This is a store with a bunch of stuff to buy for your kitchen, and there is a kitchen in the back where they make the best handrolls and chirachi bowls.

Restaurant Kam Shing - Montréal

These are the best soup dumplings, and their spicy sauce is my favourite. They have a few locations around the city now and they're always busy!
Sammi & Soupe Dumpling

Havne't been for a proper meal, but have gone for drinks + snacks. The fries and brussel sprouts are addicting, and I will definitely be back to try out their main courses…
Knox Taverne
