So Good Restaurant

Leave it to the Asians to come up with weird names for restaurants right?  The names never really make sense or match what their Chinese name of the restaurant.  So Good Restaurant is a small hole in the wall type Hong Kong style cafe that most people would drive by and not even notice.  And honestly, I was almost not going to write a post about them.  If you go on Yelp, there aren't that many reviews for them.  And that is exactly why I decided that I would post about them.  These small types of restaurants where you get quick, cheap cooked meals, most people would just overlook them.  I've had friends ask why I bother going to Hong Kong style cafes and order breakfast from there because it can be done at home.  My response is usually, any meal that you typically go out for you can technically make at home too, just takes time.  Also my hubby enjoys these types of breakfasts, so it's his treat.  I have other friends that wonder why I would blog about these cheap restaurants, because in their minds blogs are only worthy of expensive fancy places that do weird things with food.

So Good Restaurant is open for breakfast lunch and dinner.  But I've only gone for breakfast/brunch.  Prices are low, so don't expect super high calibre dining, but it's decent cooked food.  One thing that diners may have to get over is the appearance of the place.  I've seen Yelp reviews say that the restaurant is not clean.  Thats not true.  The place is a bit older but it's not dirty.  I've eaten in restaurants that have stickier table tops in Toronto.

As we typically go for breakfast/brunch, we tend to order off of their all day menu.  It usually consists of eggs and toast, noodle soup with some protein, and coffee/tea for around $6.  The day that I took the pictures, I ordered pork & preserved veggies with vermicelli with scrambled eggs & toast.  The hubby ordered chicken wings & instant noodles with fried eggs & toast.  Friends ordered luncheon meat on instant noodles with fried eggs & toast, and beef brisket on rice noodle.  Portions were decent sized, and taste is what you typically expect at a Hong Kong style cafe.  Usually when you order instant noodles, the prices of the dishes are higher, but it was quite low here.  The milk tae is pretty decent as well  And service was friendly.  A rare find at a Chinese restaurant.  Since then I have frequented So Good Restaurant quite a few times.  I thought I'd share this place with my parents.  Turns out they've been coming for years!
