I’m making what seems to be my annual trip to Toronto, the land of good eats. My sister suggested Malaysian, as she knows of my fondness for Pan-Asian food. SOOS fit the bill. It’s one of many restaurants that adds to the eclectic vibe of Ossington Street.
We started with the prawn crackers with peanut sauce. The star of the dish was definitely the peanut sauce. Next up was the murtabak. It was an Indian pancake stuffed with curry chicken. The garlic sauce was delicious and had overtones of tzatziki,. and went well with the side of curry gravy.
The classic char kway teow came bursting onto my taste buds with some fiery wok hay. The depth of flavour imparted by a seasoned wok was carried by the charred noodles. The laksa was a nice, spicy finish to the meal. I’ve never had laksa leaf, also known as Vietnamese coriander. It was a nice addition to the soup. Lemongrass and a rich curry broth was a good combination.
Service was attentive and the food came out fairly quickly. I would love to go back and try more of the menu.
