Christopher Wong runs Wong's Asian Cuisine with his wife, Yufeng Lin.'s food guide Suresh Doss joins us every week to discuss one of the many great GTA eateries he's discovered.Below is a lightly edited transcript of Doss's conversation withIt's been sometime since we talked about the cuisine of the Hakka people. It's one of the most diasporic Chinese community groups, with a very long history of migration.
He finally settled at this dining space on Lawrence, taking over a former Hakka spot that I had been visiting since I was a teenager. Some of the best dishes at Wong's are from this generations-old wok that he uses in the kitchen to seemingly turn out incredible dishes within seconds. I think when people think about Hakka Chinese-Indian food they immediately think of chili chicken.This is basically a dish where fried chunks of boneless chicken are tossed into a flaming hot wok.
He aggressively will toss the wok. Every drop of oil and every inch of every ingredient gets kissed by the flame. And it all happens within 30 seconds. You have this thick sauce on the chicken, followed by a pleasing crunch and then the most tender meat inside. I would get that with a rice dish.There are a few fried rice dishes on the menu, I would suggest the mixed fried rice.
There's a good list of things to try, and I have to say that Wong's is still not open for dine-in so be prepared to get these for takeout.Christopher says that he is in a precarious position right now with Wong's. They haven't opened the dining room since the pandemic hit. It was really a wonderful space before. He's had staffing issues, so it's really only him cooking in the kitchen, with his wife managing the front.
And there's a third factor. This part of Scarborough is ripe with development. There are condos popping up everywhere. And there is talk about a condo replacing the plaza that Wong's is in. His lease takes him to 2024.Mis en place at Wong's Asian Cuisine, including Wong's house made chili sauce.
