| - Another hidden gem in Markham and this place is REALLY hidden. Tucked right in between two plazas within the same plaza where Marathon milk tea shop and Inaho Japanese restaurant are. At first I thought this was a Hakka food place, but after stepping in, it's actually an Indian Chinese restaurant (or do they mean the same thing?!!). Either way it doesn't matter because this place serve great food at VERY good prices!
They have a decent selection of Daily Specials which is around $6.99 before tax and it comes with rice and your choice of side, a spring roll and a soup or a drink. On top of the very good prices, the food portion is HUGE, which is perfect for one person! $6.99 with such large portion, you cannot go wrong.
A group of 3, we ordered the Green Curry Chicken Rice, Red Curry Chicken Rice and as per the owner's recommendation, Chili Chicken Rice and a plate of Pakoras to share. The Green Curry Chicken was great, just about right in terms of spiciness and great curry flavour. The Red Curry has very strong Coconut flavour which I was not a big fan off, but taste wise it is still very decent because of the great tasting chicken. Chili Chicken is by far the best rice dish out of the three, great sauce with nicely fried chicken meat on rice! White rice needs a lot of sauce and this was perfect!
The best of all is the Pakoras!! I tried it at a friend's wedding last year and I enjoyed it, so when I noticed they serve them here, I order one plate as well. It has around 10 Pakoras and they are fried to perfection!!! Great spiciness, flavour and fried texture, the Chicken Pakoras was fried so well it tasted like Popeye's fried chicken!!
I really enjoyed my time here and highly recommend anyone to go here for a quick, cheap and decent meal!!
