| - Came in on Sunday night at 8pm. Dinner rush is over and restaurant wasn't very busy, with half of the restaurant occupied. Restaurant is in a small strip mall and looks to be the only restaurant/eatery here. Since other businesses were closed, the area is super quiet and there's plenty of parking spots.
The Hainanese chicken rice sounded like a must try according to other Yelpers so I ordered that. Husband also ordered baked chicken rice with white sauce and walnuts.
The baked rice is your average dish from any Cha Chan Tang. The sauce wasn't too heavy tasting which is good. I wouldn't mind if they put more sauce though.
This rice was part of a meal that included drink and we got hot yin yeung, which was quite good and smooth.
The Hainanese chicken rice is definitely quite good. The best I've come across in Toronto so far. Chicken is extremely tender, smooth, flavorful and the portion was fair. I love that the bones have been removed. The soup and rice is quite tasty too. Well deserved reputation for this dish.
The menu book is really big, like any Cha Chan Tang I suppose. Took me a while to go through and decide :) List of options from breakfast, lunch, tea time and dinner and combos and desserts, all in this one big book. Good thing there are lots of pictures to help.
Servers were mostly young kids in their late teen, early 20s and did their job putting the food on the table, but didn't show much enthusiasm or provide warm friendly service to customers e.g. make eye contact, smile, take your order in a cheerful tone. Just noticed this from observing how other customers were serviced nearby. I got who I believe could be a supervisor or manager to take my order and her tone was better. But I know, I'm eating at a Cha Chan Tang so as long as my food comes right and quick and the servers are not rude, then I'm satisfied :)
I also got seated around the corner from where they dump the dirty dishes in the back and hearing loud dishes crashing into bins while dining was a bit distracting.
The restaurant had 2 big TV screens on the opposite end of the walls but seem like they only used it to showcase pictures of their dishes. Would be nice to show something more entertaining :)
Overall, I would come back to try the other items in their big big menu :)
Forgot to mention, they've written 10% off at the bottom of the receipt, ripped it off and told me that I would get that discount next time if I show that stub. I assume every table got the same offer.
