The Dim Sum at Yang's Chinese Cuisine excites me in a way that is unnatural for Dim Sum to excite a healthy man of my age and "maturity." Yelp GTA Chinese cuisine aficionados Jen K and Wayne C introduced a group of us to the magic that is their $3/item (any size) weekday special (which you must take advantage of before 11AM).
And take advantage we most certainly did!
At first I wasn't too sure about this place, it's basically a really nice looking banquet hall packed with circle tables with one wall lined with tanks for the live crabs and lobsters. It's located in what I think used to be part of Le Parc Banquet hall located just south of Hwy 7 and Leslie in the Markham portion of Thornhill. Le Parc still remains to the right, but Yang's is attached, so be on the look out for both of their signs.
Agreeing with my Singaporean brother from another mother (David L), the standout dishes were DEFINITELY the Har Gow, Sui Mai and the Steamed Chicken Feet with Supreme Sauce - Ya I eat chicken feet, they're gnarly (in a good way).
There were so many dishes that I wish I could remember all the names for BUT, the one constant between all dishes was that the quality was unmatched. Portions of shrimp were abundant, the size of dumplings were easily double many others I've had and even small things like the quality of the flaky pastry used to make several baked items were bakery quality. I noticed this right away.
The bad reviews for this place revolve around their pricy dinner options which can run between $50-80/person, but this isn't an issue if you've got the extra scratch to spare. In terms of Dim Sum, this was easily a top 3 I've ever had in my honest opinion!
Dim Sum Special is CASH ONLY (I was unprepared).
Eatcrest Out!
