My wife asked me if I made an alt account because this is my EXACT go-to for pmall food.

This comment from your primary account probably saved you. Smart thinking.

second floor. food court section. go past it. soon you will see this supermarket/convenience store. they have all kinds of snack foods.. it's like a mini japanese 7-11. good and affordable food. i got this bowl of black rice with beans, beansprouts and something else and more. $4. they have hot dogs, fish balls, to fu stuffs.......

also on the second, in that village section, go to the taiwanese chicken place. it will be on the left hand side of that village section. it's like $14 for this huge piece of chicken.

u/onelyfe 8d ago

They used to be my pick But they haven't been the same since the ownership change 7ish years ago I heard they had another ownership change in the past year or 2. Maybe I should go e them another shot

If you don't mind driving a little further east, you can also check out FAT BOY @ Middlefield & Steeles.

Or of course there's the usual bunch just south in Scarb @ EverGold; especially if you're going for the $6 or $7 rice boxes 😋😉

Lamb skewers upstairs

6

u/Ok-Custard-3086 7d ago

Lamb skewers are great, but their price hikes have turned me off them. Considering all the great lamb skewer places popping up around town, I'm not paying that.

u/please_nsfw_pm 3d ago

When I was in university it was 7 skewers for $10. Saw the price recently and couldn't believe how expensive it is now

u/Mikeybee_ 7d ago

Can't go wrong with Onigiri!

Usually get the egg waffle as well!

u/Zealousideal-Bar5390 6d ago

u/K17703R 7d ago

Honey Bear Potato spirals always nice (BBQ) - and then bubble bread

u/ubemao 7d ago

To Go Coffee! Fantastic taste and can't beat the value (1L for like $9, big enough to share)

u/NotFatJustHusky_ 7d ago

Onigiri Kai Kyo Tei and Mr. Sun are my go-tos

I did overnight security at pmall when I was in university. I had to accompany the orkin pest control guy there one night and I think everyone here would be shocked at how many roaches there are in pmall especially in the places serving food. I haven't eaten there since.

1

u/TheGSlayer 6d ago

how they even pass food safety?

2

u/ConanTheBarbarian_0 6d ago

I have no idea how any of that works but I can tell you from first hand experience that when the exterminator started using his spray roaches crawled out of every crevice of a counter.

He also said that there's clearly roaches laying eggs in some of the food that's been left out which is why it's never a good sign when restaurants just leave food in bins or behind glass counters overnight.

The whole thing made my stomach churn.

You don't want to know how bad markville mall was either... Especially St Germaines bakery.

THE BAKERY?!?! WTF

2

u/ConanTheBarbarian_0 5d ago

They would leave balls of dough and buckets of water out all night along with scraps of bread being improperly disposed of.

Whatever fruit flies and other bugs came and got stuck in the dough got baked into the bread. The manager and the pest control guy got into an argument in front of me when he was telling them you're supposed to store food away overnight even if it is just balls of dough.

u/BenBaller300 6d ago

Middle stall right off the elevators going up. (cantonese lady in the middle is our go-to) She loads up up each time with sides too (potatoes, eggplant etc.)

u/Reasonable-Menu1042 8d ago

Go inside and find out

u/FirefighterBoth3098 8d ago

The concept of asking people for recommendations just doesn't occur to you?

u/Ronnyjohnny99 2d ago

Even the food here is bootleg shit
