  • I couldn't agree more with the previous reviewer, Justin. Cynthia's is truly a GEM! I live within Cynthia's delivery zone as well, and while the prices are 25%-40% more than you are used to paying for chinese food, Cynthia's dishes are all perfectly prepared using outstanding ingredients. Now, like most of you, I normally eat REAL chinese now, which is either incredibly cheap and cheerful or wildly exotic and will require a second mortgage. Cynthia's is not fusion or this type of authentic Richmond-Hill cantonese, this is the Canadian-ized chinese food of your youth, but MUCH BETTER than even you imagined it could ever be! My first impression of Cynthia's food was that someone hired a 5-star chef to re-create gourmet versions of the cheesy chinese dishes of my youth. Sweet and sour shrimp (prawns) are $12 instead of 7.95, but these are huge shrimp closer in size to a lobster tail than the scrawny things typically found, with a perfect batter and sauce on the side. You want (bean-sprout) chicken chow mein? They serve the most delicious version you've ever had, with so much chicken it's almost too much! Like Lemon Chicken? An unbelievably huge box that must contain two large, whole batter-fried chicken breasts arrive with a wedge of lemon and old-school electric-yellow lemon sauce. Personally, I skip the sauce and squeeze the lemon only, but it's fantastic in that bad-for-you way! How about fried rice? Boring stuff right? Not Cynthia's! This fried rice is so good you won't want to ruin it by letting any sauce get anywhere near it! And I really enjoyed the old-school egg rolls, full of bean sprouts, with those crispy pinched ends. Delicious with their home-made hot mustard (HOT!) or pedestrian plum sauce. Seriously, if you're like me and find that going back to sample the gulty pleasures of your past is always a huge disappointment, and those restaurants you used to love never stand up to your memory of them, check this place out - you'll find that this is one time that you really can "go home" and be impressed with those dishes of your youth.
