In the search for a decent Shanghai-style breakfast place, my family in Vancouver appears to have settled on Ningtu Restaurant. Though it's not as amazing as Toh Yuen of the past, it's still pretty good.
chinese donut
hot sweet soy milk
stir-fried rice cake with pork and veggies
sticky rice stuffed with chinese donut, shredded pork, and salty vegetables
pan fried pork buns
The Chinese donut was fresh, hot, and crisp, but a little on the big side; they were tough to handle. The rice cakes were very good - chewy without getting too stuck together. The sticky rice was pretty good but nothing too special. The pan-fried buns were very nice - extremely hot inside, and nicely browned on the bottom. Ningtu isn't quite Toh Yuen but it's still a very acceptable option.
