  • I imagine ordering at Asian Legend for the first time is kind of like casting out a fishing net and seeing what you get... They do some of the pseudo Chinese dishes though it's not their specialty, so if you're looking for Chicken w Cashews, Fried Rice, Sweet & Sour, etc, you may not be impressed. But they do some "Northern" Chinese dishes consistently well which is hard to find in the city, even one as multicultural as Toronto. I say "Northern" Chinese but to me this type of food has always just been Chinese food but with so many different styles of Chinese food I guess they've had to define it as "Northern". Northern in this case I assume refers to Beijing though they have a wide selection of traditional Chinese dishes. Now I'll be honest, I've had better food in Asia and if you're a purist then I'm afraid you'll not find a adequate substitute here but I've taken many people here from all cultures and they've always been happy with the food. Plus they're one of the cleaner places in Chinatown which helps if you're entertaining and it's a fun place to bring larger groups and eat family style affordably. Tables of 10 welcome! If you're looking for things to order here are my recommendations in order of amazingness: Steamed pork soup dumplings (we usually come here just for this dish) Rolled Onion Pancake with Sliced Beef Sauteed Green Beans with Dried Shrimp (but I always ask for garlic instead of dried shrimp, I think they've actually changed it to garlic but haven't updated the menu) Stir Fried Ho Fun w Beef Moo Shu Chicken Shredded Pork w Sweet Peking Sauce Fried Tofu And they do a decent peking duck which is always fun if you're with larger groups. These are super safe dishes for those who are new to Chinese food. I'd imagine that if you're not, you'll probably know what to order on your own. I've just realized that I usually go with non-Chinese people so I've actually not tried some of my favourite Chinese dishes like Dong Po Pork, Shredded Chicken w Noodles, Beef Noodle Soup, and Braised or Sauteed Eggplant. I'll have to make a point to try them next time and update accordingly... stay tuned...
