The Golden Sands Chinese Seafood Restaurant in north Calgary is well set up for families and groups. While Golden Sands has found a number of good suppliers to deliver fresh seafood and other items, it’s not unheard of for staff to drive to Vancouver to source some specialty ingredients that aren’t readily available in Calgary. The room is comfortable but also has a sense of white-tablecloth formality to match Ho’s dedication to the best-of-the-best when it comes to ingredients. In the back, tanks are filled with giant crabs, one of the restaurant’s luxurious specialties. The renovated room is light and bright, with 160 seats, many at large round tables designed to bring together groups of people to celebrate birthdays and other special occasions.

She and her business partner Jason Lu set about building their restaurant. When a large restaurant space on Centre Street north of McKnight Boulevard became available, Ho knew she’d found the perfect location. Ho long wanted to open a restaurant in this city to satisfy the cravings of other Chinese-Canadians who missed dishes that they couldn’t easily find here while introducing a style of food to the rest of us that we may not have been experienced before. Golden Sands was dreamed up by Anna Ho, who moved to Calgary after running a restaurant in Vancouver but yearned for the food she enjoyed in B.C. Manage Print Subscription / Tax Receipt.
