I finally made it to the original Lucky Lin's (on Finch)! A friend of mine has been raving out this…read moreplace for years, so I had to try their Guyanese Chinese cuisine since I was in the area. I ordered their Fried Chicken Leg on Top, served with Fried Rice for only CDN$9.00 on their Lunch Menu. Even though I was dining in, it was served in a takeout container that was packed full of food. It was heavy! Opening the box revealed a ton of food, packed to almost overflowing. This was not a case of them using a small box. It was packed! After being impressed with the portion size, especially for the price, I have to say I was a bit disappointed with the flavour. The chicken was fine but the fried rice was just kinda blah. It had no "wok hei". It needed a much hotter wok. It wasn't terrible but it definitely wasn't good. The ambiance is simple and sparse, with bare walls and minimal decor. It looks like it may have been a bit more posh at one time. At least it was clean and bright.

All the Hakka favorites are represented including the chili chicken, indo-chinese style fried rice, crispy beef and the others. The fried rice is pretty good and flavorful. I tried the ginger crispy chicken and while there was definitely the essence of ginger, the honey sweet sauce that coated it was a bit too cloying for my taste, and had to balance it with some chili sauce. Very generous portions for sure, and family run.

I was disappointed by the egg drop soup. It was bland and just lumpy eggs in water. The shrimp noodles was good, but nothing special. You can get this dish at any Chinese restaurant in a food court.

And as always, with the promise of great portions and tasty food , Hakka was the obvious choice. We went here as it was the closest to us and we're really pleased with the decision. There were only two tables filled in the restaurant which worried us a little on terms of the food quality but competing with thousands of other food venues in the area makes up for it. The service was really friendly and all the staff were more than happy to help. We ordered the veg hakka chow mein, crispy beef, sweet and sour chicken and fried rice with all the additions as well as some spring rolls. Everything was full of flavour, really tasty and left us content. The only thing that lacked in flavour was the spring rolls, they tasted a little over fried and were very oily. Crispy beef was definitely the highlight!

Even the hot and sour soup tasted like we got it at a grocery store. Dining tip...if the options are "dry or with gravy" go for dry! The "gravy" is just corn starch goop squeezed out of a pouch. There is no discernible seasoning or combining of flavors. The ginger beef was more like grey truck stop roast beef dinner. We felt gross after eating. All 3 dishes get the same review. If you are looking for super bland and unchallenging Hakka, this is the place.
