A painting of me

Swatow is my favourite spot on Spadina for Chinese food. ⇒

   30 January 2007, mid-morning

When Victor first took me here he made me promise not to tell anyone about it because it was already so busy. My friends like to go to Rol San, which is also pretty good. (Rol San is much bigger, and probably better at dealing with drunk people.)

This is a post from my link log: If you click the title of this post you will be taken the web page I am discussing.

  1. I think Rol San is popular because it can accommodate so many people. I don’t think the food is that bad. It really isn’t as good as Swatow though.

  3. Bah! What a noob. She obviously does not know how to order for white people at Swatow. Who orders up so many dishes on rice? It’s not lunch time. This review has nothing of interest to offer, and I am not impressed by this person.

  4. I figured it was time to let people know the score, seeing as how it seems everyone knows about the place now. Once it’s in BlogTO, it’s no longer a cool secret spot. Foods still damn good though.

  5. Well its never really been a secret, but it’s nice to keep it off the radar of people that don’t know what they want, then they can just go to any other Chinese restaurant in the area. =)

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
