Markham is full of restaurants and The Hubby and I are always trying out new places with his parents. Either new to us, to them or both. Recently, we stopped by Bowl Kee, a restaurant in Peachtree Plaza that has been around for years and specializes in clay pot rice bowls. The last time I had this dish was in Hong Kong last year at a small shop on the street. While the rice hotpot at Bowl Kee turned out to be quite delicious, a few of the other dishes faltered.
Hot Pot Rice. Bowl Kee has been around since the early 2000's and popular for its hot pot rice. It takes a while so its best to order it as soon as you arrive before you decide on other dishes. Vancouver crab with fried garlic is another popular dish here although I've never had it. I always order the spicy squid which they do well. If you dont plan to order hot pot rice there are better options in the plaza, eg. Power King and Keungs. It's also great for the late night crowds, open from 5pm until late (4am I think).
Lot of different kinds of clay pot rice. We have ordered pork with salty fish and ribs with Chinese sausage. Both taste very good with slightly burned rice at the boot of the pot (which is a good thing 😄). Other dishes is about the same as other Chinese restaurants. Waiting time for clay pot rice is long but you won’t be disappointed. Also you can’t stay there for too long as there are people waiting to be seated all the time.
