  • Lychee Bay serves a dish called "Dragon, tiger, and phoenix". When I came here for dinner with my family, we spent some time guessing what food they use as the dragon, the tiger, and the phoenix. My dad was reasonably sure that the dragon is snake and the phoenix is chicken, but could the tiger really be cat?! I mean, I know several Asian cultures eat it, but that's just back in Asia, right?? So my dad asked the waiter what the "tiger" was, and the waiter told him it was rabbit. As we sat there looking relieved that we were wrong about people actually wanting to eat cats, the waiter told us, "We have to use rabbit because they don't have cat in Canada". Thank goodness for Canadian food laws is all I have to say. We didn't order the dragon, tiger, and pheonix dish (it costs $69!!), but all the dishes we did order were really tasty. Everything was well made and not too salty or greasy. The presentation of certain dishes were quite interesting and gave them a little extra flair over the typical cheapo Chinese restaurant. The steamed fish comes cut into smaller pieces and laid out very nicely, and I saw one table that ordered a lobster dish that looked amazing. The chunks of lobster were battered and fried, and served in a mound with a huge lobster head/carapace displayed on the mound. The prices are on par with other mid-range Chinese restaurants. Not exactly cheap but not considered an expensive restaurant either. Just a good solid place for dinner. My only complaint is that this restaurant suffers from the common syndrome of having dishes posted around the wall in Chinese writing only, which don't appear on the main menu - the one with English translations. Then again, the "Dragon, tiger, phoenix" was one of these dishes...so maybe I can understand why. It probably is better to go here with someone who speaks Chinese, as the staff didn't seem to be able to communicate in English.
