Newly opened next to Cafestra and Starwalk, this BRANCH has a whole new look even from the outside logo and signs. Due to being open recently, they have a 10% discount promotion going for a limited time.
The decor walking in is very ELEGANT and sets the mood that is a far cry from the original restaurant near Sheppard and Birchmount. The menu items of North Chinese/Muslim Halal are the same as the original which is exactly what makes me HAPPY.
Xian Lamb Soup Pancake($6.99) is a dough cut into small dice cubes served with Lamb, Glass Noodles in a lamb soup stock.
BBQ Lamb Skewer(1/$1.99) is Cumin spiced not overwhelmingly like others but enough to have you tasting it through-out your meal. Perfectly tender when eaten fresh.
Lamb Hand-made Noodles($6.99) not to be taken as Hand-pulled Noodles, it also comes with tender tasty Lamb chunks, Glass Noodles, Bean Curd Julienne, Seaweed Julienne in Lamb Stock.
A highlight of this meal I would say was the Sweet Sour Fish($8.99) which is definitely worth it's value and great presentation as this dish usually requires. We could taste that the flour batter was salted and seasoned nicely as a savoury dish.
The most noticeable difference is probably the decor and OPERATIONS of this place in comparison to the original. It caters to a different demographics due to its geography. It is also because of this reason that I noticed the dishes are a bit less OILY and SALTY as the main restaurant.
