Got number 114 Tofu, chicken, dried fish with rice for 13.50$.
It was tasteless, I tried to put Soja & Sriracha on it but I just couldn't finish it. Prices are low & service is quick though.
What an amazing meal this was!! We got the smallest combo there was which included a soup, steamed salted chicken, stir fry beef with bok choy, steamed fish, sweet & sour pork, & white rice. My favourite was the steamed salted chicken - really brought me home for a moment.
All this we got for an incredible value of around $70, though if you want to pay with cash you have to let the server know beforehand. We learnt it the hard way when we asked at the register post meal.
In hindsight, we probably should not have gotten this combo as a party of two as the portion sizes are very large & we definitely struggled to finish everything. As a party of two, definitely just order à la carte as it will be easier on the wallet as well.
Favourite thing is that they serve complimentary taro sago dessert to end the dinner!! Overall a wonderful meal & is definitely going to be one I think about once in a while.
Really good Cantonese food. Get 185 beef stew in hot pot! It comes with bok choy. It's beef brisket in a rich beefy sauce.
I asked about allergens in Chinese & the server sort of indicated non-verbally none of the dishes I ordered contained peanuts.
However, I recommend you be extra cautious here if you have allergies. The dishes I ordered are ones I am familiar with so I didn't expect there to be peanuts anyway & asked as an extra precaution.
Servers gave us ample time to go over the menu & when I was ready I just made eye contact & they came over. I sat close to the cash.
I showed the server images of photos of the food I wanted & he understood. Bill was very reasonable & food came fast! They kindly packaged my food for me to go home & I went up to the cash to pay by visa. :)
42. Scallop ($10 per scallop with vermicelli) - tasty! I don't think there is butter but it's delicious. The vermicelli is so garlicky but light. Tender scallops.🤤
166. Green beans - ok…I've had better
185. Beef stew in hit pot (Ngau lam Bo)- ❤? absolutely delicious. A few bits of melted, almost jello-like beef tendon. Sits on a bed of bok choy. I will return just for this dish.
267. seafood congee - one size, big bowl. gingery, contains squid, shrimp.
262. small rice - heaping bowl

Our group of trio had the 4 person dinner with came with a plate of chicken, beef & veggie, deep fried fish, & sweet & sour pork. A big bowl of soup & rice were also included, but alas, no red bean soup for dessert. Excellent value & good tasting Cantonese style food for less than $70!
They have the best fried rice I've ever had. Their other dishes such as general tao chicken, stuffed tofu or orange beef are also good, but the seafood fried rice is truly the star.
However, they use disposable plastic table cloth, which produces a lot of plastic waste.
I was in Montreal for work & got takeout from here after a long day. I got the stuffed shrimp with tofu, green peppers & eggplant with rice & it was delicious. Serving size was great & it lasted a couple meals. I also got the pork & century egg congee for breakfast the next day - also delicious with lots of pork & egg. I'm Cantonese/Toishanese & have been eating these dishes throughout my life - & these were great here. Highly recommend this place!
I heard lot of good things from this place but unfortunately the average price are around 25$ & the rice is freaking 10$. This is not worth it. Me & my partner took 2 dishes & 2 rice bowl which ended up being 78$. The price isn't but the quantity is. So much better spot than this! the food was not even good
