Kam Tong - Carte

We recently visited Kam Tong for the second time during our vacation from the US. The food was delicious, the staff was friendly, and the service was quick. We especially enjoyed the tasty fried duck dish.

I had dinner here twice. The roast meats are excellent, especially the roast pig and duck. The soups are also delicious. It's a bit expensive compared to what we would pay in Brooklyn, but the service was friendly and nice. Voir le carte

FOOD POISONING!! Avoid at all costs. I should have been worried when I thought I saw a rat run out of the kitchen. But you think no, I 've eaten here before. It 'll be ok. Should have just left. Bad service, sub average good and food poisoning. This place used to be great. Now it 's a disaster. To be avoided.

After a bad experience down the street where we couldn't even get seated, we came upon this place and WOW! Superb food! The duck was amazing! They did a special fried rice for me as I have some dietary restrictions. The service was the utmost professional, friendly and prompt. Everyone was happy to discuss the restaurant and food. We will be back this week for dim sum! Thank you Kim Tong for turning our first night dinner from a bad experience to a truly delicious one! See you in a few days!!

Went here today on a Wednesday night. Upon walking in, no one greeted us. With confused faces, we started looking for a seat and finally caught eye attention of one of the waitresses. She sat us and gave us the menu. Another waitor shortly came up to us afterward and asked us for drinks. We said water and he asked if we'd like sparkling or still. I said tap and he said he would come back to us. (Not sure if he did not hear me) We skimmed through the menu. The waitress was able to provide us with some recommendations. I was looking forward to the pineapple bbq pork buns but unfortunately they stop making them at 5pm. I settled on a rice and braised pork. Both were very disappointing, rice was... Voir le carte

I absolutely love Kam Tong. It is one of my 2 favourites on this street crowded with a surfeit of Asian restaurants. Their dim sum menu in the afternoon is large, comprehensive and very tasty. They even offer part of their dim sum menu later in the evening for dinner. I heavily recommend the pumpkin shaped fried dumplings and the pork ribs with fermented black beans is outstanding. They have sweet dim sum too which are a lovely way to end your meal. From their main menu, I am most excited about their chicken tom yum soup. Most tom yum soup have shrimp/prawns in their stock. Since I'm allergic to that, I've had to content myself with poor attempts of this superbly flavoursome soup at home. So...

Kam Tong is under new management and their new manager actually sent me a message through Yelp informing me of this and inviting me to dine again and see if things had improved after my last less than wonderful meal This evening, I popped in for a quick bite. I made in with 5 minutes to spare til the 5pm deadline for ordering dim sum. This could have led to my initially rather curt greeting but they visibly relaxed through my visit I ordered a trio of dishes Assam curry chicken puff, Thai marinated chicken feet and Shanghai pork buns. Coming from different sections of the kitchen, it would show off the breadth of any improvements they had made to the dim sum menu Overall, there was much more...

When in Rome, do like the Romans goes the saying. When in Chinatown, do like Chinese , I say. If that means summoning the waiter by simply waiving your hand, or even snapping fingers, so be it. If that means ignoring chintzy decor and dirty looks (there goes another Gaijin , so be it. If that means ordering 57 dishes of the most amazing tantalizing delicious food, whereas you can only eat no more than 7 dishes, so be it. True happiness comes from within, and that 's why my dear aunt used to say When you 've eaten, your soul becomes kinder . Mind you, good food isn 't easy to find. Good CHINESE food? Oh, mate, you 're asking for the moon! But, here, at Kam Tong, good food is simply an underst... Voir le carte
