Take-out @ One2 Snack
6:55 AMOne2Snacks is a family-run restaurant hidden in the plazas around the Midland and Sheppard area. I wouldn't have known of this place until a few foodies and colleagues suggested that I visit here. It's very rare to find a passionately family run Malaysian food restaurant in Toronto.
Atmosphere:
Stall restaurant with very limited seating (4 seats along the front window and maybe 2 on each side of the restaurant. This tiny restaurant fills up with lots of customers and orders take about 30-45 minutes on a given busy day!
TIPS:
Order ahead of time (30-45 minutes) and come to pick up the food! Certain foods are only available on the weekends!

Food Comments:
Wok hay is a Cantonese phrase used to describe a particular essence and aroma that is created in a dish when authentic stir-frying is performed. “Hay” means “energy” or “breath”; therefore, “wok hay” means “the energy or breath of a wok”. For this food trip, my colleague suggested the Wat Tan Hor as a great example of the "Wok Hay" principles. It was actually very good in aroma and texture. Everything of the ingredients blended together nicely.
We also got the Chicken Satay skewers which were good (slightly burnt at the tip) with peanut sweet sauce. While I was waiting for the orders, I decided to order the desserts since they were weekend only available. I have to agree with my colleague that the "kuih seri durian" was the most awesome dessert. I also got the "grass jelly" drink. It was simple drink with sugar, ice and floating grass jelly.
Lastly, for my lunch, I ordered the Nasi Lemak with Chicken Curry. The dish was very simple by design but full of flavours (fragrant rice dish cooked in coconut milk and pandan leaf).
I definitely would come back.
