    Cross-section of my red bean sesame ball
    Mary T.

    Tip: The bakery accepts cash payment only. My review is for Les Châteaux Bakery, which is next door to Les Châteaux Restaurant. My dad came back from fetching lunch for my mom and me today. He normally gets sesame balls with red bean paste for my mom from T&T Supermarket. He came back and couldn't find any parking at the Warden and Steeles location. It doesn't help that we have a bunch of snowbanks occupying parking spots. It's one of the reasons why parking at Markham plazas these days is more challenging than normal. Here's my version. I went to New Kennedy Square today at 12:30 pm thinking that I would have better luck finding a parking spot. As expected, it was busy. The best part about driving a smaller vehicle is that it fits in weird parking spots. I took a parking spot that had a quarter of it with a snowbank that had slid into it, but was frozen. I backed into it and visited an eatery that I had in mind. As I was leaving this mall, it dawned on me that I should seek out a bakery and find red bean sesame balls. I was practically at the exit near CoCo Fresh Tea and Juice, and spotted Les Châteaux Bakery on my right. I went inside. I clearly looked like I was on a mission to find something. If I wasn't carrying lunch with me, I would have bought a bunch of buns here. I saw these fun hawthorn and date goodies. I still don't know what they were, but I need to go back and get some. I love hawthorn and have rarely seen it advertised at a bakery. I saw pineapple buns that looked so good. Same goes with the hot dog buns. The woman behind the counter and I had this conversation in Cantonese, but you get the translated English version: "Are you looking for something specific?" she asked me. "Red bean sesame balls," I said, beaming as they were in front of me next to her. "How many would you like?" she asked. "Three, please," I said, remember that my dad always gets my mom three. "If you get six, there's no tax," she reminded me. "That's right. I'll get six," I said. They were $10 after tax for six balls. I don't buy them often. I don't even know whether that price is good. This place accepts cash only. As someone who rarely has cash on me, I started off with $20 in cash today. I had $11.25 left. I could buy these sesame balls. Yay! She put three sesame balls in a couple of plastic bags. She then put both bags in another small bag with handles. I thanked her and wished her a great day. She reciprocated. I decided to give a bag of three sesame balls to my parents. I had the other three. I can see why my mom loves these sesame balls. This place makes them bigger than T&T. The one that I ate had a thorough coating of sesame seeds. It was so fresh and crispy when I took my first bite. I used to dislike red bean anything growing up. I like it as an adult. The red bean paste was so good. It didn't have any added sugar. It was smooth and dense. Delicious! I polished off the other two sesame balls after my workday was over. Excellent! My mom ate all of hers. My dad seemed so relieved that I got some for her. I'll be back to try the various baked buns that this place offers. I saw swiss cake rolls. I look forward to getting one to enjoy. (97)

    Malaysian Curry Chicken + Egg Tart
    Karen K.

    It's been a very long time since I've been here, but after looking at the menus, I decided to try it out again. The menus look and sound very good, and the price points are really good compared to other restaurants in Markham. We ordered from the Markham/Tuesday specials, which includes the dish, soup, hot milk tea, AND an egg tart. All for $11.99. That's a really good deal. Flavours are mediocre, but it still hits the spot. The Malaysian Curry and Curry Chicken tasted more like Portuguese sauce to me. There's no spice to it, so add some chilli oil in it for some kick. The Satay Beef Fried Noodles were decent as well, portion was big, sauce was fine, but there was very little beef slices inside. Looking at some other dishes from the tables beside me, they looked more appealing. I'll have to come back and try other dishes. There's lots of items to choose from, lots of specials, and their menus have a lot of combos as well. Service wasn't that great. There were 4 servers, but it still took them some time to serve us (e.g. bringing our change back, getting take out containers, napkins, refilling water, etc).

    Continuing on my quest to find the best HK Style restaurant in Toronto, we came on a Sunday afternoon and it was completely packed. The restaurant is located inside the New Kennedy Square and finding a parking spot was frustrating. The decor was nothing special and seating was quite cramped. The service is essentially non-existent. I had to go get our own plates and it was incredibly difficult to even get the waitress's attention. To be fair though, they are quite busy. But still, even for a Chinese restaurant that isn't really known for their service, this was extremely terrible. We ordered the Hand shredded Chicken, Fish Fragrant Eggplant, Yang Chow Fried Rice, and their Fried Chicken Rice noodle. Everything was quite good but the fried rice and noodle dishes were a bit too oily for me. They have afternoon tea and a bunch of other good deals ranging from $6.99 to $11.99. Although they primarily serve HK cha chaan teng dishes, They also offer a lot South East Asian dishes like Laksa. The food is honestly quite tasty and portion sizes is great. But I don't think I would come back again just because finding a parking spot was such a pain in the ass and the service was horrible.

    Curry crab
    Winnie H.

    Curry crab is their signature dish. It is more on Malaysia style curry. Curry is good to go with rice or nan like bread. General dish is good . Service is fast . And it is more on family casual type.

    Tomato pork chop with rice (top), friend chicken noodle (bottom).
    Helen T.

    好有鑊氣! Came here on a weekday around 7pm for dinner and it was packed! Luckily parking was extremely accessible/ lots of spots were available! I honestly cannot complain about the food, especially for its price point! The service isn't the greatest either, but honestly when you're coming to these places... you're just want cheap/ reasonable priced food that is decent quality! Please do not expect to impress a date here, unless your date is usually casual and down to earth. Cons: Cash only for their daily special- tax is still applicable. Pro: Most of their daily special comes with soup and drink

    Restaurant is located near the entrance of the mall. I came on a Tuesday for their lunch special. It was really busy. Just one thing to note is they don't have high chairs or booster seats so make sure to bring your own if needed. The lunch special menu is $11.99 for a dish comes with soup, hot milk tea and an egg tart. I ordered a stir fried chicken with ramen and a shredded pork fried noodle. The shredded pork fried noodle wasn't as good as the sauce was overflowing the noodles. The egg tarts were delicious. The portions were pretty decent and the price is amazing.

    Time has so changed! Les Chasteaux has gone All-Recession mode. They have discount menus from Monday to Sunday, with Wednesday the most affordable at $9.99, beating many food courts offerings. The Monday to Friday menus focus on protein on rice or noodles, and the Saturday and Sunday menu focus on dinner dishes. You order bowls of rice extra. We came on Sunday, and found the dinner dishes had lot of meat. Portion was good. The recession menus are good deals. The food is just about the same as before (same over salty, over oily, good wok air). If you like the food here before you likely enjoy it. If you don't like it before you won't be surprised. This is layman, neighborhood Chinese diner food. Still recommended. Will return.

    Shredded chicken rice

    Very good Malay-style cafe with good selections. Their Malay beef brisket curry was so flavourful and the meat was very tender. It came with French baguettes and they matched up so well with the creamy curry sauce. I couldn't resist returning the next day for some other dishes. They also have some other Chinese-style dishes and an HK-style lunch menu. Will try them out some other day. Recommended.

    Indonesian fried rice
    Rachel L.

    I love Malaysian/Indonesian cuisine so I was excited to try this place. I was hesitant given that they are more known for their HK bakery and HK style cafe. The fried rice isn't good at all. The flavours wasn't there and didn't really taste anything unique other than rice and soy sauce. The char kway teow was alright, but nothing compare to other ones we have had at other places. It was more of a thick rice noodle with soy sauce, mixed in with some shrimp. The service was awful. We ordered a HK milk tea which didn't come until we asked for the bill. We couldn't ask anyone during the meal because it was impossible to flag them down. They rushed to take our order after sitting down for a few minutes. The only take cash. The one good thing is that their portions are big. We ordered a fried rice and noodle for two people, and we had leftovers for both dishes. Our bill came to a bit over $40 including tips and tax. Regardless, I won't be back here any time soon.

    Portuguese sauce baked pork chop with rice
    Gabriel S.

    The "Penang Char Kway Teow" is good - if you don't treat it as Penang Char Kway Teow. It's actually dry fried prawn horfun. It uses hor fun, not the thinner sort of rice noodles. It's topped with fried and spring onion, tomato and cucumber. The wok hei (smoky wok flavour) is pretty good, it's a huge serving and there's a lot of big prawns, but there're no other ingredients (oh, but there's also onion strangely). There's also no chili. The Indonesian fried rice is pretty tasty with good wok hei. Unfortunately the Nonya fried rice is only OK. It has a hint of sambal belachan and a touch of spiciness. There's only a little wok hei Portuguese sauce pork chop was ok. It had a coconut sauce that looked like curry but didn't taste of it (as it's supposed to). It was also odd in coming with peppers and onion. Sambal belachan eggplant was decent. Portions here are big. But the service is bad. They screwed up the order and brought the wrong dish once. Then an order of macaroni came as rice - we were told that despite the menu, macaroni hadn't been available for a long time. Yet the server didn't tell us this upon ordering.

    One of the newer Hong Kong Cafe style restaurant with set breakfast. Love their simple brown and white color decor. Booth seating was comfortable.We had breakfast set of toast, noodles and coffee. Enjoy all of it! My husband enjoyed his pineapple bun with butter so much, he had another! Service was good as well. Will keep this one to repeat for our next visit!

    Kristen W.

    Love the food here, they are a Hong Kong cafe but have Malaysian and Singaporean dishes as well! Service is quick and the restaurant is clean. Overall a great place for a quick meal! The chicken rice and the kuay teow are my favourite dishes.

    Wynne L.

    We came on a chilly spring day around lunch time. The only available seats were right by the door to the parking lot. We didn't want to wait so we took that table. It was quite cold sitting there. Every time someone would come in there would be a cool breeze. Good thing food didn't take too long to come out so we warmed up a bit once we started eating. The char kwei teow was bigger than expected and very tasty. I didn't really taste the heat from the chilli peppers but I did also stay away from them. The side order of veggies was cooked just right and a decent size. We'll be back to try other dishes.

The use of traditional elements, paper-cut window designs, red Spring Festival couplets, old-style newspaper wall coverings, and exposed brick adds a strong sense of nostalgia. It feels immersive and intentional, almost like stepping into a countryside home in Dongbei rather than a typical restaurant. The décor isn't fancy, but it's rich in cultural detail and warmth, perfectly matching the hearty, comforting style of Northeast Chinese cuisine. The space is unique and perfect for taking photos. The food here is very generous. We ordered the 4-person set with two side pots. Tomato Braised Beef Brisket and Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms and the portions were huge. Both pots arrived steaming hot and filled to the brim, clearly meant for sharing. The braised beef was rich and hearty, while the chicken pot was comforting and full of flavor, making it perfect for group dining or cold weather meals. Combined with the rustic, traditional décor, it really feels like authentic Northeast Chinese comfort food. The food and atmosphere were excellent, though the service was a bit lacking. Prices are reasonable for the generous portion sizes and the unique restaurant décor.

I was hoping to find something special on the menu. The Peking duck caught my eye at around $70, but then I discovered that almost everything else was extra--lettuce wraps, stir-fried duck meat, fried rice, and soup. By the time you add the extras, the bill is easily another $50 or more, bringing the total to well over $120. We decided to pass, and judging from the dishes we did order, that was probably the right decision. The hot and sour soup had plenty of heat and tang but lacked depth of flavor and was under-seasoned for my taste. Fortunately, we only ordered a small bowl. The deep-fried tofu was bland and forgettable. The stir-fried shrimp was acceptable but nothing special. The biggest disappointment was the sweet and sour pork. I specifically asked the server to make sure the pork was crispy, but it arrived soft and lumpy rather than light and crunchy. Even the complimentary red bean dessert soup was watery and lacked flavor. Our bill came to about $104 for two people. For the quality of the food, I didn't feel it offered good value. Sadly, after several disappointing visits, I don't think we'll be returning.

The lid on my shredded potato salad wasn't on properly and the sauce leaked through my Fantuan bag. The food gets five stars. Sadly, the lid on my potato salad wasn't securely on the container. I had my food in my insulated bag, so the sauce leaked into the Fantuan bag and my insulated bag. Luckily, my car was fine. As a result, my rating is four stars. I wanted to try a new eatery. I looked at my Fantuan app and noticed He Bei Chinese Cuisine. It had dumplings and snacks that I enjoy, so I said yes to placing a dinner order from this eatery. I ordered these items: - Pork and chive steamed dumplings (large has 14 dumplings) - Tea eggs - Shredded potato salad On Fantuan, when you purchase $15 worth of food, you get the shredded potato salad for a cent. Deal! After placing my order near my home, I drove over to this eatery. The drive was ten minutes. I was given an estimated time of fifteen minutes. It was ready in ten minutes. I had no problem finding this eatery. There was plenty of parking. I pulled into a spot and walked in. I saw the Yubu sign. My heart sank, as I loved the Korean tofu pockets from this joint. I liked seeing places to sit down and eat at He Bei. Nice! A woman behind the counter came over. I said that I had a Fantuan order. She talked to me in Mandarin. I don't understand it, but we were fine communicating with each other in our languages. She pointed out the blue Fantuan bag on the table behind me. I thanked her and wished her a nice day. She said thanks right back. I put my food in my insulated bag. With the leak, I managed to launder the Fantuan bag and clean my insulated bag. After I cleaned up, I had dinner at home. The food was amazing and filling! I loved the shredded potato salad. Sure, a lot of the sesame-soy sauce was gone. However, it tasted yummy. It was worth the cent! The steamed pork and chive dumplings were so good. I didn't dunk them in soy sauce. The filling had so much moisture that I felt like I was eating soup dumplings. The filling had yummy flavour and the dumplings were steamed to perfection. Excellent! You can buy frozen dumplings from this place. I'll need to do it. The tea eggs were the perfect snack while streaming hockey games. I peeled the shells off both of them. The eggs were cracked to allow the amazing soy-based sauce to marinate and get into the eggs. Delicious! I'm a fan. I'll take a closer look at the lids on my food next time. I'm glad that I put food in my insulated bag. It saved cleaning my car's upholstery! (59)

So we ordered Maggi Lobster (~3lbs) for $34/lb, and stir fried beef with Chinese broccoli (gai lan). The lobster was cooked perfectly, with the Maggi sauce not being too salty.

    Was really hoping this place was worth the drive in the middle of the weekday from downtown. Our…read moreclients took us here as we were the out of towners and wanted to show us the OG spot for the famous lobster tower. The restaurant was surrounded in tanks full of lobster, crab, seafood and then a ton of dry aged steaks. Definitely something you don't see in California. Clean and spacious. Service was what you would expect from a Chinese seafood restaurant. Overall the meal was good, for me and a few others at the table the star of the show was actually the fish. The lobster while impressive when they brought it out was not as flavorful as one would have expected. And same with the king crab legs - my favorite have been the ones I've had in SF. Was interesting to come and experience it but I wouldn't come back. I prefer quality food over an IG-moment.

    Fishman Lobster Clubhouse Restaurant on Finch Avenue East in Scarborough serves an unforgettable…read moreseafood feast, though you will need plenty of patience. The establishment is famous for its iconic, towering mountains of deep-fried Hong Kong-style lobster and giant Alaskan king crabs.Without a doubt, the food is exceptional. The seafood is extraordinarily fresh--pulled straight from massive surrounding glass tanks--and prepared to absolute perfection with their signature Maggi sauce and garlic toppings. However, the major downside here is the notoriously slow and chaotic service. Due to the massive crowds, servers can be hard to flag down, orders take a long time to arrive, and the staff often feels rushed or inattentive. Despite the frustrating wait times and subpar service, the spectacular flavors and theatrical presentation make it a worthwhile destination for patient seafood lovers.Watch the massive lobster towers being prepared and served fresh at this iconic spot

    New Century will feed a large group. Their lobster, Dungeness crab, and sea bass combo for eight…read more($798) would satisfy ten or twelve. The individual New Century slow boiled soup is hardest to share but secure some empty bowls and you can divide the hefty portion. In the winter, there's a silkiness to the piping hot consommé that sooths a dry throat and has an umami essence infused with abalone, ginseng, and pork. There's plenty to choose from in the house signature combo platter including roasted duck, soy sauce chicken, BBQ pork, pork slices, and seaweed salad. Saving my stomach for the later dishes, I had a taste of the duck (a good start with crispy skin) and BBQ pork (satisfactory and well flavoured). With the generous portion of chicken in the combo platter, the slow cooked chicken with abalone broth seemed like overkill. I've never been a huge fan of this dish that's served cold since I prefer chicken hot. Still, I understand it's the jelly layer between the skin and meat that people enjoy. And to be fair, the chicken was tender, and New Century certainly didn't skimp on the ginger and scallion oil. For those who tend to fill-up before the "main dishes", the stars of the combo arrive mid-meal. The stir-fried Vancouver crabs with silver fish in HK style spicy sauce needs to be eaten at arrival as the crunchy coating is best straight from the fryer. And despite not looking spicy, the dish has a light heat that permeates in the background. Additionally, the crab was fresh and meaty, cooked well so it remained delicately flakey. The amount of sweet and sticky sauce used in the stir-fried lobsters with scallion in Maggie sauce was well balanced, lightly covering the crustaceans. Both lobsters were substantial; even after eating many pieces, we still had plenty of leftovers. This is a long review head to Gastro World for the rest.

    Very good dim sum! Super large restaurant with huge screen TVs. Great friendly service. Definitely…read morewill come back!

    We first noticed this restaurant because the name in Chinese is "like to be with you". It's Friday…read morethat after my appointment around the area. They have different special offers each day from Monday to Friday. We ordered the special Linyi Style Stir Fried Chicken on Friday. And we also ordered Boiled Basa Fish with pickled Cabbage & Green Pepper. They were pretty traditional Chinese styles. The white rice or brown rice both can have as much as we could. That's good for men. We both like here, but they don't offer specials during the weekends. But they do have other special packages, just a bit different. And they also have the membership that we could collect points and then we could use the points to get drinks or different snacks or dishes.

    New sauerkraut fish soup spot in Markham…read more A chain from asia that has finally made it's way to Markham. They are known for their sauerkraut fish soup that comes with unlimited self serve rice on the side. Servers were attentive, spacing of the seating and tables were tight. Often times people kept brushing up against my chair while getting up to go get their rounds of rice. Although not a deal breaker, was annoying while trying to enjoy your food. The portions are big enough for 2 if you get a large, but since it was our first time we wanted to try 2 different soups. Here's what we got: Chicken wings 4/5 - Came out raw the first time after we bit into it. But quickly flagged a server to let them know how this issue. They brought us a new one shortly after that was perfectly cooked, juicy and crispy on the outside. Laotan boiled fish with pickled cabbage and chili 4/5 - Their number one classic so we had to try. It's sour and spicy with the right amount of kick to it. Basa fish filets were also tasty. Came out luke warm. Princess's tomato fish 4/5 - Packed with tomato flavour. Savoury and paired well with the basa fish filet. Came with bean curd noodles as well. Came out luke warm. Easily would be a five star review if both soups that we got came out piping hot rather than lukewarm. Regardless, a great spot for a quick in and out meal.

    Great food, friendly service. What more could you ask for…read more The decor is amazing, really feels special compared to the boring decor of other Chinese restaurants. The portions are large and great for sharing. If you can handle spicy, grab a friend that can also handle it and you're in for a good time here. Note that this place only accepts cash and debit.

    If you like spice this is the place for you. Located at the commerce gate complex there is…read moretypically a wait to get a table here. Wait list is old school...someone writes your name and number in a notebook and you are called when your table is ready. The interior is reminiscent of the old school taverns you see in those old Chinese movies where the traveller has spent days walking or on a horse and comes upon a tavern where the interior is all wooden tables and benches. Dining style and dishes are all family style. You order a couple of dishes and then add rice. Spice level can be adjusted and even at 'less' the heat level was high. Definitely generous use of Szechwan peppercorns! Food is very flavourful and depending on preference some might find the oil level high. The clientele is mainly Mandarin speaking and if you are Asian they will immediately communicate in Mandarin with you but I did see the staff switch to English where needed. Service was patient and attentive.
