| - This restaurant known as Man Lee Jang Sung (translated as the Great Wall) is super popular among Koreans. I was here on a Sunday evening and we had to wait about twenty minutes before being seated. Throughout our meal and as we were leaving the restaurant, people kept coming in and waiting in line. Maybe the restaurant could invest in expanding its business. They normally do not take reservations for dinner but I heard you can make a dinner reservation if it is made a week in advance.
We had sweet and sour pork (tang su yook), kan-poong shrimp, spicy seafood noodle soup (jam-bong), black bean noodles (jajangmyun) and hot pepper glass noodles (gochu japchae) which comes with white and soft buns. Sweet and sour pork, kan-poong shrimp and hot pepper glass noodles dishes were amazing. Their sauce on sweet and sour pork was different from the usual sour kind. It was darker in colour as well. The sauce used in kan-poong shrimp tasted similar to ones used in Korean spicy fried chicken, yum. I didn't like their jajangmyun as much, because the black bean sauce tasted a little too strong. I prefer the sweeter and softer taste of jajangmyun from places like SongCook.
The food here is by far, the best Korean Chinese food Toronto can offer. I've had better Korean Chinese cuisine elsewhere, but in Toronto, sadly, this restaurant seems to be as good as it gets.
