A very special thank you to Vessi for sponsoring this video. I had a chance to try Canada's most iconic buffet on a recent trip to Toronto. Feeling so good to be able to travel again and also to dine at the buffets. This is the Mandarin buffet which is probably to most famous and iconic buffet in the Greater Toronto Area. And as fantastic as the prime rib and all the selections were, the service and that fact that people are returning back to visiting their favorite eateries was what made it special. Whether you're touring or visiting the city or a local, I hope you give this a try!

Thanks again to Vessi! Click the vessi.com/timlee and use my code TIMLEE to get $25 off of your Vessi shoes. Vessi’s are my go to pair of sneakers! Whether walking in my city or exploring new places, they keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter; and most importantly, they keep you dry in the rainy Vancouver weather. They are also the sneakers I wear when traveling and exploring new cities, and so glad to see travel opening up again. Finally, no more wet socks at home or when traveling!

Thank You!

“Onion rings. More vegetables.” 😂😂😂😂

[@TimLeeLetsGo]

LoL Sophia... Not sure why I said that 😆

[@ChampippleD]

“The healthy salad is potato” and “I need some veggies to be healthy” then adding deep fried tempura broccoli made me lol. I enjoyed this video though - just getting hyped for my first Mandarin visit in years.

[@williamrussell3811]

As a retired chef I have never seen such a clean restaurant . Even the hot buffet water to keep the food hot is crystal clear!! I have been there many times and have never left disappointed .

[@laportetroite]

You are such a gracious presenter. Not tired watching your videos. Thumbs up!

[@kevinkeswick1243]

It's good to see that the Mandarin Buffet survived the controlled demolition of small businesses during the pandemic. It has been years since I was at one, but they were always a major cut above the typical buffet in the city. As of November 2022, the regular dinner price Monday to Friday is $35.99 which is a good deal for that variety and quantity of food. By comparison the price pre-covid in 2019 (according to TripAdvisor) was $29.99. So, in other words in the three years the price has increased about 20% or 6.6% a year which is a VERY LOW increase in price when you consider that prices at our major supermarkets have increased on many items well over 100%! In other words, restaurants like they Mandarin provide PROOF POSITIVE that the major grocery chains in Canada (Loblaws, Metro, Sobey's) used Covid to RIP-OFF Canadians by massively jacking up their prices when their major competition - restaurants like the Mandarin - were completely shut-down so as to "prevent the spread of covid". The variety of food at the Mandarin is mindboggling. Too be honest I would have taken more than one run at the carving station for a juicy thick slice of prime rib with 2 or 3 Yorkshire puddings on the side smothered in gravy! I also would have loaded up on the chicken balls smothered in the sweet and sour sauce as well as the BBQ spareribs and fried chicken! Good choice to avoid the bread station that just fills you up! I was always surprised that the Mandarin didn't offer free refills on soft drinks since those gaseous drinks fill up belly and put a damper on appetite. If you are a senior citizen, you can get 20% off any time with valid photo ID (does Loblaws or Metro give you 20% off if you are 65 or older?).

[@melaninmonroe161]

Hey Tim... Glad to see you back at the buffets.. Iv'e always wanted to travel to Toronto. I will have to add this buffet to my list.

Thank you so much tootsie black cat! Much appreciate your kind comment. I generally travel with friends and most of the time I managed to drag them out the a buffet or restaurant for filming. Though many times they are buffet'ed out and needed to rest. It's actually quite a different experience when taking a video. 😉

Oh this is on an early weekend dinner. For buffets, I generally try to go during a weekend dinner as that's when they have the most offerings. (and going there early when things are pristine is good too)
