Yesterday, I was walking up Yonge Street north and walked pass Little Master, and then after finding that my preferred Japanese eatery was closed on Sunday I decided to return to Little Master and give it a try. Just like the other Yelps mention, it was the funky signage as well as the name that caught my attention and I guess it was a good thing the other store was closed. It's not very spacious inside but it's also not the smallest, it is just right like Goldilocks kept saying.
When I go on my own inside new eatery for the time I like it when it's practical empty because it allows me to take good a look around without seeming like I'm intruding on the patron's dining space.
I already want to try something from here so told the guy who welcomed me that I would order take-out. He gave a menu that looked like a booklet and I sat down and flipped through the pages. There are some tempting dishes on the menu as well as the restaurants own unique features. Also at the back of the menu are the drink features which all looked so refreshing considering how hot it was that day.
Most of the dishes come with a picture and I wanted to try a few dishes but finally settled on the Braised Pork with Rice and the Beef with Black Bean sauce with Rice. I think it took about 10 to 15 minutes for both orders to be cooked, wrapped and brought back to me, it was quick enough.
Both dishes come accompanied with a fried egg which is a now a common feature among alot of Asian style Rice and Meat parings. I definitely liked the braised pork more and the soy sauce stewed potatoes gave the whole dish a nice taste to it. The beef dish could use more black bean to coat each strip of meat. The amount of rice that placed in each take-out container was a hefty amount and given the reasonable price of about $9 for each dish, it was generous amount.
I'll come back here when I crave for Chinese dishes that are different and I hope Little Masters does well with more customers coming to eat there.
