Toronto Day 1: Lunch at Rol San in Chinatown

Ben and I had a short vacation in Toronto and Ottawa on the last week of May this year. We take the opportunity to meet up with friends there.

J&C picked us up from the airport and brought us to Chinatown for lunch.

J&C brought us to Rol San which serves dim sum all day. Parking is very difficult here as C took over 20 minutes to find a parking after he dropped us off at the restaurant.

The restaurant was quite busy even at late afternoon. Toronto is indeed a metropolitan city as there are a variety of people from different cultures dining in a dim sum restaurant.

Supreme fried rice for filler since it was already late in the afternoon and we just decided this will be our “lunchner” (lunch and dinner).

R&C, thank you for the lunch and it was great to meet up. After lunch, we took a walk in Chinatown before we headed back to R&C’s place in Missisausaga.

    We enjoyed Rol San last year.

    Make you go to the Bata Shoe Museum, it was actually 1 block away from ROM. 🙂
