Lai Wah Heen is expensive. you pay mostly for the atmosphere rather than the food. if you insist on paying that much for food then i would recommend going to Emperor in richmond hill. their food is much better.
my favourite is Ginger & Onion at market village in markham (rated #6 in that list). they still push the traditional dim sum carts around so you can see your food before you order. the prices are VERY reasonable. i was there yesterday for lunch with one of my friends and the total for both of us was only $16.
ruby (not sure if its still around but its at woodside square in scarborough) used to be really good but has gone downhill over the years. i think the original chefs left or something along those lines. my grandfather, who lives two blocks away, used to frequent this place on a daily basis but no longer goes there because it just isnt as good any more.
one thing i do agree with the writer of this article is the best chinese food is found north of downtown toronto in the suburbs. if i want a good chinese meal i refuse to go downtown. if i want something quick and full of MSG then i will go to chinatown. |

Thanks for the advice! I know you guys say that most of the good places are outside of the city, but this time I'm staying in the city, so I wanted to try to find a place that was within a short walk of the Sheraton on Queen St W.
So any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Also, I think we might be going to Footwork that night, do you suggest that? Or is there something else better going on in the city that night?
I see Guv has Dash, but idk if I really want to go to that. |
