| - This is definitely a bit of a hidden gem here in Scarborough! It's located in this shoddy looking strip plaza, but don't be fooled, because when you go in the place is surprisingly spacious. When I went on a Sunday for lunch with my parents, every single table was full, but customers tend to come in and out pretty quickly so we didn't have to wait very long. Their menu is simple, and if anything I would complain that the selection is kind of lacking... in terms of noodles, they really only have three toppings you can get in your noodles: shrimp wonton, beef brisket, and dace fish ball, which is less so than other places. But prices really can't be beat! It's only $6 for a bowl of noodles if you get one or two toppings, and as other reviewers have noted, the shrimp wontons are soooo big.
Service: Attentive, but if anything maybe too attentive? It was like once we sat down at the table, the waitress was by our side, expectantly waiting for us to order... and we hadn't even really looked at the menu yet. We were talking amongst ourselves, and she kept interjecting to clarify things, which I guess was okay, but then she just kept lurking around, and it made me feel a bit uncomfortable and like we were being pressured to order quickly. I do realize that's just the way they do things though, everything was so quick, quick, quick, and rapid. Our food came out probably less than 5 minutes after we placed our order, and we were sitting right by the kitchen, so we could see them just rapidly filling bowl after bowl with noodles and soup.
Food: Delicious! For some reason my mother found the broth to be salty, but conversely, I thought it was really light in flavour and if anything even too light. But they give you lots of condiments (i.e. hot sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce) that you can add yourself. And again, you definitely get a decent amount of food for your money. I think at first I found my noodles to be a little bit too hard/undercooked, (probably because they were prepared so quickly) but I just soaked them a little longer in my soup and then they were okay.
Overall: Definitely can't beat the price, and great if you just want to grab a (super) quick, no frills meal. It's kind of cafeteria-style in the sense that you can go and grab your own water/tea (free of charge) at this little kitchenette thing they have, and then you pay at the counter when you are done your meal. But you know what, it's efficient, and gets the job done, so no complaints from me!
