Surprisingly good Chinese place we found totally on accident!…read moreOn the outside, it looks really run down, but the inside is quite big and spacious. When we went for lunch, there was only another family there so we were seated immediately. We ordered the General Tso's chicken, Mapo tofu, and sticky rice. We ordered two small bowls of rice too (which ended up being BIG bowls!). The food here is SURPRISINGLY DELICIOUS! The General Tso's was the right crispyness and the chicken inside was juicy, and not too much sauce overpowering. I think it probably was one of the best Asian style fried chicken dishes I've had. The mapo tofu too, wasn't too strong in flavor and the vegetables also mixed very well with the dish. The sticky rice wrapped in bamboo leaves were smaller than expected, but each order comes with two, so it wasn't too bad. There were a LOT of people picking up orders or taking out their orders, but I think the food was worth eating in at the restaurant. Definitely will visit again! :)

Although this store has bakery in its name, this store sells other British goods, not only pastry. The pastries are only a small section of the store while candy and goods take up 75% of the store roughly For a majority of the pastries, they are stored in refrigerated display cases. They have Scottish eggs, baked pies, birdies and more. The scones, some bread and turnovers are stored at room temperature. If you are looking for a snack, I would say go for a pack of scones or apple turnover. I had the cheese and onion birdie cold. It was on the heavier side but would be better if you warmed it up, unfortunately they do not have any microwave or ovens to warm up the baked goods. The parking a this location is diagonal plaza parking along the store front. Nothing to exceptional about this place but if you're looking for baked English goods, this is a good place to visit.

Was going to get a sandwich or a sausage, but remembered that we were having sandwiches for dinner later. They have a cafeteria bar as well as the ability to order food. I ordered two cabbage rolls, mac and cheese, and veggies for one meal. Roasted pork with sautéed onions and scalloped potatoes for the other. We were sharing among 3 of us. The cabbage rolls were perfect. To me, tasted like someone's Polish or Russian mamma made them. So good. The veggies were al dente, good mix. The mac and cheese had a rich flavor and was nice and cheesy. The roasted pork tasted like Sunday afternoon dinner. Omg- so good! The scalloped potatoes were the best I've ever eaten in my life. My wife agreed. Amazing. This is a gem here in Hamilton. For those readers in Portland- think of a bigger version of Edelweiss or Otto's Sausages, with a bigger menu and a hot food bar with amazing food! Excellent job! Btw- the lady who helped me was super sweet and helpful. Didn't get her name but had an Eastern European accent.

Like what is a chicken ball?? It is exactly what you'd think. Fried dough ball ( huge) with a piece of tiny chicken inside!! Hmmmkayy! Most dishes are blend, white and zero spice since it is depends on the neighborhood. But this tiny hole in the wall, take out only for decades spot is also very popular. They open from 2 pm-10 pm or 12 am. Takeout only. Many combos! Like many! And it's also not cheap but if you get combos, it's worth it.. A lot of fried items though. Oh yea, chow mein doesn't come with noodles!! It's just chicken and bean sprouts!! For my non English speaking Italian family, this is as exotic as it gets since they are not used to it. But they also like it. Chicken ball being their favorite next to Riso-frites ( fried rice) or that pasta-Fritz's ( chow mein aka fried pasta). Easy take out spot, packed well.

Husband and I spend time in the Muskoka Lakes region of northern Ontario every summer. One of our…read morefavorite, most-anticipated things to do in Muskoka (something that I look forward to with baited breath ALL YEAR, honestly) is going to the Gravenhurst Farmers Market. It's one of the best Farmers Markets I have *ever* stumbled on, and my hands-down favorite vendor is Tam Nguyen at Saigon Soul Food. The Saigon Soul Food stand is phenomenal. Tam (along with her husband, parents, and sons) runs the stand like a well-oiled-machine, cooking up her Vietnamese delights, offering samples, and selling her products like gangbusters. You can purchase spring rolls, petit pies, sticky rice, satay all to eat right away at the market; or you can buy her delicious products frozen to heat up and serve at home. We usually make a lunch of her sticky rice and her wonderful shrimp or tofu garden rolls. Most of the food Tam creates is vegan and/or gluten free! Husband and I *love* her spring rolls and her curry puffs. We usually buy half a dozen boxes of her frozen apps to take home to the cabin -- the bonus is that (as well as in the oven) you can cook those bad boys on the grill! We also adore her homemade Asian sauces, too, and always stock up with enough jars to last us the entire year! Her garlic plum blows any duck sauce clear out of the water, and the spicy garlic plum packs a wonderful heat and fire that complements whatever it garnishes. Her peanut satay sauce is insanely good, too. If you live in Hamilton (or even St. Catherine's or Mississagua), you're lucky enough to be able to visit the Saigon Soul Food storefront whenever your heart desires. It's open 10 - 5 during the week, and I understand you can order lunches/meals there, or buy her products to take home. I might move to Hamilton in the very near future...

There's an aisle of sweets and an aisle of baking ingredients. Another aisle of non perishables, and drinks, and bulk candies as well. Even a pharmacy. Really a great variety and different items than what I've seen at other Eastern European stores in the area. Highly recommend!

There are several items that we usually order - shrimp steamed dumplings, steamed chives dumpling with shrimp, steamed rice noodle with shrimp, deep fried dumpling with assorted meat, pan fried bean curd, pan fried eggplant, salt and pepper deep fried eggplant, Singapore Fried Rice Noodles and Fried Noodle with Beef and Soya Sauce. The one disappointment was the steamed pork dumpling. The last time I ate there, there was a lot of gristle and parts of the dumpling were inedible. Previously, it was fine. I've had dinner there as well, but the flavours and 'wok hei' are fair and not quite up to expectations. The restaurant could use a fresh look and new carpet. Service is fair. It may be the most authentic Chinese food you'll find in Hamilton.
