Ming Wo

Ming Wo Cookware has been at 23 East Pender Street since 1917. For years there has been an awning on the front of the building. But for a while in late 2016 and early 2017 it had been taken down revealing some wonderful hand painted lettering on the upper windows! A new awning has since been installed.


Update in January 2020, sadly due to problems in the neighbourhood the family made the decision to close the flagship store in Chinatown. The three other store locations are unaffected and will remain open. More info in this piece in the Vancouver Sun.
