    Nasi Lemak Platter $39.99
    Denise P.

    I've ordered this Nasi Lemak Platter @makan.to for the second time and was over the moon each time! This delicious feast includes curry chicken, satay chicken, satay beef, beef rendang, sambal, roasted peanuts, eggs, acar, and coconut rice for only $39.99! This is such a reasonable price since this meal was more than enough for 2. The restaurant is located in Queen Street downtown but they offer free delivery for orders over $35 to many areas in the GTA so check out their website for some yummy goodness!

    In Malaysia Nasi Lemak is typically considered fast food, being served very fast and fresh. This nasi lemak platter that I ordered took nearly 40 minutes to be made. For assembling a platter of already cooked foods this is way too long; this was especially frustrating as we were the only customers in the store and the store did not seem to have other takeout or ubereats orders that they were making. Also three of the side dishes came cold. Which is unacceptable. Cold curry chicken is god awful. Avoid this place at all costs!

    Highly recommend their crunchy chicken bao burger - that one is soo good! I tried their steak bao burger but it had a tangy flavour I wasn't really fond of. The pork belly bao was okay to me - not a big fan of fatty pieces. Also ordered a satay chicken bowl and that was definitely a good choice. It comes with cucumbers which really adds some freshness to it, as well as an egg that helps bring all the flavours together quite nicely. Would definitely come back for a chicken bao burger and satay chicken bowl.

    the big bird fried chicken topped with cucumber and our signature spicy mayo notorious p.i.g. braised pork belly with pickled veggies, sweet peanut crumble and our signature braise sauce the bun was lovely but the sandwich itself tasted too oily.

I noticed a lot of Western restaurants lately are adding Asian elements to their menus. Some places I've liked before, like Joey, have a lot of Asian influence now, which doesn't always work. But at Lee, the combination of tacos and spring rolls actually works really well. The salmon is incredibly tender and flavorful too. Overall, a very pleasant dining experience.

Every table was occupied when I arrived, and I was happy to chill out by the bar and look over the cocktail menu. Cool that they had a drink called Shanghai 75 since my friend was from there, bonus! The menu selections were expertly picked, of course, and gave a good sense of the theme of this Asian fusion food and how the chef thinks. Take a look at my pictures and set your sights on another 'Licious coming up for one of these fun events. Think of 'Licious as much more bold and light hearted way to enjoy some of Toronto's finest restaurants and see how well they work under pressure, which make these so popular and so much fun!

Every review I read about the place raved about the flavors so I came in with high expectations. We ordered 5 dishes and although there were a variety of textures and layers to each dish, everything seemed to have the same flavour or garnish. After a while everything started to taste very similar to the dish brought out just before. Crispy garlic and chili oil seemed to be the lingering taste in each dish. The only item that didnt contain these were the tacos which werent anything special. The tofu dish wasthe most enjoyable for me but again was topped with a lot of that chili oil that took over after a while. Truffe fried rice had a beautiful aroma but the truffe flavor wasnt as strong. Just missed the mark with me on this one but truly had high hopes for it. Great ambiance. Friendly service. Two levels. Bar seating available as well.

We had: - seafood pasta - Fried chicken w/ rice and peas - Pork noodles I especially enjoyed the seafood pasta as it was filling and flavorful. There was just one aspect that I found really annoying with these guys. It wasn't that they charged $20-30 per entree, no... because if other cuisines and restaurants can get away with that price point, there's no reason why Caribbean can't be elevated enough to as well. It's that they charged $5 for the most piddling amount of ox tail gravy.. the nickel and diming felt greedy and left me with a bad taste. I've already paid $20-30, don't charge me $5 for 2 tbsp of gravy. I wouldn't go back, but if you want to have a slightly elevated Caribbean experience and just vibe, it's not a bad option.

We decided to go family style because there were specific items we've seen online that we wanted to try! Also just a heads up, the portions aren't that big. What we ordered: Izakaya shrimp pasta: Very garlicky and creamy! Had a great flavour and it was very unique as it was made with ramen noodles. Would definitely be too heavy if I were to finish all of it by myself, the few bites I had were enough for me! Popcorn shrimp fried rice: Was very excited to try this one and it had a really rich umami flavour. The tobiko eggs added a nice crunch and sweetness. A tag bit oily but that is to be expected sometimes with fried rice. Half-portion of jerk chicken: Tasted pretty standard but it was quite juicy. I liked the pickles it came with!

Instead we got to try the restaurants version (there was complementary dinner as part of the class). This was the best fine dining dim sum we had ever had.
