| - Finally an HK-styled cafe opened in Aurora!! Marvelous Asian Cuisine replaced what used to be J&S Asian Cuisine (the latter served westernized Chinese food like spring rolls and chicken balls, etc).
Located in the same plaza as Sobeys Extra, TD Bank and Second Cup, this cafe is now one of my go-to dining spots in the neighbourhood.
This place is seriously legit. Food, drinks, and service are very good. I appreciate that the server speaks perfect English... it really helps the previous western clientele, who used to frequent J&S, to easily transition over.
The price is a tad more than I'm used to but the portion is certainly decent. You definitely get the quantity AND the quality.
Just like any HK- styled cafe, you can get your milk tea fix, popular snacks, and meal combos here - the combo comes with a complimentary bowl of soup (cream or veggie) and a choice of a small drink from a selected few on the beverage menu. You can also add a dollar or 2 for upgrades!
I would recommend the Baked Ox Tongue in Tomato sauce on Rice. If you add $1, you can change the rice to fried rice. I also really enjoyed the Basa Fillet with Gravy on hot sizzling plate! Very tasty and the plate keeps the food hot throughout your meal.
I'll definitely be coming back often to satisfy my Chinese food cravings! I hope you will have more specials and deals coming out. I truly think you guys will do very well. Keep up the great work :)
