| - Literally so disappointed by this restaurant. We missions about 30 min from North York to get here for some Peking duck since it was named one of the best. When we first got there, we were pretty excited since it was pretty clean - surprising for a Chinese restaurant. When we looked at the menu, we found that a lot of traditional Chinese dishes were not present. One of my favourite soups, the corn soup, was not anywhere to be seen. Nor were any noodle dishes like really? No chow mein. In the end we decided on beef and egg soup, Kung pow shrimp, Peking duck - traditional, and the stir fry Chinese broccoli.
In terms of food, it was absolutely horrendous. The beef and egg soup contained so much cilantro that I could not even eat a scoop of it. The Kung pow shrimp was just bad. Had to wash it down with some sprite after. For the Peking duck, we were disappointed to say the least. Especially compared to the Peking Man restaurant that I reviewed before, the portion size was surprisingly small and did not come with many options. There was the bread dough thing with some sauce, green onion and cucumber. Gladly, they did give us some more when we requested it. Now the stir-fry broccoli were the only thing that we could eat. It wasn't very filling but we had to eat something.
Our bill totalled to about $100 for 4 people but it was definitely not worth the trip or the money. If you're looking for a good Peking duck place I'd much rather suggest anywhere else but here.
