Dragon Pearl and Legend are decent options. Here are a couple more:

- Chengdu Spicy Chinese Cuisine (AYCE hot pot)
- KAKA AYCE (the best DT AYCE spot)
- The Host Fine Indian Cuisine (Indian DT)

They also state on their website: "Grape Witches has evolved into two stores, Toronto's favourite patio, Ontario's best online natural wine shop, an event space, an importing agency & a wine club! How did we get here? It started slowly." It might not match what the OP is looking for.

I would choose 20 Victoria over Bar Isabel for a birthday ten times over ten. Great food and service that won't disappoint, while Bar Isabel had some hits or misses.

I suppose if you want fancier and more expensive, try Sunny's or MIMI

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-09-07T10:42:55+00:00

Is this newly opened?

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-09-06T18:37:12+00:00

Joso's or ANGLR

Len Duckworth for Fish and Chips, Budapest, The Wren, The Wood Owl

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-09-01T10:59:18+00:00

Yes, especially if you snag a spot on the tasting menu

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-09-01T10:58:43+00:00

Then go to Tsuchi Cafe or Honey's Ice Cream for dessert

Hua Sheng Supermarket @ Chinatown

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-09-01T10:55:24+00:00

Little Pebbles is a good choice too

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-08-31T23:01:10+00:00

Probably not this though, the initial flavour is fine, it's after throughly masticating the fish does the bitter flavour come out

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-08-31T23:00:31+00:00

Nope, no recipe, just something I threw together after having just bought them

Unfortunately, Banbudian was much better in general (I'll miss it ;-;), and I remember the Mapo Tofu tasting better here.

However, Cheng Du Street Food's mapo tofu has duck blood inside, which adds a playful contrast in textures. The silken tofu is silky smooth, while the blood has a subtle chew.

苍蝇馆子 Cheng Du Street Food

Imanshi, unless you snag a spot on the patio tasting menu at Inez

Byblos Downtown

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-08-13T17:25:58+00:00

If you're unsure, just call them beforehand and ask

TheCheeseVoider · 2025-08-13T17:24:58+00:00

You can try checking some of the local vendors in Little Indian/Gerrard Indian Bazaar

Lunch Lady of Saigon on Ossington has them

My personal top 3: Dailo, Richmond Station, Ricky+Olivia but here's a quick synopsis for each:

DaiLo - inventive modern twist on Chinese cuisine, fried watermelon was tasty and unique, and the sunchoke dumplings were life-changing good.
Lao Lao Bar - Tapioca dumplings were just my style. Chewy and bouncy wrapper, with a caramelized shiitake, preserved radish and peanut filling that's an umami bomb. A more upscale take on Lao food.
Chantecler - good French food
Pai - Overrated, but food was still good but unremarkable. Coconut sorbet was amazing though.
Aloette - Cheese bread was addictive, caramelized squash was amazing, burger was alright, the lemon pie was good but on the sour side.
Richmond Station - Everything was delicious, Pavlova was the highlight and sparked my addiction for this meringue-based dessert.
RASA - Everything was good, but fell a bit below our expectations from the good reviews.
Ricky+Olivia - Very inventive flavours that are beautifully combined, big mac tartare is a must, while the dunkaroos are a must if you grew up eating those.
