Robo Sushi located at 865 York Mills Rd, Unit #9 in North York
March 29, 2019: This is definitely an all-you-can-eat Japanese restaurant worth checking out! Robo Sushi is a restaurant with robots serving you! It’s an idea straight out of Japan or China where automation for everything is all the rage these days. It’s more of a gimmick, but the all sushi and Japanese items that we had during this meal were quite delicious that if you were planning to go to an all-you-can-eat Japanese restaurant anyway, you might as Continue reading

Tenon Vegetarian Cuisine located at 8362 Kennedy Rd in Markham
March 23, 2019: Vegetarian sushi and sashimi found here! Tenon Vegetarian Cuisine (天恩中日素食料理) used to be a regular Japanese restaurant many, many years ago. I remember dining here with my mom at least ten years ago and remembering the visit to be quite mediocre. Since then, they have either been taken over by new management or switched to being a meat-free restaurant.
When we arrived at 12 p.m. on a Continue reading

March 19, 2019: A hungry belly after a day of work called me to Koryo Samgyetang, a Korean restaurant located on Leslie Street south of Steeles Avenue in North York. I had this restaurant on my to-try list after noticing their high reviews for a while but wasn’t in this area often for it to be convenient to go. Finally, I Continue reading
