Toronto Restaurant Ethnography 2017

Eating is a highly fun activity that you may do at a party, with friends, or even during a candlelit supper with your boyfriend. Some people like eating out, while others prefer cooking at home. Which one do you favor? I prefer eating at buffets since there is a wide variety of options and I can still enjoy my favorite foods. The Mandarin restaurant, which can be found at 2206 Eglinton Avenue East in Scarborough, Ontario, M1L 4S7, is a wonderful option. There is a little flower garden at the entrance to the Mandarin restaurant that is full of vibrant flowers in bloom. The parking lot is located in the back door of the Mandarin restaurant, that Past the main gates, a long, tree-lined path takes customer from the small flower bed to the parking lot.

There are many chandeliers hanging from the ceiling of the Mandarin restaurant, which make the hall shine brilliantly. The pillars of the Mandarin restaurant were painted red and the top of the pillar is carved with golden dragon, that full of Chinese characteristics. The guests are scattered in four compartments that Each one has a unique décor. The waiter led me to the seat, the position in the last row of a plum themed room. All the food is placed in the hall of the marble table. In addition to the conventional hot dishes, there are salads, Japanese sushi, teppanyaki, pancakes, side dishes, all kinds of dessert and pastries, that over hundred delicious dishes on the table.

There are Salad Bar with so many fresh vegetables, fruits, and proteins to choose from, you’ll be able to create your own tasty and healthy salad in a snap! Also, Sushi bar can not to be missed. There are California roll, Spicy salmon roll, Spicy tuna roll, B.B.Q. eel roll, Tempura shrimp roll, Green dragon roll, Las Vegas roll, Salmon avocado roll and Yam tempura roll, that a range of classic and simple, to modern and original sushi rolls, there will be your favorite choice. If you are a vegetarian, then you can choose Avocado cucumber roll, Cucumber roll, Avocado roll, Yam tempura roll, Fried asparagus roll or Crispy bean curd avocado roll. For appetizer, I will choose to drink a bowl of soup fend off the cold and warm stomach. The Hot & Sour Soup, Egg Drop with Mushroom Soup, Wonton Soup and Chicken Noodle Soup are my favorite’s soup. As a Chinese, the main meal must be rice. Except the most common steamed rice there still have Plain Fried Rice, Chicken Fried Rice, Pork Fried Rice, Beef Fried Rice and Vegetable Fried Rice. If you are a meatist, then you must try Honey Garlic Spare Ribs, Sweet and Sour Peking Style Pork, Black Pepper Steak and Kung Pao Chicken which are specialty of Mandarin restaurant.

Although the buffet is all you can eat, but can not waste food. The waiter will tell you that if you have more than twenty percent of your food on your table after your meal ends, you will have to pay extra money. Every time you finish a dish, the waiter will come over to close. In the Mandarin restaurant, lemon water is free, when your glass is empty, you can ask the waiter to give you a refill. I recommend reservation first because after six o'clock You need to wait in line. The most expensive time is the evenings at weekend. However, they do offer snow crab legs and better cuts of beef at weekend dinner. The Mandarin restaurant is suitable for a wedding party and Birthday party. The waiter will clean whole compartment and help you with site layout when you make an appointment for the party. It is worth mentioning that the Mandarin restaurant will provide free audio equipment. You can also order a wedding cake or birthday cake in Mandarin restaurant. I saw the waiter holding a candle-filled cake into the opposite compartment and the birthday song of children came from their compartment. The opposite compartment was holding a birthday party. It may be a little girl's birthday party because I saw that birthday cake look like a princess, a Barbie in the middle of the cake that was wearing a pink princess dress and a Little Crown on her head. There are adults, senior and children come to the party. They have common ground which is everyone brings their own gifts.

If you prefer to eat at home, then Mandarin restaurant also will be a great choice for you. They have takeout and delivery service. Especially in the frosty winter you can enjoy their food at home. However, if you want to hold a party at home, then the Mandarin restaurant is your first choice. They offer a party menu. For example, party menu A, 1190 Cals-1240 Cals per serving, perfect for groups of 20 people, include Garden Salad, Dinner Rolls (20), Vegetable Spring Rolls (20 pieces), Golden Fried Chicken Wings (40 pieces), Vegetable Fried Rice, Plain Soft Noodles, Sweet & Sour Spareribs, Beef with Mixed Chinese Vegetables, Honey Twist. The party menu is very convenient and useful for people who are not good at cooking. The “Calories” are a big feature of Mandarin restaurant. Each dish has a corresponding calorie, that customers can choose different food according to their different demand for calories.
