Asians Lounge

[Whos ur dadd]

In light of some disriminatory practices going on here, I\'m going to start an Asians Only Lounge.

To post in this thread, you must satisfy one of the following requirements:

1. You\'re an Asian;
2. You want to be an Asian;
3. You want to date an Asian;
4. You know at least one Asian on a first-name basis; or
5. Your post will contain the word Asian.

To kick off this thread, today\'s discussion topic will be: Best bubble tea joint in the GTA.

Tomorrow\'s topic: Training your non-Asian friends how to find parking at Pacific Mall.

[SABIO]

1: I\'m not
2: I don\'t
3: That would be Kewl, don\'t tell my GF
4: I can\'t pronounce the names properly
5: What was that word again.........

edit... Ummm What\'s Bubble Tea?:sarc

[S.F.W.]

1: I\'m not
2: I don\'t
3: Been there, done that...but sure I\'ll go there again!
4: I know several
5: Is mentioning the word itself not disriminating ?

Haven\'t been to bubble tea in many years...but I do remember this one place in R.Hill that had games you could play at the tables...I like that idea.

A better question nowadays is, who HASN\'T dated a asian girl? Dating an asian girl is more common than spotting a 3. Everyone and their uncle has dated one or is dating one.

LMAO!

*raises hand* :p

[TheProfessor]

Haha, this thread is jokes:D

I\'ve never dated an asian, though I have many, many as friends.

[mEtH]

Alright, we all know why this thread was created.

ANYONE GOT ANY SPECIAL RICE RECIPES???? special additions or are you all rice cooker happy. :p

[Junior]

why does this thread smell like fish :hoho

[Zaku_4]

umm,
lol whos asian here anyways?

anyways lets continue with the thread! i believe the best bubble tea place is, in no particular order:

gofortea, destiny(depends which ones), a place for us.

places like teashop 168 just doesnt do it for me, and when refering to bubble tea place im assuming ur talkinga bout the kind were u can go into the place, sitdown, and \"chill\". however the best bubble tea place for just ordering take out MUST BE first markham place\'s tasy house! haha i love that place, so many cards -___________________-\

btw i HIGHLY RECOMMEND gofortea in commerce valley and a place for us in first markham place. lol then again im somewhat biased because of sentimental value that these particular places have for meeeee :D

EDIT: best \"chow fan\" must be \"ham yu, gi lup, chow fan\" = \"salty fish, chicken piece, friend rice\"
and the \"jui gaow siu\" = \"funniest\" friend rice is ***EN STYLE CHOW FAN! haha many people pronounce it as ****ING XDDDD

\"can i have ONE ****ING RICE?\"
*5 mins or less later*
\"HERES YOUR ****ING RICE\"
XD

[MazdaTree]

i kno tagalog, PEK PEK or Tannnnga spelling may be off but i know the flips understand me:hoho

[Whos ur dadd]

Thanks to Zaku who seems to be the only person taking this thread seriously. And for those who don\'t meet the admission requirements for this Lounge, please stay out: it\'s an elite subgroup we have here, and we want to keep YOUR KIND out of this Lounge.

;)

Today\'s normally-scheduled topic has been replaced. The new discussion topic for today:

Can you tell if a Chinese restaurant is any good by looking at the ethnicity of its clientele? Case in point: Lee Garden in downtown Chinatown has a huge non-Asian clientele. Is it any good, or does it merely serve great sweet and sour chicken balls? Hmmm....

agreed. those are the best places in markham/R.Hill for bubble tea

but ill rank them :p :p

gofortea - seems to be the new \'hangout\' of this summer. nice cars, nice girls, nice atmosphere and good drinks ---> (1)


a place for us - small/cozy feeling, drinks are REALLY good, kinda getting \"run-down\" -----> (2)

destiny - the one @ commerce gate sux, but the one on starwalk is ALOT better. soo many waitresses ahahahah. but drinks are meh (good, but nothing out of the ordinary). AND, WHY CAN I NEVER SIT ON THE SECOND FLOOR ? has any one been up there ? i remember i had a party with over 15 pp and they still didnt open it up for us.


for takeout .. its gotta be congeewong @ fmp
:p :p :p

[SourcE]

I know an a guy named Zhi Li, not sure if he\'s asian though :p


Not that I\'m desperate or anything but ladies email me on never_dated_an_asian@hotmail.com :p :p :D :sarc

[Fuman]

lol...
I dun like gofortea, no games there.
A place for us is good, games and is cheaper there too.

The best food around RH, would be malyasian place by major mac and bayview. A bit on the expensive side, but big dishes and amazing food. like 10 bucks with tips/tax for a dish.

edit: so what do u guys think is the best place for buffets?

I had a great time there! We just sat around drinking coffee and drinks, eating and talking about our Mazdas. Mods, where to buy things, what to look for, what to avoid, future plans. A good time was had by all, and I understood most of it too (I can understand 80% of the Tagalog spoken, but conversing and writing is a whole other story). It\'s a good thing we were in the shade to, with the humidex it was around 45c.

Never tried Vietnamese food until lately...damn that\'s good stuff! Cheap too! The only places that I\'ve gone to are Ginger and Ginger Too, downtown (close to work) and one busy, out of the way place across the street from North York Sheridan Mall.

[jon_jai]

There\'s no parking there so I usually end up buying ulam to eat at home. Most of the time I eat at Remely\'s (Sheppard btw McCowan and Markham) or Gold Ribbon (south of Pacific Mall) or the Barrio Fiesta on Sheppard, east of Markham. I will travel for good food. :D

[Shat2]

Cantonese.

The best Pho place (for the beef noodle of course) IMHO is VIP Restaurant in the First Markham Place plaza. I do NOT trust Pho Hua (train) or Pho88 from all the stories I hear. Green Bamboo is alright but it ranks quite low compared to VIP (Midland and Sheppard).

Korean ... I don\'t like the Korean place at Commerce. BTW it\'s not real Korean food. :p Walker Hill is better IMHO (further west along Hwy 7 from Commerce).

I prefer \"real\" Korean food either in the Yonge/Finch area or downtown in Korea Town, made by Koreans. :D

Close, Bay & Wellesley. I\'ve tried Spring Rolls but they are always so busy during the lunch hour that I might end up returning late to work (that\'s a bad thing, right?). Good food however, at either of their locations.

[dredd2099]

oh yea!
keep em food places reccomendations comin
hehehhe, willing to go outta way for good food as well (well, good and cheap)
for korean bbq, plaza bout a block north of midland and finch is great

I find the Atrium on Bay location of Spring Rolls to be much better than the one on Yonge.

[Candyman]

Best Thai place: \"Real Thailand\" Bloor/Spadina. Ironically run by real Thai people.

Best Korean place: \"Korean BBQ\" I think. On Yonge just north of College (West side just past 7eleven)

Best Viet food: Sorry, only in Montreal. Toronto places all taste the same.

Best Italian: Toni Balloni Cumberland & Avenue (between Four Seasons & the Parking lot) Small place but the best lasagna ever.(Only served on fridays).

Not sure eactly where I gained 50 lbs in the last 5 years :sarc , but I\'m sure they are to blame. That and all the super cheap chinese food:D

I second what WTOM said. Coming from a Korean here, Korean BBQ is NOT, I repeat NOT Korean food. I don\'t know why people get it mixed up. Korean BBQ @ Commerce uses a Korean style way of cooking but in NO WAY is it Korean food. The BBQ at commerce ain\'t that good IMO. If you want a real Korean BBQ, go to a Korean restaurant and have your BBQ there. It comes with all the proper \"side dishes\" aas well. The whole point of the bbq is not to eat as much as possible, but to enjoy the taste of what\'s being cooked. I hate how people say they\'ve had korean food when all they\'ve had is imitation korean food.

BTW, Korea Town is actually on Bloor between Bathurst and Christie. Go to any restaurants there and you\'ll be sure have real korean food. Yonge and Finch is not koreatown, however, since there are sooo many Korean\'s living in the area, it acts as a uptown koreatown. There is a Morning Glory at both yonge & finch and bloor.

[whodilly]

What are you talking about! Korean bbq is the best bbq! Maybe it\'s not \"authentic\" korean cuisine but it sure tastes pretty damn good! I just go for the beef! And for the price (I usually do lunch or the night owl) it can\'t be beat. $10 can get you a wrap, subway sandwich... but BBQ? only with those korean grill houses can you satisfy those munchies after a session.

I remember going there almost everyweek during high school because I would have a singing practice and then we\'d all go for korean bbq. Ahh the first piece of beef off the grill tastes sooooo goood. Screw the seafood cause it makes the grill taste \'fishy\' and nobody likes fishy....
;)

[jon_jai]

if u weant real korean food.. go to the one at Market village!!
i went there and they can\'t even speak english!!

now that\'s pure korean for ya!

[wtom]

AFbunnie answered regarding Korean cuisine. Thx girl, finally posting again here! :D

As for stories... it\'s the same old story that gets spread around about the chefs adding some \"special ingredients\" into the bowls of beef noodles that come out. It probably was true many yrs ago and they\'ve \"cleaned up\" now but you know how it is. Negative comments stick more.

[SoopaBanana]

Taiwanese here.

Best Thai restaurant: Jasmine Rice across from Sherway Garden (427 / Gardiner). IMO Spring Roll sucks regardless of the location. If you want some decent Thai food downtown, try Salad King on Gerrard / Yonge across from Ryerson.

Best Viet place: Saigon Star (Bayview / 7) is pretty good, although it is not very authentic... Great seafood.

Now here goes my question: what happened to Lantern nearby Gerrard / Yonge???

Total agreement regarding Spring Roll!!! My first and only time was to the Yonge/Dundas one and WTF it was NOT good. Their Tom Yum soup was SWEET (literally). WTH. I asked the waitress and she went to the kitchen (without the soup) and asked the chef. Supposedly said that\'s how it should be... whatever! I know my Tom Yum soup! It should NOT be sweet.

Salad King is awesome! Loved it when I use to go to Ryerson. Seafood Flied Lice YUMMY!!!

Saigon Star use to be the sh!t but it has lost the touch from a few yrs back when all their dishes were amazing. Especially their popular curry crab dish!

Ah well... $6 for a bowl of Pho at VIP restaurant is my preference any time. :D

[Whos ur dadd]

Another vote for Salad King near Ryerson. Haven\'t been there in a couple of years, but when I did go, the food was fantastic. And a great price too. Is it still as good as it used to be?

There was a time where Young Thailand was awesome. Great tasting food. Then it went down the crapper. I\'ve only recently started to go back and I must say my last two meals there were pretty good.

And nother vote for the Thai place in the McDonald\'s plaza at Bayview and Major Mac! Someone mentioned this place earlier in this thread.

I\'m getting hungry!!!

[Whos ur dadd]

Today\'s topic:

Best Japanese-style buffet.

Wasabi (across from PMall) was pretty good.

Went to Yang (?) Sushi buffet (Hwy 7, West of Old Kennedy Road) yesterday. It was pretty good! They had excellent tasting Kalbi (which is the Canadian equivalent of Chinese sweet and sour chicken balls then? ;) ).

[Geologic]

Sushi on 7 AYCE is good.. but most of them are so much alike. Sushi on 7 has a pretty big menu in comparison to other places. I\'ve only heard bad things about wasabi.

[Zaku_4]

sushi on 7 is really good, pretty good price to, for a jap buffet.

its like 20 bucks usually which includes all you can eat plus drinks. and at lunch its like only 11 something!

amazing! =D

WArren... Check this place out... if you liked Green Bamboo... this will knock you out... specially with the hot sauce...... haha... I believe Midland and Finch... the plaza with the KFC and Fuji Optical.... there\'s a pho place... and it\'s juss damn good!

[Saphress]

oh and Sushi???

It\'s not the BEST place... but you can ALWAYS find it open... HAruuuuuuba!!! no one does the Spicy Salmon Maki like they do...

[S.F.W.]

I\'m a big Salad King fan. Especially after they redesigned the inside about two years back..
and I know the owners very well...went to school with their daughter

[Whos ur dadd]

The absolute best place in all of the GTA for sushi (not the cheapo all-you-can-eat-buffet (which I actually don\'t mind and quite enjoy)) is HAMA Sushi just outside one of the north doors of Market Village (PMall). Pricey as hell, but fantastic!!!

[wtom]

Saphress, can\'t remember who or where but someone else had suggested that same Pho place to me before ... looks like I\'ll be giving it a try sometime soon! It\'s the only obvious Pho place there right?

S.F.W. ... you dawg! I think you meant you TOOK her to school? :D j/k

[firstmazda]

Has anyone been to Kaji Sushi in the Queensway/Islington area in South Etobicoke??
Not a buffet or AYCE place, but supposedly one of the best sushi places and as
authentic as you can get.

I\'ve always seen it in the top 3 sushi places in Toronto Life magazine for like
the past 4 yrs! Kaji is supposedly the sushi master whom the guys downtown apprenticed
under.

I hear it\'s pricey but worth it! I\'ve always wanted to go there.

wow ive been there a few times, completely forgot about it! its really a good place to eat, but as you said, realllllllly pricey

For Thai Green Mango on Yonge/Bloor and for sushi I\'m talking authentic Japanese not Korean or Chinese owned downtown Benihana on Front St.

AF, I didn\'t know you were Korean. Bath/Chris area has the best Korean places. Have some Soju (SP?) that\'ll knock you out. I think I have a bottle left from my visit to Korea from a couple of years ago.

Big Bowl in Mississauga (on Dundas between Winstonchurch and Erinmills) serves up some pretty good Pho.

[whodilly]

J\'s Sushi bistro @ Bloor and Kipling. Just next to Kipling subway. Some of the best rolls around!! Try the spider roll, it\'s soft shell crab. Mmmm mmm tasty.

No there\'s a parking lot there. It\'s in the same plaza as the HO LEE CHOW!!!

[chaser]

Jap buffet: \"Ming Koo\" House, on 16th east of Bayview. There\'s another one at 14th/Kennedy but the 16th one is better.

Thai: Salad King rocks!!

Pho: The one in Time Square (Hwy 7/Lesile) called \"Kim Boo\" is pretty good.

Korean: Joon\'s at Korean Town (Bloor)

[bluntman]

What\'s \"Pho\"?

[-STRiFE-]

Jap buffet: AjiSai was pretty good when I went...been meaning to cross a few off this hitlist (http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?t=143259) from RFD but haven\'t gotten a chance.

Viet ... i don\'t know Viet but found most of the Viet noodle place has this word ..

Pho is vietnamese noodle soup with beef/beef balls/chicken..etc.

Yes!! definitely!! and prices aren\'t too bad... they have a whole bunch of cool rolls i\'ve never heard of. Deep Fried ones, \"Mexican\" roll, the Volcano roll comes out in flames!!

These are the same owners as \"Sushi 2 Go\" on Queensway/Islington. (Korean BTW)

we should have a TM3 Sushi meet!

S.F.W. ... you dawg! I think you meant you TOOK her to school? :D j/k

The only place... in the plaza!!!... it\'s got a logo of a lil gal with those big straw hats I believe holding a bowl and its a green background... it\'s on the opposite side of the plaza from the Taco bell

That is 5 min away from my work, if you guys decide to go to J\'s Sushi for lunch let me know.

Queen and University had a place called Sushi Bistro, but the last time I went it was closed. The Hand Rolls were huge for $2.50.

There is a new Japanese Buffet called \"House of Japan\" at Woodbine and Esna Park, it was pretty good.

Has anyone gone to \"419\" in Commerce Gate, pretty good buffet with a nice atmosphere, couches and a live Piano Player (didn\'t want to say Pianist!!) :D :p

[SoopaBanana]

419 used to be amazing but lately the food has gotten worse... :(

Woodbine and Esna Park? I\'ll definitely give that a try!

Hey will this lunch be a TM3 sponsored event? Free lunch?

[SoopaBanana]

Actually I like the sound of that... Why don\'t we meet up next week some time for lunch at Woodbine / 14 Sushi place? 12?

Warren: bring your wallet... lol

[wtom]

Free only to those who donate $10 to the club aight? :D

RR never knew you were part Viet ... then again, the last name shoulda rung a bell in my head. Oops.

TM3 wallet ... and it\'s almost empty. :(

EDIT: Can you confirm the name, address/exactLocation of this sushi place? Or someone post up an \"Events\" section thread ... won\'t need to be a huge attendance list (watch it be like 30 strong hahaha). Then again, who\'s got flexible lunch times like that (from work I mean)?

Big Bowl in Mississauga (on Dundas between Winstonchurch and Erinmills) serves up some pretty good Pho.

Indeed I am. There\'s lots of good Korean restaurants uptown as well. The one at Yonge and Clark isn\'t too bad for BBQ and regular Korean dishes... :)

i went to maison du japan. I went on a sat with a group of 12 people. The food was alright but the service was bad and the place was crowded. Didn\'t get what we ordered. My opinion is that it is not worth going back.

Korean buffet (or should I say Canadian interpretation of Korean-style buffet lest I offend some folk ;)):

Seoul Garden in Market Village. They use charcoal! That cancer-causing method of cooking really tastes yummy!

Buffet on the weekend is $15.95 adult.

Question: so Kal Bi and Bul Go Gi are not true Korean dishes? Or is it the fact that everything is thrown on a grill generally that makes it not authentic Korean?

[billyfo]

damn, I didn\'t go out for a while. we have Korean buffet????? seems now everything is \"all you can eat\".

have you guys try \"Dai Hak Horn\" next to Scotia bank in Market Village? it also quite good for my taste.

Kalbi and boolgoki are real Korean dishes.

[oroboru]

Hello all; new member here.

Well, I seem to meet most of the requirements (except for the dating one... alas woe is me to never have been the company of a loving lady).

Cantonese, BTW.

I am personally quite skeptical about the Asian restaurant market... too many posers out there, particularly in the buffet segment. No Indian person will actually go and eat at their restaurants, and same goes with my Thai friend, and you\'d never find me eating at a Chinese buffet.

I swear Chinese buffets give Caucasian people a really piss poor idea of what real Chinese food is. When asked for a recommendation, I\'d pass them along to more \"traditional\" restaurants.

[Fuman]

welcome oroboru, thought u were japanese with your nickname.

I gotta argee buffets like buffet king are crap.

Jap buffets are the only buffets i go to.

gofortea, destiny(depends which ones), a place for us.

places like teashop 168 just doesnt do it for me, and when refering to bubble tea place im assuming ur talkinga bout the kind were u can go into the place, sitdown, and \"chill\". however the best bubble tea place for just ordering take out MUST BE first markham place\'s tasy house! haha i love that place, so many cards -___________________-\

btw i HIGHLY RECOMMEND gofortea in commerce valley and a place for us in first markham place. lol then again im somewhat biased because of sentimental value that these particular places have for meeeee :D



I consider myself a BT connoisseur. Years of experience have fine tuned my discriminating palate. The BT poseurs are exposed by their creation of vile and slimy pearls of glutinous garbage, while the best of the best concentrate on perfecting those little globules of tapioca into chewy sensations of oral delight.

In all of my travels, none beats Bubble Tea & Me in First Markham Place. I discovered this fantaslamismic joint only last month, and have been back at least four or five times. That\'s alot considering Daddy can no longer inhale carbohydrates as he once did while he was younger without fear of developing that medical condition commonly known as \"love handles\".

i asssssssume most asians have a cell phone, so... what cell phone are u currently using?

im using my trusty old v60g. got it when it just came out on rogers. paid 300+ bucks for it -_________-. buut its all good, i switched from my t616, both which i am actively using.

[majic]

http://www.mobile-review.com/phonemodels/motorola/image/v635.jpg

i used to have a panasonic TX-311 - it was great for making calls, that\'s it (TDMA)

recently i switched over to moto v635 after a lot of research. it\'s GSM (quad band) world phone, with:
+ 1.23mpix camera (nice but not essential - takes good pix during the day, leaves a lot to be desired at night)
+ internal MP3 player - found it useless (slow and cumbersome, so i bought an iriver.. lol)
+ crazy tiny memory called transflash (v635i will come with 512 mine came with 32) enough for 100pix or so
LESS than half the size of an SD card

http://sandisk.com/download/photos/OEMPhotos/Industrial/transflash-fam-w-adap.jpg

+ bluetooth enabled
+ speakerphone
+ external display (4K colours, nothing like what the pictures online show)

overall, i\'m pretty happy with it although i\'m never going to use half the features on regular basis - i guess that\'s how cellies are these days.

-expandable memory using Transflash cards
-Java enabled MP3 player and web browser, also plays MP4 video files
-MP3 or polyphonic ringtones
-large screen (240x320)

-video camera
-bluetooth
-AGPS (too bad it doesn\'t work in North America)
-3G technology (too bad it doesn\'t work in North America)
-speakerphone
-voice dial

Picked up an inexpensive Logitech Bluetooth earpiece for only $55 which works great when driving. Gotta love these (unlocked) GSM phones, just pop in a new SIM card and you can use them pretty much all over the world (something that really bugged me with my previous Telus CDMA phones).

Great little cellphone. Here are the pros and cons:

+ 2.0 megapixel camera with autofocus + flash + panoramic pictures + video
+ MP3 player with headphones
+ Memory Stick duo
+ BlueTooth
+ Speakerphone
+ Small and lightweight
+ Long battery life for what it does

- Plastic shell
- Display could be larger
- GSM means only with crappy Rogers
- Speaker could be louder
- SonyEricsson\'s slow UI

[bluntman]

I was looking to get the Samsung D500 as well, but after taking a good look at it, I chose otherwise. I didn\'t like it\'s small screen and the non-expandable memory capacity. I then started to look at the Sony phones, specifically the 637, but after reading a few reviews of I narrowed my search to either Nokia or Motorola. I recently played around with my cousin\'s Sony 700i, nice phone, but certain aspects of it\'s UI seemed slow, especially if retrieving text messages. At first I wanted to get the Motorola e398 but after seeing the larger, nicer screen on the e1000, I chose that one. It wasn\'t only after paying did I notice the Motorola a1000 smartphone with an even larger TOUCHSCREEN and PDA functions. Too bad it was going for $300 more than the one I just bought.

[majic]

what ever happened to cellphones that JUST make phone calls.. lol

seriously.. digicams are always sub par, the UI is slow, file transfer is attrocious at best (except lately via btooth) MP3 playback - why would you want something so cumbersome? and on top of all that they don\'t even cook meals yet - what gives?

i guess they look cool :D and have pwetty colours :) and oh yah.. did i mention they are ridiculously expensive.. check out the price tag on this baby:

I pretty much just use my cell phone as a.... phone! Yeah it\'s too bad that it just has 90mb onboard mem but I don\'t use it anyways. Occasionally snap a pic or a vid but that\'s about it. The great thing about it is the size and that you can still talk without sliding it up. It pretty much has all the features I want:
small size
speaker phone
camera (1.3 megapix isn\'t that bad)
bluetooth (still need to get a headset)
mp3 ringtones!! I love this

There are definitely some better phones out there. soopa yours looks like the shiet!!! damn! Kind of an impulse buy for me... when I saw it slide i was sold.

[Saphress]

ya know this kinda pisses me off... no offence... ironically this had to do with a reply to you Whodilly... HAHA...

This SUCKS... Ya know in 1998 .... in first year at school... I redesigned a phone.... looking EXACTLY like that.... the Slider I called it. Perhaps a little more egernomical for the hand ... but pretty much the exact same. Anyway... I got like a 65% on that project, advising me it was a horrible design... and who would want a slide phone. Piss me right off... DAMMIT!!!

I\'m sorry saphress for rehashing old memories!! Hey I would give you an A++ cause I love the slider!

Damn that\'s a shitty mark btw... I would show the phone to your prof and say \"Look at this! Now change my mark! I could\'ve been rich damnit!\"

back to phone, now a few Asian countries/cities already have 3G, so hopefully our lovely Canadian phone providers will have 3G ASAP.

I would love to try making a video phone call using a pair of 3G phones.

[SoopaBanana]

Majic: 2 megapixel digicam\'s not bad with autofocus... and data cable included uses USB2.0...
Zaku: Jay Chow rocks!!

On 3G: Toronto will never be as advanced in cellular connection than Asian countries for the following reasons:

1. Rogers essentially has monopoly over GSM; no competition to drive up the specs

and yah.. usb 2.0.. i have that too, maybe it\'s just my phone but it\'s really slow (1.0 spec or worse) - maybe it\'s the TF card on-phone-reader? oh well, i use my separate USB Key and my MP3 player for files/music anyway

Speaking of ringtones...what is your ringtone?

[SoopaBanana]

Mine\'s from Family Guy... Quagmire\'s \"Giggity giggity\" thing...

v60g = jay chou - simple love (a friend made it for me, shes piano pro)

[whodilly]

I\'ve got Shapeshifters - Lola\'s theme as my main ringer. but most people have a custom mp3 so i know who\'s callin. Some of them are really cracked out so people think i\'m strange.

Let\'s have a phone meet! Man we\'re such nerds! I love it

I really have no numbers to back this up, but I believe a greater percentage of Asians wear glasses. I certainly do, as do my entire family. Not sure whether it\'s genetic or as a result of diet (or maybe both)...

I hear kids who have diets rich in fatty acids (eg. fats from fish and seafood) are less likely to require glasses...

I may be stereotying, I know, but at least this is the thread to do it in!

Do you wear glasses?

[wtom]

I think you mean to ask if we, the asians here, wear corrective lenses? Contact lenses or glasses here, depending on my mood.

[Fuman]

no corrective lens, over 1/2 my friends do not wear corrective lens.
Maybe as I age that\'ll change.

[Candyman]

Of all the hundreds of thousands of asian people I\'ve met in my life, I can only remember one person who never needed glasses. He\'s 31 and still has 20/20 vision. I don\'t think I\'ll likely ever meet another asian person over 20 who doesn\'t need glasses (except with the assistance of laser surgery)

I wear glasses, never needed contacts as I\'m only 1.25/1.25, don\'t need them all the time.

[bluntman]

I buy frames and put those plain lenses in them to be \"part of the crowd\". ;)























Just kidding...contacts for me, I\'m as blind as a bat without them.

[Xenon]

After all this time.... I never knew we had an Asian Thread :sarc

And to continue on, ya i wear contacts/glasses.

As for my chinese name... I\'ll write it up and post it....

What\'s your favorite Asian dish? Can be from a restaurant or something you make yourself.

Mine is Grandfather Smoked Chicken (from Magic Wok on 14th/Kennedy).

Mmmmmmmmmmm....

[Whos ur dadd]

And you will be banned from this thread if your answer is Sweet and Sour Chicken Balls from Manchu Wok.

[chinsterr]

or lemon chicken :p

lol i swear, all \"non-asian\" love that stuff .. personally, i think its rancid.

hrmmmm .. i really like shark-fin soup *the real stuff*


Chinsterr

[wtom]

How about dishes almost any average-joe family can eat on any given meal? :D

Can\'t call them dishes but two \"street side\" items that are distinct in Hong Kong;

Smelly Tofu
Woon Jai Chi (street side fake-shark-fin soup)

God I miss these two items ... I might just go back to HK next yr just to have some! Flight ticket vs Turbo ... :p

i heard that stinky tofu is banned from street stuff in HK , something about driving the tourists away... any truth to this ? (but maybe not in china)

The first time i caught a whiff of stinky tofu, i knew it had to be it! Literally half a block away. Got some and wow loved it. Yes it stinks.

I don\'t know about being banned in HK but when I was there during \'04 X\'Mas and \'05 New Years, I got them from Mong Kok, street side.

[SoopaBanana]

Hmmm... I think I\'ll have to do this in genre:

HK Styled Dim Sum - Shrimp Dumpling (from the dim sum place at Finch / Don Mills)
Shanghai Styled Dim Sum - Pork-filled dumpling with soup in it (from Ding Tai Fong at First Markham)
Taiwanese Styled Dim Sum - Spicy Chicken Nugget (available from any bubble tea place)
Street Styled - Curry fish balls
Expensive Stuff - Shark-Fin filled Wonton

[Whos ur dadd]

Where\'s the best soy bean pudding? I head there\'s a factory on Silverstar (?) that makes some good stuff...

Or a restaurant?

The best I ever had was in Taiwan. One of those open air markets. So silky smooth and creamy... mmmmm.

Mahjong Mom is asian equivalent to the American Soccer Mom :)

Wide angle rearview mirror? I was interested to pick one up but after checking out the factory rearview and seeing how it\'s already providing the full view out the back (hatch) window, I saved myself the $15 or $20 for some good peking duck. :p

[SoopaBanana]

Those wide angled rear-view mirror\'s pretty useful... Never bothered checking blindspots now \'cuz there isn\'t one ;)

After you attend the car control school, you\'ll know how to use the factory mirrors properly to not have a blindspot as well. So many people on the streets have their mirrors set incorrectly (the side mirrors).

As for Taiwanese food. Isn\'t Metro Square (Warden/Steeles) all taiwanese. There\'s one place there that sells a mean crab dish for like $10. Everything is served with like 40 red peppers. & They have smelly Tofu

There\'s a Taiwanese restaurant at Yonge/401 - I pass by it almost every day. I\'ve never tried it though.

Shouldn\'t most bubble tea places offer Taiwanese dishes?

[vanpatrick81]

damn, my whole morning at work was just spent going through this lounge. :p :p :p

also made me want a cellphone, hungry, thinking of getting new sun glasses, hungry for some fish balls (the one they sell in the philippines, filipino guys would know what i\'m talking about), wishing i was in taiwan, hungry for some soy pudding (also available in the philippines and a chinese restaurant here in brampton), and finally some smelly tofu. whew, that was a long sentence. hahahahaha :p :p :p

hmm, and lastly i\'m chinese that lived in the philippines. is there anybody here who\'s a ***ien?:hoho

Hey, a friend (and her family - her mother is still there too) of mine is Chinese but was (I believe) born and raised in the Philippines.

Good Lord, I tried fish balls for the first time this past summer because my cousin had a craving for them. I took her all the way to Sheppard and Markham because that was the only place I knew where to get them. I did not enjoy them at all. I was intrigued because I saw them all over the place in Manila but I was leary to try anything sold streetside.

OMG that\'s my favorite Taiwanese dish!! To be honest with you, there\'s not a single place serving good \"oh ah me schwa\" in TO... But if you must have it, you might want to try this place: Old Lee\'s Beef Noodle, just past Midland on Sheppard... I wouldn\'t say that it\'s the best there, but at least it\'s a start... lol

EDIT: Btw the name of the restaurant is the direct translation from Chinese... I doubt that\'s the English name... lol

No it\'s not... Most of the younger generation from Taipei may not be able to speak Taiwanese, but not from the rest of Taiwan.

Interesting. I\'ve been to Taiwan once but that was many years ago - don\'t remember too much from the trip apart from the fact that the food was great! I\'d love to go again someday.

Get me the name, bro! I can\'t read Chinese (except for my own name and the numbers 1 to 10)!

lol... *sigh* I\'ll swing by that restaurant the next time I\'m in that area...

On Sat I asked my Taiwanese friends for a good place for the oyster noodle thing, and Metro Square came up. Go to the food court of Metro Square (near Warden on Steeles), and go to the booth closest to the parking lot window. That place is owned by Taiwanese and has a lot of great Taiwanese dimsum.

Isn\'t that the stuff that comes in small little cubes that comes in a jar, stinks, and you eat it with Congee?

Try Soeul House just past Yorkdale at Dufferin and Orfis Road. Can\'t get any more authentic than this place. The Bulgogi and Kalbi are their specialty.

[bluntman]

I went to a Korean BBQ place on Sheppard right at Nugget (west of Markham Rd). It was the first time I ever went to one (I don\'t get around much) and I must say that it wasn\'t bad. At the time it was all you can eat (chicken, seafood and meat...soft drinks included) for only $18. The only thing I noticed odd was that they didn\'t seem to have one of those City of Toronto Department of Health Inspections signs posted in their window. :(
