| - the essence of cantonese stir-fry is to have a high heat wok, enough amount of oil, quick stir till food's cooked, served steaming hot. we call it "wok hei" in cantonese.
yeap, this place has very good food. naturally, the line is very long too. and it seems like it's a toronto-chinese culture to make reservations for everyday dinner. that said, no "reservation" would guarantee seating at the appointed time--you're just telling them you MAY be arriving and they will TRY to get you a table as soon as possible. can't blame the restaurants, as many patrons don't take their reservations seriously and often abuse the system (ex. reserve in multiple places, don't call to cancel in case of skipping out, etc.). yeah, chinese courtesy in a nutshell.
that aside, food is great and totally worth returning. the hardest part really is getting a spot for your car outside AND for yourself inside.
