[Markham] Fung Lam Court Chinese Restaurant – dinner review

I’m not really a fan of eating Chinese food in restaurants because I enjoy homemade Chinese food a lot more. But than having dinners with family – I don’t really have a say to where to go. This is my first time at Fung Lam Court Chinese Restaurant. To my surprise – the food is pretty good here. A bit on the pricier side but it’s decent food.

We went on a weekday – so the restaurant wasn’t busy at all – maximum of 10 tables that night. The servers were attentive and they kept changing our plates to a new one. It was like a 8 dish meal we ordered. Quite a lot of food for seven people eh? We always over-order and end up packing 1/4 of the food home.

Two lobster & a fresh fish

My favorite part is the dessert part! You don’t see this a lot in Chinese restaurant! We get to pick from a couple of desserts they have! Usually restaurants have either red bean soup or green bean soup! Look at what they offer here! Sesame, Pecan, and Peanut Paste! It was delicious! My favorite part of dinner! Dinner with tax and tips cost $180.00. A bit on the pricier side but it’s worth it. I do want to come back and try their dim sum.

[Markham] Royal Teahouse 君皇茶坊 – Dinner Review

Been here many times before and food here is average to me. All Chinese food is average to me – might be because I grew up having them all the time.

We ordered way too much food for four people. We had ‘the seafood’ – does anyone know what it is called? Sweet Sour Pork, Fresh Fish, Veg, Peking Duck, and the left over of Peking Duck with lettuce. Total of six dishes for four!

My favorite was the peking duck – it was fresh and a lot of meat. I don’t have them often – so I do kind of miss it. What’s your favorite at this restaurant? Any recommendations? Care to Share?

[Scarborough] Onion Steak & Seafood

Been to Onion Steak & Seafood for the third time. Not a fan of this place – the food is just very “not good” – well to me – it’s just normal. I really didn’t know what to eat here when I know were coming here. I don’t like any of their buffet selections at all. Very blend and tasteless. Good thing was – I wasn’t too hungry to start off with. So I just nibble some of their food. Didn’t eat a lot – just some.

Here’s what Hubby and I had. Not a lot to chose from at all.

Our other family members ordered sizzling plate with their meal.

Here’s the dessert we had.

I don’t recommend this place at all. Also – the buffet price raised a bit – so look out for that!

[Scarborough] Yogi Noodles

 

I’ve been to Yogo Noodles many many times and they never fail to satisfy me – even with their simplest dish. I ordered just the rice noodle “Chern Fun” this time because I wasn’t hungry enough to eat a full meal. It was simple and yet not too much food for me. Hubby ordered his all time favorite – Baked Cream Sauce on Seafood with Spaghetti. See how much seafood there were? It was a quick dinner – everything came so fast.

[Scarborough] Yogi Noodles — Inexpensive & Delicious Food

Yogi Noodle is one of my all-time-favorite. I love their food and not only is their food good – they are pretty inexpensive. This spaghetti bolognese cost $5.99 and it came with a drink too. It’s not only lunch – it’s all day long. Yogi Noodles has two locations. Scarborough location: Warden Avenue & Steeles Avenue. Richmond Hill location: Easter Beaver Creek & Highway 7.

This is what my husband ordered. His all time favorite at this restaurant – Baked Cream Sauce with Ham & Chicken Spaghetti. For $6.99 it came with a drink also.

This is what my brother-in-law ordered. Not sure about the price but it was a big bowl of noodles with lots of dumplings and veggie. Looks like a really yummy and healthy meal for sure. I highly recommend this restaurant. Not because it’s inexpensive but the food is very very tasty!

[Scarborough] Asian Legend at Sheppred & Brimley Ave ;; Restaurant & Food Review

Asian Legend has been around for a good 4-5 years now. I’m really surprised this restaurant lasted for this long – not because their food isn’t good but if you live in Scarborough/Markham area – restaurants don’t last that long. They change names a lot. So that was why I was surprised because it’s been a good 4-5 years!

The food in this restaurant is pretty good – more on the spicier side. Well at least that was what we had that night. 3/5 of the dishes were quite spicy. I guess for those that love spice – this is definitely a restaurant you should go!

This is the Stir Fry Eggplant – pretty good!! I love the sauce and it’s very tasty.

Forgot what this is called but it was a little blend to me. Not as tasty as the eggplants!

Pineapple Chicken Fried Rice

Not sure what this is called either. But darn – it was SPICY!

Kung Po Chicken! One of my favorite dish that night!

Fried Shanghai Noodles

Overall – dinner wasn’t so bad. A bit on the spicy side but I could handle it. About $13 per person for 6 plates of food + 3 bowl of rice for 6 people. We were pretty full too.

[Markham] Leve Up ;; Afternoon Tea Specials

Another afternoon tea at Level Up – we basically order the same thing. Yep – we can’t resist their yummy food!

Instead of the Chicken Salad Sandwich – I ordered the Tuna Salad this time. I love it! $4.99

As always – his all time favorite. Baked Spaghetti in ham and mushroom cream sauce. $5.99

Ordered chicken wings to share at $5.99

Our munchkin just sat there and watch us enjoy our afternoon tea. He was well behaved too! I couldn’t ask for a more well behaved child. Well – he’s only good sometimes and not all. I’m sure when he can eat – he’ll be fighting over for the chicken wings.

[Scarborough] New Northern Dumpling House ;; Dumpling Review

I’m a dumpling girl and with a tray of good dumplings – I can have it every day! New Northern is now my favorite place to have dumplings. I can eat non-stop when I see these. My favorite is the leak and pork dumpling. What I love about them in this restaurant is they make it fresh and on the spot. It never disappoints and I love the freshness of every bite of it. It’s delicious and trust me – you all gotta try them out!
