We ordered the milk bread with house butter and durian butter. If you like durian, you will like the durian butter! We also got the spring rolls which were great.

The pho was also good, it is very similar to Nam's pho if you have already tried their pho. Overall it was pretty solid!

The crème brûlée was pretty good. The short ribs were really good as well, but still the spicy beef is to die for.

There is a lunch menu that is $30.99 but they allow you to choose the dinner menu also $42.99. The dinner menu has a bit more choices for each section eg. Dinner menu has shrimp and veggie tempura where the lunch menu doesn't not have. You order the food via QR code for your phone . The customer service was great, everyone was friendly and explained the process on how to order and portion size. The waitress kept returning to fill up my water. The food was good also, I really enjoyed it. We were there from 12:30 and stayed until 3:15pm. They didn't rush us to leave. With the bill, I appreciated they let us know that tips were included in the total price. I enjoyed my lunch!!

Between the two well-known Chinese BBQ spots in First Markham Place, it was tough to choose, but we…read moreended up going with HKS. Both had long lineups around lunchtime, but I liked that this spot offers the option to pair your meats with either noodles or rice. The duck was meaty and plump, with beautifully glistening skin. The roasted pork was perfectly seasoned, featuring that addictively crisp, crackly skin. The BBQ pork was equally impressive, tender and juicy with a glossy, caramelized exterior that balanced sweet and savory flavors really well. None of the meats felt overly fatty or heavy, and when paired with steamed cabbage and your choice of noodles or rice, it made for a really satisfying meal. The vermicelli noodles were thick and chewy, and they come with a side of broth in addition to the soups. The soup itself was light with a pleasant herbal note. The noodle broth, however, had great chicken flavor but was slightly too salty for my taste, so I ended up diluting it a bit to fully enjoy it.

Located inside the first markham food court…read more The parking can get crazy on weekends so pack your patience and get ready for a hike to work up your appetite. There has been a long debate as to left or right BBQ shop to reign supreme. I find the flavourings of HKS to suite my taste buds more. Not to say Excellent is bad but just not what I was brought up with. To each their own. The combo prices have slowly crept up over the years from the 5.99 two meal combo to the current 9.99 price point I enjoy the BBQ pork and duck as the pork has a nice meat texture with crisp skin along with the duck that is meaty and not too fatty with a nice seasoning to infuse through the meat while roasting. The shop is in a food court and if you are looking for a romantic meal for 2... this may not be your ideal destination. If you are looking for more of a HK hustle and bustle with a side attitude if you take too long to go with your meal, this is the place for you. Do prepared for a long queue to get your meal during the prime weekend times that may be up to 40+ minutes to get your meal

The service was okay after that, not as attentive as they could've been and we had to ask for things a couple times but I understand as they were very packed. Everyone was still very kind regardless. We had the pork belly and boneless short ribs and they were good, nothing too special about it. Personally I think it was more on the expensive end for what it was. They were served with many sides and the cheesy corn was our personal favourite. Their other sides were also alright but again nothing too special. It was a very packed day so it was quite loud in the restaurant and we were almost yelling at each other from across the table, so if anyones looking for a more intimate spot, I'd go elsewhere. But again this is not their fault and is to be expected in larger popular places. It is a drinking spot too so that was the vibe they had with lots of chatter and fun bring had. Overall a decent spot for kbbq and I'd say go here more for the atmosphere more than just the food!

We ordered Pork Belly and Beef Rib Eye Roll, and that was enough for us since each serving of meat is 185g / 6.5oz. The beef eye roll was so tender and juicy. The table BBQ comes with egg, corn cheese, lettuce, 5 side dishes, and soybean stew (we found it too salty). Staff come around frequently if you have any requests/questions. Did you know that Daldongnae has a birthday promotion? (I got a t-shirt.)

To balance it out, we ordered the sauerkraut soup, and it was the perfect palate cleanser light, tangy, and refreshing after all the rich and spicy dishes. Service was fast and efficient, which was appreciated since the place gets busy fast, especially during dinner.
