We discovered a terrific Chinese Hotpot place today. Located between Steels and Warden (Toronto street names), there's this excellent place that serves dim sums during the day and hotpot buffet for dinner! You get to pick whatever soup base you want out of their wide selection including seafood, chicken, mushroom, lobster, vegetarian, etc. They also have this HUGE selection of food you can pick for hotpot.
Let's see…I was amazed by the variety this restaurant was able to provide, this is a short list of things I can remember right off hand:
-Fish balls (at least four or five types, including Japanese fried ones, the ones with a mixture of shrimp and other fish nuggets)
-Meat (tons of shreded meat, this is your must have ingredient for hotpot)
-Veggies (lots and lots)
-This tiny bird egg…ahh…quail egg?
-Japanese fish paste
-Tofu (both frozen and fresh)
Oh oh, another bonus for going to this restaurant is that it's located right inside this Asian plaza with a huge T&T supermarket. If you don't know what T&T is, check out the "Where to find Asian Supermarket" page.
If you live in Toronto, love Chinese food, love hot pot, then go try it out! HOT FOOD ~ PERFECT FOR THIS FREEZING COLD CANADIAN WEATHER!
Price: on week days, it's $15.99 per person, they also include a 10% service charge in the final bill. I believe it's a dollar or two more expensive on the weekends and holidays.
Time: They open at 10 am for dim sum, dinner runs from 4pm to midnight.
Language: MANDARIN. All servers speak Mandarin (restaurant people usually speak Cantonese here in Toronto). I like them.
My final rating: 5/5~
