns also. They also make ... some dumb sum items like sticky rice, har Gow, sui Mai, rice noodles, and lots of other Chinese pastries like coconut cream and pineapple buns, etc. The best part is that it's a mid size bakery store which is fairly inexpensive to its competition. You get more than full value here. Parking in Chinatown is cheap so now worries there. Read more

Best big meat buns in lower mainland, by far. This shop has been around for decades and quality has always been excellent. Cheap and generous portions, it can't get any better! Must try is #6 bun -- it's got a LOT of pork, super juicy, with a chunk of Chinese sausage, ... half an salted egg yolk, and super soft bread on the outside. Their big buns are usually piping hot from the steamer and ready to go. If you order rice rolls it will take 5 minutes or so. Items include lots of individually packed buns like pineapple bun or BBQ bun for around $2, much larger than the retail bakery shops like maxims or St Germain. Also has dim sum, congee, traditional Cantonese deep fried goods (Chinese donut, Chinese sweet donut, sesame puffs, etc). All for really cheap and delicious. Read more

I ordered from Sun Fresh Bakery for the first time and I'm really impressed by the portion sizes and how good everything tasted. I was really surprised by how much filling/meat there is inside the streamed sticky rice in bamboo leaves. Most places give you more rice and barely any ... filling. Same with the steamed bun. Just look at the bread and filling ratio. It is a decent size too. I'll definitely be ordering from them again. Read more
