📍Cha Kee 茶記 My fav HK cafe in GTA❤️It was Saturday around 2pm and there was lineup when we got there. The staffs were friendly and the place looked clean. Great for small group of people since it’s the space was bit small overall. Their HK milk tea was great! The only thing I wanna complain about is they only open until 6pm😭😭 1️⃣咖喱牛腩出前一丁Curry brisket with instant noodles :🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 I saw someone by the window eating this while we were waiting to be seated. It looked appetizing so I asked the waiter about it and ended up getting the same. And it’s AMAZING - the brisket was tender and flavoured, and the noodle was soaked in the rich sauce 2️⃣焗豬扒飯Signature baked pork chop rice: 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑 The baked pork is okayish compared to the brisket. It’s not bad with all the red sauce also the rice was not plain but with fried egg 3️⃣黑松露滑蛋多士Truffle with smooth scrabble eggs on toast: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 This was on the daily special menu and we didn’t realized it also comes with a drink so we ended w 3 drinks LOL anyway the eggs are sooo soft and great with truffle.

📍Yan’s Kitchen 近水江南 My new fav home food restaurant in GTA!!! It’s so elegant in every way: the name, the interior design, even the bowls and plates. 1️⃣ Pan fried crabs with rice cake 蟹炒年糕: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 IMO this is the must-try dish here, fresh crabs in rich flavour, very authentic and well represents the cuisine 2️⃣ Soochow style duck marinated in picked sauce 苏式糟鸭: 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 I don’t really have any opinion on authenticity of this one since I’ve never had this before in 🇨🇳. Overall it tastes good, a little too salty for me. 3️⃣ Pan fried Bao 苏式生煎包: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 A bit different from shanghai style, the overall texture is softer; still pretty good 4️⃣ Sweetened rice with red bean stuffing 八宝饭: 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 Traditional dessert in Shanghai/Soochow, pretty authentic and tasty 5️⃣ Stir- fried asparagus lettuce 清炒莴苣: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 Very fresh and crunch, make it well balanced with other rich flavoured dishes 💁Environment and service: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕 🍽Food presentation: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 💰Price: 💵💵 🤔Revisit? 🙋 can’t wait to go back!! #ricecakes #panfriedbao #shanghaifood #soochow #chinesefoods #chinesefoodporn #chinesefoodlover #torontofoodblog #torontofoodphotos #toptorontoresturants #yelptoronto #asianfoodie #foodreviews #yyzfood #torontoresturants #cravethe6ix #tofood #tofoodie #toeats #foodtoronto #torontofoodies #tofood #to_finest #foodtoronto #yyzeats #narcitytoronro #torontofood #blogto #torontoeats #tastetoronto (at Richmond Hill, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2OsJVYhaVS/?igshid=caf8opf4rear

📍Ichiran Ramen One of our requested places during this NYC trip and took by the local @hachiozhang 😆 Lined up for around 15 mins and got four consecutive seats. As some of you may know, customers here are seated individually and separated by wooden boards to minimize the human contact including with the servers. 1️⃣Tonkotsu Ramen: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 It’s my first visit at Ichiran so I got the recommended set with 1/2 red sauce and don’t need to worry about preferences of anything. Otherwise you could choose how you want everything to be done, such as how soft you want the noodle and how rich you want the broth etc. And this tasted AMAZING!! The broth was really flavoured and also not too salty make you drink tons of water later. The 1/2 red sauce was just right for me: a bit spicy but only tasty spicy which made it even more flavoured instead of deadly spicy. The ramen itself was a bit chewy and soaked with 😋 broth. It’s so tasty that for a small person like me I even asked for KAE-DAMA (NOODLE REFILL). Although the refilled noodle tasted a bit firmer than those came with the broth. 2️⃣Matcha pudding: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 For those who loves matcha, this is your go-to dessert. You could still taste a little bit bitterness of the matcha while enjoying the sweetness of the pudding. The only thing is that it’s a bit pricy for a small pudding to be $8.9usd. 💁Environment and service: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 🍽Food presentation: 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 💰Price: 💵💵💵 🤔Revisit? 🙋 (at Ichiran NY) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxfUpOaB2oM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6bz0yf1s9j1d

📍Eggstatic This is the third restaurant in this neighbourhood I’ve visited/reviewed. (The other two were @fukuisushi and @sophies_to ) And I have to say all of the three are FANTASTIC! Both of us ordered eggs benedict (me got smoked salmon and he got fried chicken) and they were absolutely amazing. I loved how they warmed up the English muffin which made it a little bit crispy. The hollandaise sauce was creamy and tasty 😋 The home fries were great too and the portion was enough for feeding both 👩or👱‍♂️. 💁Environment and service: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 🍽Food presentation: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 💰Price: 💵💵 🤔Revisit? 🙋 (at EGGSTATIC) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw7JlNrhbC5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=186oq7fsg8wa

📍Pearl Diver One of my bestie and I go-to brunch places in town, Pearl Diver has a great brunch menu together with decent seafood choices. Servers are always attentive and lovely 😊 1️⃣House Cured Salmon Gravlax Benedict: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 My all-time favourite, and as you can see it in picture, two of us actually ordered the same thing😂so you know how good it is! 2️⃣Crispy Calamari : 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 Perfect appetizer to share with your friends, it is indeed crispy and tasty 3️⃣Clsssic Breakfast with Polish Sausage: 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 I personally don’t eat any sausage but according to my friend: not bad😉but the toast was a bit hard 4️⃣Organic Yogurt and Fresh Fruit: 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑 To me it basically just looked like a fancier yogurt place than what you could’ve had at home lol but my friend who ordered this said the yogurt tastes pretty good not too sour 5️⃣Oyster from the bar: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 Really fresh oysters from B.C. and Nova Scotia, personally liked the latter better, which is creamier. 💁Environment and service: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 🍽Food presentation: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 💰Price: 💵💵 🤔Revisit? 🙋 (at Pearl Diver) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwOAP2bBxaA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zhx37s51eea

📍Sophie’s It’s Saturday morning!! Who’s craving for some weekend brunches?? This gorgeous brunch place located at midtown has some great dishes you must try!!! 1️⃣Blueberry Pancakes: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕 If I can I wanna give it five and half points... this is absolutely beyond of tasty. Perfect pancakes together with the creamy butter and the natural scent of blueberry, just like having a party on your tongue. 2️⃣Benny with smoked salmon: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 I substituted 🥓 with smoked salmon and it’s also good. Perfectly cooked poached eggs and fresh greens. Oh did I mention the potatoes were special and cant stop to eat? We got there around 230 and still lined up until 3, so be aware it’s a pretty busy place. 💁Environment and service: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 🍽Food presentation: 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 💰Price: 💵💵 🤔Revisit? 🙋 (at Sophie's) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrIbna3BEa2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qoxdzavi2utq

📍Kome Shokudo Home kitchen style Japanese food. Just as the board outside says “Japanese Comfort Food”. The service there was really great and I have to say high CP value👍 1️⃣Gyudon with hot spring egg: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 Can never go wrong with gyudon, especially with extra hot spring egg. Very flavoured and satisfying, just a bit salty for me. Size can choose from regular, large and jumbo 2️⃣Chicken Karage: 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 Juicy fried chicken in Japanese style, my all-time fav😋just one thing, there were few pieces only with chicken skin inside which I personally don’t like it. 3️⃣Gyudon with Shirataki and veges: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 Somehow didn’t look as good as regular gyudon but healthier? LOL Imo it’d be a great place for kids, or if you are in a rush and just want a quick grab. 💁Environment and service: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 🍽Food presentation: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 💰Price: 💵 🤔Revisit? 🙋 (at Kome Shokudo) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq54kubhcWT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wqhdai4kxlbr

📍Fukui Sushi Never really explored anything in midtown. Didn’t expect such goodies here. The restaurant doesn’t have many tables and is actually a bit crowded and noisy during dinner time. The waiter/manager with us was really nice and patient. He carefully introduced us with his recommendation dishes and even send some fresh fish soup on the house. 1️⃣Fish soup $10.95 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 Really flavourful and umami with the cabbages and seaweed. The tofu soaked with the soup tasted really good too. 2️⃣Spicy salmon flash $10.95 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 3️⃣Omakase 12pcs $50 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 Really fresh seasonal sashimi, a wide selection from 🐟 to 🦐 to 🐚 personally I think this is a very economic choice of omakase 4️⃣Sashimi dinner platter $19 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 Regular selection sashimi including salmon and tuna 5️⃣Sashimi a la carte 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 We also ordered sweet shrimp and sea urchin on the side. Both were fresh and well presented 6️⃣Handmade undo (hot) $9 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 A recommendation from the waiter and it’s really worth trying👌very chewy noodle with umami soup 7️⃣(Some kind of sashimi slices with citron sauce)🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 Also recommended by the waiter. Tasted not bad but not memorable too 8️⃣(Some kind of special roll)🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 Another carb item of the night, a lot of ingredients and rich flavoured.

Day 2 in Taipei - Noodle Soup Day!! We tried two different kinds of beef noodle soups that are both really popular in Taipei. One is called 永康 Yongkang and the other other is 林東芳 Lindongfang. They were actually very distinct from each other but both 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌕 good: 永康 was more spiced and the beef was in chunk while 林東芳’s soup was more unami and the beef was in thick slices. The braised pork rice in 金峰滷肉飯 was so far the best one I’ve ever tried. Not so oily but really flavoured. We also tried 麻油雞麵線 chicken noodles with sesame oil in 永康錄 and also the most famous one called 阿宗麵線. I liked the former one better as the soup was rich in flavour and the chicken was tender. Last but not least, the 蜜芋麻糬燒 mochi with taro snow ice from 來呷甜甜品 was totally awesome!! It’s like an enjoyment when you try to have the warm mochi with snow ice at the same time. I 💕 Taipei even more. (at Taipei, Taiwan) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm7JlHvAKu2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q4jjsunrxh87

First meal in Taipei!!! Came to this famous Taiwanese restaurant near our hotel. 1️⃣白斬雞Steamed chicken was awesome, meat was really tender with transparent jelly and flavoured when you dip it into soy sauce with fresh red chilli. 2️⃣We got disappointed with 鹽酥小捲Fried Squid, it’s a bit over cooked and too chewy 3️⃣My first time ever try this vege called 水蓮 , very juicy and herbal 4️⃣紅燒豆腐 Fried tofu was a bit sour? Idk if this is normal but still, not bad Overall, great restaurant to start with😆 (at 茂園台菜餐廳) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bm3G95cgfsX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gim8erpo8062

📍Aburi Room Great indoor design, very bright and pretty. Waiters were friendly and food looked really insta-worthy. Personally I think it’s a perfect place for either a date or a girls’ night out😉 1️⃣Aburi Premium $32: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 This one, as well as the Aburi plate, is one of the three dinner tasting menus(each for 1 serving). 🐟 🦐 were really fresh and I liked the crab handroll. Imo this one is more value worthy than the Aburi plate. 2️⃣The Aburi Plate $52: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 If you like oshi sushi, you should try this tasting menu as it has more oshi sushi than others. 3️⃣Ebi Oshi $12:🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 We asked the waiter for recommendations on any of the oshi sushi platters, and she recommended this. Amazing taste, warm, flavoured, also not too oily. 4️⃣Chirashi Tart $15: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 One of the most impressive dishes we tried here. Pretty looking with the perfectly balanced sauce on a variety choice of 🐟 🥑 , eating it was just an enjoyment. 💁Environment and service: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 🍽Food presentation: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 💰Price: 💵💵💵 🤔Revisit? 🙋 #torchedsushi #sushi #japanese #blog_TO #food #eatwhatyoufeel #hungrydaisy #torontofood #torontoeats #toronto #yyzeats #foodgasm #asianfoodie #foodlife #feedmyphone #torontofoodie #foodie #foodblog #foodporn #foodphotography #foodstagram #foodpics #foodlover #igfood #igfoodie (at Aburi Room)

📍Mistura @mistura_sopra Summerlicious is coming up! Which restaurant are you going this year? 😉 This above was one of my great dining experience during last winterlicious. The restaurant was cozy, waiters were so friendly, and they even heated the outside door handle on a snowy winter day. 1️⃣House-made spaghetti with oxtail ragu: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 The chewy spaghetti, together with the rich flavoured oxtail, took a bit time to enjoy this delicious dish. 2️⃣Broken pasta bean soup: 🌕🌕🌑🌑🌑 Maybe it's personal, but this soup kinda reminds me of my unpleasant college cafeteria😳 3️⃣Slow braised beef:🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑 Well cooked beef, that I could feel it's "melting" once you put it in the mouth. But my friends felt it got plain when he tried to finish the whole plate. 4️⃣Double Stacked Orata Filet: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 The filet was perfectly cooked, with crispy skin and soft inside. Meanwhile that sour-tasted beans made the fish even more interesting when you eat them together. 5️⃣Mistura tiramisu: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 I liked the crunchy topping with the smooth cream. Pretty big portion for a desert, felt bad that I couldn't finish it all. 6️⃣Créam brûlée: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 Classy desserts that almost never go wrong. 💁Environment and service: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗 🍽Food presentation: 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑 💰Price: 💵💵💵💵 🤔Revisit? 🙋 (at Mistura Restaurant & Sopra Upper Lounge)
