  Everything noted in the reviews and more. I love that nothing goes to waste- A master butcher holds her cleaver with stoic attention as she deftly chops each serving in front of you. Nothing phases her as crowds of patient and hungry customers crowd the sparse space.  Hanging ducks and impaled chickens adorn the glass case, waiting their turn for the chopping block.
  
  So I've never been here- a cash only stop where I showed $30.00 and got a few loaded boxes of soya chicken, and with the urging of the cashier, a mix of thier famous pork and duck. With a large side of rice, we took it home and tucked into some delicious and fresh offerings. I loved being anlento enjoy the freshness of the meat, the sauce and authentic quality of everything. For the adventurous, grand some duck feet and intestines. Not at that stage yet, but maybe one day! -Zuk

  BBQ pork and rice is one of my family's go-to quick meals so I've had my fair share of the dish at various restaurants over the years. However, Kum Hong remains my top pick for BBQ Pork in Toronto and I've yet to find another restaurant that comes close in over a decade.
  
  Something about the cuts they select and the way they roast the pork provides the most tender, juicy, and succulent BBQ pork you will find in the city. It's amazing how they've made even such a simple dish stand out. The restaurant itself is a bit hidden and more a take-out style although there are a few high stool seats if one desired to dine in.
  
  My only criticism is that they continue to raise the price and a single BBQ pork and rice box now costs almost $10! However, a pound of BBQ pork alone probably provides up to 4x the amount you get in a rice box and costs the same so I'd recommend that option if you're willing to skip on the rice.

  There are better Chinese BBQ restaurants in other parts of Toronto. It has a lot of customers, maybe because there aren't a lot of Chinese BBQ restaurants in the area.
  
  It is not a restaurant. There are two table top seats. It is a take and go establishment
  
  Ordered the BBQ pork - it was standard and didn't blow me away. I prefer Sam Woo located near Bamburgh Circle or even Congee Queen.
  
  Compared to other Chinese BBQ restaurants, the prices are average - not cheap but not expensive.

  A bit of a hole in the wall place, but they've mastered their craft of simple yet perfectly executed roast/bbq meats. Prior to trying this place, I never liked roasted pork because it was way too fatty, dry, and the skin was too oily. This place has the best roasted pork! The skin is perfectly crispy, not overly fatty and the meat is super juicy. I appreciate the attention the lady puts into cutting the meats and trimming off some of the fat. All their bbq meats are good - bbq pork, roasted pork, duck wings, etc. Their rice combos are always so satisfying! As a note, you need to be patient and wait in line for your turn as the lady puts care into her work and takes her time.

  The reviews on this place were stellar. And most were on the barbeque pork and the roast pork. I really like roast duck.  
  So I ordered a whole duck and a half pound of barbeque pork. The duck look good, however, I found it to be a tad dry. Nothing outstanding since duck is a high fat meat anyways but it should be quite moist and it wasn't. The duck was I think $24. So a substantial amount considering I've had moister ones from the Chinese grocery stores.
  The barbeque pork was really, really good! Probably one the best I've tasted in a long time. The thing I liked about it most was the pieces were small so the flavour imbued the pork better.
  It was $10 a pound
  I definitely go back for the barbeque pork but I wouldn't go back for the duck. Hence the 3 stars instead of 4.
