    Some wonton noodles and Curry fish ball and beef balls
    Joan T.

    As far as food court spots go, this is probably one of my top 3 go to's at the First Markham Place plaza. It's Hong Kong quick meals and snack foods; all your favourites at a decent price. I usually just grab a skewer of curry fish balls and a skewer of curry beef balls. Their sauce has a spicy kick to it that is flavourful and a bit addicting. Be warned, there's tons of oil! But all the yummy HK snack foods usually do. I also decided to grab dinner here one time. Normally I order a soup or something from a near by korean spot and just grab snacks from here, but this time I figured I should try other menu items being offered. Their wonton noodles were alright. The wontons were chewy, but didn't have the bounce that we love so much. The noodles tasted different. I'm not sure if it was the broth or the noodles themselves but it was a nice warm flavour to it. Not too salty and not over done. They just keep it quick and simple. :) I like the lower pricing and good portion. Portions are decent for someone like me that really doesn't eat too much anyway, but for someone who is maybe a person of larger appetite, this will most likely not be enough.

    The sharks fin soup is very similar to authentic HK style imitated sharks fin soup (add the fresh fish paste) The cart noodles take awhile to make but it has lots of variety, and how it tastes really depends on your own taste and what you put it in, it's worth a try! The fish balls, and HK style snacks are good and brings back lots of memories... I always pass by this at the food court, now I always grab something from here.

    Maybe I should not have that much expectation for Kalok Express as a stall in a food court. I do like the selections and the price is reasonable. Shrimp Wonton Noodle ($5.50) was quite disappointed though. The wontons were balls of hard meat with mushy texture, I could not find those "fresh" shrimps. The noodle though was cooked good with a nice bite. That bowl of noodle is definitely a 2 star. I might give them another try? Cart Noodle might be more promising? Just skip the wontons.

    Looks like there has been some new stalls that recently opened in the First Markham Place food court. Kalok Express is one of two recent openings in the food court, the other being Noodle Soup. Kalok Express serves mostly Hong Kong-style snacks, similar to the street food stalls you used to see everywhere in HK. It's a unique addition to the food court, as you can order an entree from another food stall, then order some extra snacks from Kalok Express, as the prices are quite cheap here. The first time I tried Kalok Express, I had the cart noodles, where you get to pick your noodles and ingredients you want to add. The cart noodles are okay for food court quality, but I've had better out there. The second time, I tried their curry fish balls. Their curry is quite spicy, so if your spice tolerance is low, I would try something else. However I found it to be quite tasty and reminiscent of HK street food. They have a lot of other snacks that are worth trying, and I do believe this is an excellent addition to the FMP food court.

    Walk past this food place a lot of times for the past few years. Finally made up my mind and ordered and it's one of the worst decision Ever. Fish ball was hard... yes finh ball was really hard. Pork intestine were cooked in curry sauce but not my favourite. Broth doesn't have too much flavour. Good thing is I didn't put too much hope so was not as disappointed.

    Overall 3.5 stars. Kalok Express is a noodle and snack food booth. It sells soup noodles, cart noodles, lo meins, a few rice entrees and traditional Chinese snacks. The pricing is on par with other noodle places in the same mall. I ordered their cart noodle because I wanted a healthy combination. I had vermicelli (non fried, so it was healthier than egg noodle), fish cake slices (the lower fat protein among the options) and Chinese broccoli (an usual option among cart noodle places). The result was a cleanly and delicately tasted soup noodle in the picture. The portion was sufficient. The ingredients were fresh. I rate Kalok Express as 3.5 stars because it has a relatively bigger selection of vegetables in the cart noodle menu. I have yet to try their other wonton and dumpling soup noodles, so I shall return.

    If one likes the idea of choosing one's own ingredients for the Noodle Soup, then this is the place to go. The Noodle Soup comes with soy milk. And if one is willing to pay $1.00 extra, one can get a bowl of so called "Sharks Fin Soup".(regular price, $3.00 per bowl) It even offers choice of noodles, see the photos. So this is Hong Kong style "Cart Noodle Soup" all about. The 4 star rating is solely based on food.

    Came here at 11:50am on Sunday and the food court was still pretty quiet. But this hk style noodle place had 2 ppl working but took them 15mins to make a fishball seedwee soup. Tasted normal, not bad but not wow. For the hot hk milk tea, thry put sugar for you and its too sweet, make sure you ask for less sugar if you prefer it not as sweet.

    We were first time here that we thought this one was same as the Richmond Hill location, but they…read morewere different brands. The menus were similar and also like Hong Kong style cafe. We got the Spicy Pumpkin Sauce fish noodles and Tomato Sauce fish noodles. We also got the diced Golden Toast with condensed milk. All of them were delicious. Here offered the customers extra free noodles when customer was not enough for the original size. There was 15% off while they are currently on 2nd Anniversary Celebration. It's worth to try and find some healthy food.

If you're not a fan of natural fish flavours, this might not be the spot for you. But for me, I love the fullness of the soup, and how all the flavours provide a hearty and comforting meal. They also have tomato base, spicy or other options if you're not a fan of fish, but my favorite is probably the original fish broth base. It comes with pieces of white fish. You can also switch it up and have it come with other ingredients such as fish tofu, or brisket. Definitely recommend to come try. There is a bit of a wait often when I come on the weekend but service is quick and speedy, in a typical hk-Asian style. The space is also a converted house so the layout is a bit odd and a bit hot in some corners, but manageable. If you cannot do steep steps, ask the servers to have you seated on the main level.

    Came by on a nice quiet week night for a bowl of comfy noodles. We had the stir fried pork on their…read moreregular hand pulled noodles to start. It was really oily, though the noodles were really nice and chewy. I found the pool of oil quite difficult to get past though. Next we got the classic beef noodles. We went for the flat, soft noodles which were great. As they state though, it gets really soft and mushy after a bit, so I recommend maybe sticking with the regular chewy noodles. The beef was soft and the radish was sweet. The soup base was comforting in a way but also very heavily salty. I couldn't tell if there was just a lot of MSG in there, but I couldn't sip on the soup much. We also ordered the shan xin bao, which is a fried soup dumpling of sorts. The breading was really thick and the soup was quite sweet. Not really the taste we were use to. We also got the pig ear and cucumbers cold dish. This was absolutely swimming in oil as well. They chop up black bean in there for flavour and it just added a really bitter taste. We didn't end up touching most of this, opting to bring it home, rinse it, and re-season it ourselves instead so the food wouldn't be wasted. All in all, the service is nice. I think the baked rice could be worth a try, but there's a lot of great noodle options in the area I personally prefer. As always, give it a try! They have a lot of great reviews on Yelp, so it potentially just doesn't suit my preferences.

    Big Beef Bowl Hand-Pulled Noodle is such a long standing spot in Markham for a good reason…read more Their lunch is tasty, fast, and inexpensive. $25 lunch combo for two people (Mon, Tues, and Thurs, opens at 11AM). It comes with 1 hot clay pot rice, 1 soup noodle, and a decent sized snack. A few choices for each of these items. Check the menu out. Honestly can't ask for more and this is why it gets jam packed easily at lunch time. Good news is that people are usually eat-and-go without sticking around for long. So even with the crowd, you might be able to get a seat in 10~15 min during the busiest time. Alternatively, quite a bit of people simply call-in for takeout's and Uber. Awesome price-value, decent comfort food with great taste, jam-packed at lunch time. Not a bad choice.

They have different special offers each day from Monday to Friday. We ordered the special Linyi Style Stir Fried Chicken on Friday. And we also ordered Boiled Basa Fish with pickled Cabbage & Green Pepper. They were pretty traditional Chinese styles. The white rice or brown rice both can have as much as we could. That's good for men. We both like here, but they don't offer specials during the weekends. But they do have other special packages, just a bit different. And they also have the membership that we could collect points and then we could use the points to get drinks or different snacks or dishes.

    New sauerkraut fish soup spot in Markham…read more A chain from asia that has finally made it's way to Markham. They are known for their sauerkraut fish soup that comes with unlimited self serve rice on the side. Servers were attentive, spacing of the seating and tables were tight. Often times people kept brushing up against my chair while getting up to go get their rounds of rice. Although not a deal breaker, was annoying while trying to enjoy your food. The portions are big enough for 2 if you get a large, but since it was our first time we wanted to try 2 different soups. Here's what we got: Chicken wings 4/5 - Came out raw the first time after we bit into it. But quickly flagged a server to let them know how this issue. They brought us a new one shortly after that was perfectly cooked, juicy and crispy on the outside. Laotan boiled fish with pickled cabbage and chili 4/5 - Their number one classic so we had to try. It's sour and spicy with the right amount of kick to it. Basa fish filets were also tasty. Came out luke warm. Princess's tomato fish 4/5 - Packed with tomato flavour. Savoury and paired well with the basa fish filet. Came with bean curd noodles as well. Came out luke warm. Easily would be a five star review if both soups that we got came out piping hot rather than lukewarm. Regardless, a great spot for a quick in and out meal.

    Before coming, I read a lot of Yelp reviews, so my expectations weren't high. The actual experience…read morewas a mix of pleasant surprises and disappointments. First, the pros: their burgers are definitely a highlight. The patties are very substantial, with a genuine meaty flavor, not the mass-produced kind. The toppings are also well-chosen, not just piled on haphazardly. The plating is also a plus; it looks quite appetizing when it arrives at the table. The service is generally friendly, not overly enthusiastic but not unpleasant either. However, the cons are also quite obvious. The biggest problem is the inconsistent quality--some dishes are excellent, while others are rather ordinary, even making you feel like "something else tastes better." Plus, the prices aren't cheap, so if you happen to order an average dish, the value for money doesn't quite meet your expectations. Also, the restaurant lacks a truly memorable signature dish, making it less memorable after your meal.

It's also clean and spacious, we didn't have to wait coming here for lunch and had a pleasant time. We tried the hue-style noodles and the broth was rich and flavourful, not super spicy but with a very slight hint of heat. It's good if you're not too into spicy foods. We also got some picked garlic and peppers to add for a boost of spiciness. We also ordered their fruit smoothie with coffee which was such a delight! The coffee was rich and delicious and paired well with the coconut. Next time I'd want to try it with their durian flavour (for those who can handle the king of fruits). You can also build your own pho if you want to choose your own noodle bowl.
