Kingsway at Royal Oak
More infoIndian Wok runs on genuine enthusiasm; the owner lights up talking about the food, and you taste it before you know why. This is Calcutta-style Hakka cooking at the Royal Oak corner of Kingsway in Burnaby, where Indian spice and Chinese technique produce something neither could manage alone. Order the dry chilli chicken with real wok smoke, plus Hakka chow mein and Manchurian. It's Halal, with a deep vegetarian bench.
Order a spread for two: Calcutta-style Hakka chow mein, dry chilli chicken, and a Manchurian, with the Hakka-style tofu lettuce wraps if you want something to assemble together. Portions run big and it's all meant to be shared, so under-order at first, you can always add more. Don't miss the chow mein, the dish the regulars rave about. It's a small, family-run room open evenings Wednesday through Sunday, so check the day and budget about an hour and twenty.
