Yin Ji Chang Fen Inc

If you’re claustrophobic and have an aversion to sitting in close quarters, Yin Ji Chang Fen is not a restaurant to visit. Each table’s real estate is used to capacity – during peak periods a table that fits four will not be given to three – so it’s best to go in even numbers.<br/ <br/ What makes people return is Yin Ji’s chang fen or rice noodle rolls. Unlike the versions you find at dim sum, Yin Ji’s is thin yet still retains a hint of elasticity to resist breaking. Each order arrives as one massive rice noodle that’s filled with toppings.

Steamed rice noodle rolls (or Cheung Fun) is one of my favourite dim sum dishes. I love the slippery texture, the sweet and salty sauce and the savoury fillings. Yin Ji Chang Fen is a long standing chain from China specializing in the dish that recently opened up in Markham. They’re famous for their handmade sheets of rice noodle and rolling technique that results in a super thin wrapper, which still has a great chewy texture. I’ve been wanting to visit for awhile and finally dragged along Stephens’s family while his siblings were home over the holidays.

For this foodie lunch adventure, my colleagues and I were hungry and wanted something to eat. I had a recommendation from @Richiebearington to try out this place on Steeles and Warden. The restaurant suggested was Yin Ji Chang Fen with the name mostly meaning rice noodle roll. If a restaurant places emphasis on a dish within their name, it must be good right? To verify the claim, we ventured out to this place for food!

Ok I liked that the wait wasn’t too long on a busy Sunday lunch hour and the wait wasn’t long at all til the food arrived. Service was fast. But what about the food? Maybe average. Taste was good; but the food had no form. It was messy looking. I’ve had better; and prettier presentation. It was served fast but messy.

As a Cantonese, I just wanna say that I felt I'm at home. The tastes are really similar to the ones I had in Canton(Guangzhou). I will definitely come back when I go to Toronto next time. Hope they can have a branch in Vancouver soon!

We wanted food and tea, but the tea is the hit here. The food is fairly good, but if they made that part even better, this place would have a better reputation and grow more.

There's more choices here than the common shop. Which is very attractive to me. I did try a few rolls and congee. They are all quite tasty and different.

Good ingredients good cooks. Very reasonable price with good service. One rice noodle roll will make a good snack for any person at any time.

shrimp congee with a side order of deep fried steamed buns (condensed milk included) was a great way to start breakfast
