1. Sam's Congee Delight
From nostalgic past, I remember my Parents waking me up near midnight to go to a back street in Hong Kong for a Midnight Congee. A handful of people stood at an unassigned(to me at least) spot awaiting for something magical to arrive. A mid-age Man…More »
2. Fish Soup Noodles House
I had suspicions that -=healthy=- Chinese/Cantonese Food trends don't come directly from Hong Kong/Guangdong, China.
It stops over in Richmond, BC then eventually if ever lands in Markham/Richmond Hill, ON.
The question is if that trend is sustainable…More »
3. The Royal Chinese Restaurant
Twice I polished off the complimentary Soup, mostly on-my-own. (+0.5)
Twice I love reading those dishes(chinese) labeled on NEON papers.
Twice I ate Black Bean Clam dish(typhoon shelter-style)($11.95).
Twice the Waiters came chit-chat…More »
4. Legend Chinese Restaurant
Legend has it that...
Hui yum cha, taun yut zhon leun geen.
Lai-Jing gay ho gor wo.
See ha seen.
Markham, Richmond Hill, Scarborough.
Those are built-in to my Dimsumming patterns.
Probably same Mental GPS for other Chinese also.
Reason? Legend's simply…More »
5. Fantasy Eatery
Fantasy Eatery has been a main staple for Chinese food for years before I even had a driver's license. It's in that CORE group(Korean Grill House, Keung Kee, and Dumpling King) of Silver Star Blvd back when there was limited Asia fare in Scarborough…More »

Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
Not in the most pleasant of plazas but at least you're nearby Scarb-Grace Hospital.
Both interior and exterior look like... Well like Chinese restaurants on DT Baldwin.
My supreme picky Cantonese eating Friend told me about PK as Family-owned.

7. Maple Yip Seafood Restaurant
Scarborough, ON M1S 5H5
(416) 297-1438
Category:
Seafood
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
Maple Yip has been in existence for a long time.
It needs no introduction or even another Fan.
I've never been a regular there and it's due to fate...
I began with all time fav but now closed Magic Wok(Scarboro).
When that closed, we moved onto Fantasy…More »
8. Fish Ball Place
. Curry Fish Balls
($1.50)
---------
Quintessential Hong Kong Aphrodisiac.
Well, as much as Oysters anyways.
Want your Balls spicy or non-spicy?
There's only one TRUE option, you know.

9. New Markham Villa
New Markham Villa is in a hidden street of Old Kennedy which to non Markham/Scarborough Citizens, it doesn't even exist but to those residents especially of Chinese descent it is well known because it is in the same building as Club 300(Bowling…More »
10. Dragon Boat Fusion Cuisine
Tis the season for Dragonboats, otherwise know as Duanwu Festival.
DB Fusion's website speaks for itself...
Focus - Banquets & Special Occasions.
Design - Class with Elegance.
FUSION - Tradition meets Modern
Not quite speaking my language but…More »
11. Miu Garden
It's everything you can imagine for a Chinese restaurant. The elegant dramatic decor, the busy staff doing MARATHONS and most of the restaurant blocked off for a 50th anniversary banquet celebration but no dance floor available which can be a good…More »
12. Elegant Chinese Cuisine
The HUNT for Chinese Hakka was quite interesting to say the least. It's quite a Hot topic in Toronto simply because it almost seems that even Chinese Hakka immigrants have a hard time tracking it down and mostly finding the Indian version of Hakka…More »
13. Royal Teahouse
This is known as a Dim Sum place and not much else. Dinner hours this place is very quiet unlike their Dim Sum hours. It is in a small quiet plaza on Woodbine in the middle of 16th & Hwy 7 which makes them convenient for some local residents and…More »
14. Casa Imperial Fine Chinese Cuisine
Scarborough, ON M1W 3T4
(416) 756-2788
Category:
Dim Sum
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
Casa Imperial took my Virginity. First time in my life I've EVER spent $7.10(!) on Har Gow, OMG. It got me all emotional, I felt my Wallet getting gooey wet. They put their Name next to the word "Har Gow" so how can a first-timer avoid doing that…More »
15. Fisherman Villa
Scarborough, ON M1S 2B7
(416) 321-1625
Category:
Seafood
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
The Chinese name makes it an indication that it has changed ownership as a previous review stated, however if you don't read Chinese then you would think nothing has changed since the English business name stays Fisherman Villa. I've been here for…More »
16. Ginger & Onion Cuisine
G&O shares space with Pacific Mall and Market Village but it's further away from that central core therefore anyone walking towards the entrance area is either coming to G&O or the Vegetarian Restaurant next door, but mostly for G&O.
Why that is…More »
17. Full House Chinese Cuisine
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! Perfect night for observing Full Moon.
As it is a festival day that many Chinese would go out to celebrate with a Family dinner, so did my family. Nothing too special, it's all about just getting together and sharing some…More »
18. Richmond Court
Sometimes I think that I can be blinded by Nostalgia and Memories that never seem to go away. I'm probably not the only one as most HK people always claim that the Milk Tea in HK is much better quality. I'm probably one of them as I always think…More »
19. Regal Chinese Restaurant
Total WITHDRAWAL symptoms while I take every bite of Dim Sum here. I grew up on this food category and as I eat I start to miss the OLD-SCHOOL Dim Sum more and more. This is of course MY personal preference according to MY background. Maybe the…More »
20. Ming Lou Chinese Restaurant
What do you feed the Lunch Special Queen at 10:30 pm?
How about Late Night Special?
Yeah, she's some kind of "SPECIAL"alright! :P
So you had the Peking Duck at Ming Lou? I might have just consumed that same Peking Duck you had. How nice of you to…More »
21. Century Palace Chinese Restaurant
Back in the days when Chinese food/grocery only existed in China Town this was one of the few Chinese Restaurants that existed in Scarborough/Markham borders. This being said, the business here was INSANE and it was as crowded as any Canton Dim Sum…More »
22. Peak Top Cuisine
This Peak Top location WOWed us when it first opened near Vaughan Mills. Having been to the one in Markham, what surprised us most is that this location's DECOR was upscaled as though you think that the Markham spot isn't a sister location.
Stepping…More »
23. Mong Kok Chinese Restaurant
The setting kinda reminds me of the long time existing Chinese Restaurant near Sheppard and Midland called Scarborough Grand Seafood Restaurant. The GOLD borders, frames as well as the Chandeliers very reminiscent. Obviously it is much newer decor so…More »
24. May Shi Yuen Dim Sum - CLOSED
Scarborough, ON M1V 4S5
(905) 948-8868
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
In cold weather, a classic rice dish to warm ones stomach is satisfying.
Dad continuously spoke(10+ braindead yrs) about time in HK about such.
Slaving(!) over the traditional oven keeping the fire alive to cook the Meal.
How lucky we are to have…More »
25. Ho Ho Bbq
Scarborough, ON M1V 5L6
(416) 321-9818
What else do you think I would do the day after having Mock Roast Pork at Joe Yee? Maybe I'm getting too predictable, my apologies. I walked inside and notice the BBQ Cook standing there and after realizing I am there he went to the back and started…More »
26. Original Congee
Scarborough, ON M1V 5P6
(416) 396-3779
After having some SOLID food sitting in my stomach, I was looking for something to clear my soon to be digestion issues. I walked in to the T&T food court at 11:30 am and the only stall opened was Original Congee which was great because that is what…More »
27. Macau & Portuguese Food
What's Macau? Macau is not a Bird of Prey. Macau is not edible either.... unless you're China in which case you consume Macau and give it an interesting designation known as Special Administrative Regions. What's Macau famous for? GAMBLING of…More »
28. Oriental Cafe
Chef's Special Beef Noodle Soup($7.99). I was 20 minutes late to Oriental Cafe because of the stupid Rutherford road rush hour nightmare, Mayor Bevilacqua better take notes. That 20 minutes cost me the Lunch Special pricing dude, YOU owe me!
One of…More »
29. Fantastic Curry House
Inside a plaza that caters to the local residential area. Fantastic Curry House has a 10% discount during their GRAND opening period. This attracts a few more locals mostly those that are tired of cooking at home or not worth cooking at home due to…More »
30. Kenly's Noodle - CLOSED
Toronto, ON M1S 5H5
(416) 291-8580
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
Kenly's Noodle? I didn't spell it wrong, this is NOT Kenny's Noodle but it has that similar concept however it still adopts the previous business's concept of Cantonese Fast Food/Cafe/Restaurant and you'll even notice the Desserts they offer are the…More »
31. Hipot
In the world of Greater Toronto Hot Pot, Hipot has a place on my list of Hot Pot Restaurants. It had a place at the prior location at Commerce Gate and now it continues to an extend for different reasons. I'm not saying it's the place to be but I was…More »
32. Made In China Hot Pot
Made in China. No, it's not a Chinese shop that sells T-shirts for $1.00 or Pirated DVD for $4.00. It's not even what the Downtown crowd would imagine it to be since the Scarborough one focuses on AYCE Hotpot(Soupy one, not the Pot Rice). Same…More »
33. Kim Tao Hot Pot
Useful or Useless reviews. It's not determined by medium as much but by the users that feed input into them be it on the technological web or traditional word-of-mouth. It is also by the end-users that consume the input...
Reviews, just like Meals…More »
34. Made In China
Toronto, ON M5B 1S1
(416) 596-1516
Category:
Chinese
Neighbourhoods: Ryerson, Downtown Core
I must be the only person to complete the Made-in-China tour as I've been to the Scarborough hot-spot as well. The design colors and patterns of the space is similar but I feel much more open as there are less barriers and overhead vents in the way.…More »
35. iCook Buffet
I went to iCook a couple times and to me it's very average as a Hot Pot destination. There are definitely better ones as I'm one of those that do not like to go up to the Marketplace-style display to pick out my selection of food because some items…More »
36. Wonton Chai Noodle
Scarborough, ON M1S 5J5
(416) 335-6326
Categories:
Ethnic Food,
Chinese
Neighbourhood: Scarborough
Good place for a Pre-dinner Noodle if you're Ridin' Solo(DeRulo style). Closes early so most of my attempts at coming here before was always SHOT down, as I come after 7 pm or so. Simple place, straightforward Menu, friendly Cantonese/English…More »
37. Bayview Court Chinese Restaurant
My paths with Chiu Chow cuisine is somewhat limited RELATIVELY speaking.
Easily the reason being Cantonese is the default selection by Availability and Taste.
I know the very basic orders of a Meal and therefore I will share with you here. 2.5'd
1 -…More »
38. Sugar Sweet Cafe
As much as I like value-plus portions, I felt something was missing.
It could've been cos' there's so many customers, kitchen overwhelmed.
One day I was amazed by the plentiful portion of Noodles in the bowl.
Another day I look at the sad Sauce poured…More »
39. New Sun BBQ
While "others" come back from Trips to start indulging in Sushi, I get back to basics more affordable consumption methods. Plain old BBQ Rice Box at New Sun BBQ. While the 1 item BBQ Rice Box cost $4.50, the interestingly named "Four Treasures"…More »
40. Congee Time
I looked across to another table with a couple BIG bellied men and if you saw them you would also assume they know a thing or two about eating as they shared what must have been 5+ dishes between them. They looked like the kind of people that we…More »
