Review from Christine R.
New Westminster, BC

I don't know how old, exactly the Amelia Restaurant is, but the pink and white decor suggests that the last time they redecorated was in the pastel-obsessed '80s. In any case, it's a pretty popular spot for cheap breakfast specials and free refills.
But my reason for going was because I was craving lemon chicken - and Amelia is one of those old-school greasy spoons with "Chinese/Canadian food."
But horror of horrors, they did not have lemon chicken. I used a bad word, kinda loudly in the midst of the clientele of mostly senior citizens, but was forced to make do with sweet-and-sour pork. It was okay, and there was a lot of it, but it was no lemon chicken, to be sure. (The server also made me put it my own take-out container.)
I would probably go to Amelia again, as apparently the patrons are fiercely loyal and I'm curious about the reason for that. But they'd better have that lemon chicken: I'm still craving the diabolical stuff.
