Vancouver is pretty damn good too

[@kirktruong592]

Richmond bc. Toronto is the best Chinese in the east. The best in the west is Richmond bc I'm telling you.

[@CritCommanda]

You never mentioned Richmond Hill, where all the high-class uppity chinese food is. In Markham, there's lots of good places in Peachtree Plaza and the restaurants outside First Markham Place. For that Hong Kong Bistro, best one is New City in Peachtree. Also try commerce gate in Richmond Hill and Times Square in Richmond Hill, lots of good restaurants. In Scarborough all the good chinese places are in North Scarborough, like Midland from Finch to McNicol for example. Downtown Chinatown has nothing on Markham/Scarborough/Richmond Hill. I've lived in Markham my whole life, I've seen the best restaurants come and go

I second the vote for Vancouver⭐

[@tommytufguy3432]

Vancouver is where it's at. The variety of unreal food here is tough to beat.

[@ericyuan9718]

Vancouver has the edge at the high end for Chinese food, Toronto has better value and options.

[@alfernken]

Have eaten Chinese food in both cities many times over the years and would definitely give the edge to Vancouver.

[@stashoneill]

I lived in Vancouver for 16 years and although the chinese food is amazing(food court in Aberdeen Center, Bao Bei, Dinasty House), it doesn’t compare to Toronto. The variety of restaurants is insane and the authenticity is, bar none, the best outside of China and Hong Kong. You just can’t compare the two.

[@DouglasMcGill-yd7ip]

Toronto not only has Chinese food from multiple regions of China but it also has Chinese food from other countries: Chinese-Indian Food, called Hakka Chinese-Peruvian Food, called chifa Tibetan cuisine - I'll avoid the controversy and just say it exists Chinese-Jamaican food Chinese-Ecuadorian food. You can also find spice bags which is a staple of Chinese-Irish cuisine.

[@Ann-hm7gj]

Never had irish chinese. Jamaican and hakka chinese is the best!!!

[@domenicgalata1470]

Not to mention all of the cuisine from the Asian diaspora has excellent representation in Canada. Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, Laotian, Tibetan….and on and on.

[@plainsight1249]

Haka is my favorite! Chili Chicken @ Yeuh Tung Restaurant!!

Toronto is a culmination of the world and the best gift is the culinary collage of flavor that is available to us. The amount of fusion restaurants that make some amazing combination foods is worth the stroll down some street. The whole world in a city. :D

[@andrewp5845]

Chinese Peruvian is legit

[@jimmyjimmyeegalok]

My family makes the drive from Boston to the GTA for our Cantonese food fixes twice a year. Boston and NY can’t compare. There are other better Dimsum places in Markham and Richmond Hills. I don’t consider New Century in the top tier. There are also many newer cha chaan tang places in Scarborough, Markham, and Richmond Hills. Did you visit any of the Asian supermarkets? Even if you have several months, You can’t come close to trying all the Chinese restaurants. Outside Hong Kong and Guangdong, the GTA and Vancouver areas have the best Cantonese Chinese food. For your next family trip to the GTA, let me know if you want a recommendation list of better places to eat.

[@skatingcanuck9837]

My next question for the vlogger was if he had tried NY Cantonese Chinese food. With NY the rent and overhead costs are so high. We have such incredible variety in Toronto here. Due to a large number of immigrants from mainland China restaurant investors have brought some amazing chefs from China in the last decade or so - this has raised the cuisine level even higher. Thank you for your kind words about my city. Although we are not considered to be up there with Paris, Rome, or Tokyo we are very proud of our food scene.

[@kevwwong]

I don't think Boston has a Chinese-centric supermarket like T&T, but I do remember seeing an H Mart there years back. So it's not all bad for them.

Forget about it....raised in T.O but now live in NJ. The Chinese food in T.O is beyond compare, best in N.A period. My gf who's not Asian even agrees with me. She loves Congee Queen and asks me if there's anything in NJ that compares.....NOPE! The people who recommended these restaurants are legit. Been to New Century and dim sum was the best I've had.

[@EugWanker]

Toronto Chinese food is great, but specifically for Chinese seafood restaurants, Vancouver is way better.

[@guru2899]

@@EugWanker Vancouver is def legit, I'd say def 2nd best in N.A but T.O not only has the best chefs but the best variety in Chinese food. Friends in HK who've been to T.O even agree that the Chinese food is at par or even better in some ways than HK. Remember 1997? A lot of young chefs left HK and came to T.O.

[@EugWanker]

@@guru2899 Yeah, there is a good range in Toronto, but I was specifically talking about seafood restaurants in my other comment. When it comes to Chinese seafood, Vancouver is king in Canada. It makes sense though, because Vancouver is an ocean port city. Toronto isn't.

Non Asians and Filipinos are the legit the only ones I hear loving Congee Queen. Their food is whatever, nothing to write home about.

[@and16942]

Congee queen is ok… thats about all I can say. So many better options. Also, New Cen dim sum is the cheap spot… it’s good but there are so many better spots. Go north west 10min and there are tons of options. Go to The One for char sui.. the dim sum is pretty good too

I lived in Toronto for 30 years. That was 8 years ago. I absolutely, undoubtedly, constantly, miss the food.

[@yoditdegefu6096]

What an incredibly beautiful and loving family. They constantly display a deep, special connection that’s so rare and precious. It reminds me so much of where I come from, where family ties are everything and the love and support between members are unbreakable. It’s something that can only be truly understood if you’ve grown up in a similar environment, where closeness and affection form the foundation of your relationships. There’s a unique quality in families like this that goes beyond words-it’s a sense of belonging, unconditional support, and a bond that grows stronger with time. Seeing them together reflects the warmth and love I’ve always cherished in my own family. The food and drinks are always more enjoyable when shared with good company. It’s not just about the taste; it’s the experience of being surrounded by people who bring laughter, conversation, and a sense of togetherness that elevates the entire moment.❤

[@jjsmith4829]

No Hakka restaurant? But yeah, Toronto is a foodie city. Great Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Italian, Greek, Arab, Persian, etc etc. Simple as fried chicken sandwiches and burgers, to east African food, Somali food, whatever you can think of. We got it and it's amazing!

[@BWT599]

Grew up on the east side of Toronto called Scarborough in the 1980s and my grandparents owned a hair salon in Chinatown. I was able to experience the great food of Chinatown downtown and then the emerging Chinese restaurant movement from Agincourt to Markham/Richmond Hill. I left Toronto to work in the US for 11 years and came back in my mid 30s. Even though my mom is from Shanghai, I had never truly experienced Northern Style Chinese food. Hot dang, most incredible Chinese food ever as more Northern style restaurants popped up all over Toronto. Soup in a dumpling letz go! 😅

[@ClassicEntInc]

Hey you did a great job showcasing my city I always knew the food here tasted great but having it come from people from out of town who are experienced in this cuisine is definitely a benefit!

[@leoc1812]

I could be wrong, this is just what I think... But I truly believe what sets us apart is that Canada is welcoming and embracing of other cultures and food as a result. We are not afraid of digging in and in fact crave authentic foods from all over. London has us beat for Indian food sure, but make no mistake the Indian food here is fire. But nothing like our Chinese food. We love Chinese people, culture and food.

Just so you know $25 a pound USD when you do the conversion works out the $34 a pound CAD!

[@samhuangto]

the difference is at 32 CAD per pound, it comes with all other dishes already like soup, veggies

[@jackiegriffiths7958]

I commented the same for all the American viewers $100 CAD is only about $72 USD so our food prices are actually pretty good for a big city.

Agree. They haven't even seen the fancy frozen dimsum places that cropped up during the pandemic and T&T is definitely worth a visit for someone coming from the states. Plus, the other seafood places: Lobster Port, Jumbo Lobster which are equally good. Also, the chain of Starchiva restaurants are good quality and Zunyan is also a nice place for private dinners.

I am totally not very experienced with this cuisine but lived in TO in the late 80s for a year when I went to college there. Local college students took me to plenty of chinese restaurants many times and showed me what to order. It was always amazing esp teh szechuan. Amazing. Years later I lived in Vancouver and could not find chinese food on that level I remembered in Toronto. Have never had it that good since. aywwhere.

[@jakePark9333]

I actually had the opposite experience. While Toronto has great Chinese food, I have always found Vancouver Chinese food to be even better quality and have more variety. That being said I still prefer Toronto as it has Vancouver beat on pretty much all non-Asian cuisines.

[@buttnugget2900]

@@jakePark9333 A lot of Toronto cuisine incorporates a lot of fusion from various cultures because it's all so accusable here so some "traditional" dishes might be EXTRA good because of the availability of some other ingredients that might not be the norm for that dish. Even down to the legal standard of ingredients in foods keeps some things in a more natural ratio as apposed to our southern neighbors who use a lot of HFCS.

[@clarissathompson]

The game changed in the late 90s for Vancouver and Chinese cuisine. The mass immigration to BC from Hong Kong just before the handover of HK to China in 99 brought with them incredible new restaurants with top tier food! Give the current Chinese food scene in Vancouver another go!

[@ThePoorStudent]

Totally agree - Toronto dim sum is better than Boston dim sum. The dim sum pieces are larger in Toronto too. The quality difference is probably due to the concentration of Asians in Markham. Boston's Asian community is relatively small and many Asians are there for college and then they get out.

[@rillystar]

lol there is a Congee King in Richmond (Vancouver suburb), wait it's Congee Noodle King. Does that mean King of Congee and Noodles? If you do ever do Vancouver, you'll like the Chinese food here. My fam in SF comes up here to eat. Lots of different styles of Chinese here as well. Come in the summer, the night market will also be open on the weekends then (though things are more expensive in the summer) otherwise bring an umbrella as it rains almost as much as Seattle. There are some pretty nifty fusion places as well. While most of the popular Chinese places are in Richmond now a days, old China Town still has some hold outs like Sun Fresh Bakery (great for cheap eats on the go like steam buns, congee, limited rice rolls), New Town Bakery (also does steam buns/baked buns and HK Cafe but it's not my fave tbh) - very popular with tourists so expect lines here vs Sun Fresh), The Boss (HK Cafe and bakery) and Kam Wai (take home frozen dim sum but you can eat dishes fresh there as well but not a lot of space to sit and eat). Burnaby also has some pretty good food in the Crystal Mall food court but it's a bit out of the way where as you can really get all you want in Richmond between the Chinese malls (Aberdeen, Parker Place, Pacific Place etc). Also try HK BBQ Master for BBQ Pork, Siu Yuk and Soy Chicken etc. My fam has been going there since the 90s and it's very popular now even after the original owner's son took over. You'll find a lot of good HK food since in the 90s a lot of ppl immigrated to Vancouver (trying to escape any fallout from Handover back in 96ish) and brought all the yummy food and excellent chefs as well :) I could probably canvas my family for their faves in the city as I can't tell you anything about crustaceans since I'm allergic (so sad). HK Cafe style food also good here too - sadly I only tried one place in Toronto so I can't give a full comparison but I preferred my fave places here over the one I tried there. If you do come to Vancouver/Richmond, you'll probably need more time for all the Chinese foods XD and also note a lot of places are cash only (some also do eInterac - not Venmo or CashApp cause it's not available in Canada). Your elderly fam will probably be pretty comfortable in Richmond as you don't need any English to get around either, and typically you will find someone anywhere in the city that speaks Cantonese or Mandarin if you end up in need of help for some reason.

[@jackiegriffiths7958]

Toronto and area has the best Asian food, not only Chinese but Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, etc. Remember when pricing the Canadian dollar is worth less so $25 USD is about $35 CAD so the prices are not out of line with US prices and the lobster price is actually cheaper. Your dinner for 6-8 people was $368 CAD so about $265 USD which is not bad for a "tourist trap". Glad you all enjoyed your visit to T.O. We usually go to Markham for dim sum but if downtown we go to SkyDragon on Spadina...5th floor of mall and has an old school vibe and still use the carts. There are better, more upscale places in the north end but it still holds a special place in my heart.

[@kevwwong]

First time seeing your videos. Love the overall presentation. Is Canadian Chinese food better than Boston? I mean, if you went to Montreal or Windsor or Edmonton you'd probably say "no". But you went to a metro area that is easily one of the three best spots in NA for Chinese food (if you want to say Vancouver or NYC is better... you're wrong, but it's not worth arguing over.). And I'd say that the Toronto area has the most diverse assortment of ethnic foods outside of NYC. Anyway, you would not go wrong with either BBQ restaurant in First Markham. I prefer Extra (aka the one on the right) but HK's (aka the one on the left) is also very good, and I think actually has the better roast pig. But you basically go to these places for the duck, roast pig or char siu. Sad no one got iced lemon tea (dong ling cha) at the cha chaan teng. That's usually the best iced option. Glad you enjoyed your Toronto food trip. Hopefully you come back and try other places.

I used to live in TO (Scarborough). We used to go to New Century for Dim Sum. So good!!! I miss it, nothing like it:-) where I live now.

I never knew you lived in Boston until you mentioned it once but the moment your dad opens his mouth there’s no mistaking where he grew up lol. Were you just afraid to give shoutouts to Drake and Bieber?? 😂

Looks like a calorie rich vacation. The dim sum place was tantalizing. Nice to see your family, especially Chinese Grandma (for longer than a split second)

I'm a Canadian who travels to Boston 5-6 times per year. To this date, I have yet to find a Chinese restaurant in the Boston area that is at least equivalent to those in the Toronto area. 🙁

Boston is bad or mediocre at most things, but Bostonians think they're the best at everything 😂
