  Ah Golden Bowl. I affectionately refer to this restaurant as Golden bowels, because that greasy Chinese food will you know... Make you poo gold. Look don't read too much into it ok? It's a nickname, can we just move on?
  
  The significance of GB is that they deliver. They're pretty quick, the price is pretty good and the quality has been very consistent over the years.
  
  I usually order the spicy shrimp noodles, salt and pepper tofu and orange beef.. The steamed fish is pretty good too.
  
  I don't like eating there for some reason. It's all about delivery. Cash only.

  Super fast and friendly :) great comfort food dishes with hearty and fair portions. There's approximately hundreds of menu options. My recommendation is their general tau or peanut butter dumplings.

  This is the epiphany of fake Chinese food that reminds me why I tend to avoid Asian food in Montreal. Don't get me wrong, I love shareable sub-$10 plates with huge portions. But the food was so covered in starch and gelatinous sauce that we didn't even bother taking out the half-plates that we couldn't finish. Our first impression of the Salt and Pepper Pork Chop was "hey that General Tao chicken is mighty heavy!" (the general tao chicken we ordered arrived later it turned out). A few pieces of the glucose-heavy deep fried meat spelled game over for me, so we were quickly moving on to the MaPo Tofu. It was neither "ma" nor spicy, probably the worst attempt at MaPo Tofu I've ever tasted but at least it was edible. There's a limit to "mild", at some point it just becomes lifeless.
  
  I noticed that the majority of plates coming out of the kitchen were one kind or another of General Tao [insert your meat]. Not to be confounded with actual Chinese cuisine.

  I've been coming to this place for years, or rather, ordering food for take out as it is extremely popular among the locals and simply delicious!
  
  It's a really small restaurant that does have some seating area but it feels extremely cramped if you stay there. The kitchen is also out in the open so you can see the chefs tossing their woks flames and all as well as smell the food as you sit for your meal. Most people come in, give their order and when it's ready - usually 15-20 mins- take it to go.
  
  They have a variety of options ranging from Chinese/Cantonese, Vietnamese and Thai dishes along with your western classics like eggrolls and general tao.
  If you're familiar with asian cuisine and would like a different noodle type or sauce that's not listed, they can probably cook it up just the way you want it.
  My Asian mom would often come in and chat up with the cooks and get a special dish that isn't listed on the menu.
  
  Prices have increased a little in the almost 10 years that I've been going there, but it remains cheap.
  Just to give you an idea, my favorite dish, the "Yang Chow" fried rice used to be around 6 $ back in 2003, and every year it seems to increase by a dollar.
  Portions are very big. This is the kind of restaurant where it is best to order  at least 2 or 3 plates and share.
  
  As per many asian or small businesses I noticed, this place accepts cash only.
