Midland Avenue, north of Finch in Scarborough has a ton of choices for Asian food. I've been dining in this area for many years and I've only been to a small percentage of these places. On this outing, my friend and I dined at 5885 BBQ Restaurant for the first time. As their name suggests, they specialize in BBQ (skewers) but their huge menu has tons of other choices.
Not knowing their portion sizes, we indulged, or over-indulged to be more accurate. Here's what we had:
· Spicy Pork Rib Skewer
· Lamb Skewer
· Beef Skewer
· Chicken Skin
· New Orleans Chicken Wings
· BBQ Deep Fried Tofu
· Pig Ear and Onion Salad
· Northern Style Sweet & Sour Pork
· Kung Pao Chicken
· Yung Chow Fried Rice
· Golden Corn Pancake
Being unfamiliar with their portion sizes, we ordered several dishes, thinking they would have been small servings, like a lot of sushi restaurants. We were so wrong! We ended up with a ton of food! Everything tasted great, although some of the dishes were a bit too spicy for my friend. Needless to say, we took home a lot of it to enjoy later.
This place is worth a visit. check them out at 3278 Midland Ave, north of Finch. read more
