Toronto China Town

The heart of Toronto's China Town is located at Spadina Avenue / Dundas Street West.  I've been to this area for many times but this is my first time taking pictures here.  Not only finding Chinese stuff here, you can also find Vietnam stuff here!

 Installing huge signs like this outside of their stores is a common practise in most Chinese culture.

Traditional Chinese toy which it's pretty hard to find nowadays. For $1.50 those wooden craft chicken can keep you busy for the whole day - I wish I had one of these stuff when I was a kid!

 Exotic fruits - they are mostly imported from South Asia.

Mango~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 Different grades of dried shrimps.  The bigger the shrimp size, the more expensive it is.

 Typical Vietnam food store.

Don't know what this is but it looks good.  Fishcake mochi sandwich??



 Step 1: prepare the dough for the steam buns.


Step 2: flatten the dough and scope some meat in the middle of the dough.

Step 3: wrap it up.

Done!!
