Clay Pot Rice in GTA

I know lots of places offer clay pot rice but where would it be best ones or top ones that you would definitely travel for? or recommend?

any new ones that have opened up recently?

*referring to "Bo Jai Fan" - Chinese style..or also known as Hot Pot Rice.

Bowl Kee Restaurant "煲仔記" in New Kennedy Square, Markham still has my top vote among all other restaurants that offer clay pot rice.

Few bloggers URL I Google'd although dated but still valid.

Bowl Kee is the most popular. Open only for dinner. Not cheap but reasonable prices. They time it such that your hot pot rice comes at same time as your other dishes. Good wok hay on dishes and also famous for other hot pot dishes (chicken, tofu, etc).

Best I had was at Lai Wah Heen. $30 or so for 4 ppl.

Good Taste Casserole Rice
8390 Kennedy Road
Markham, ON L3R 0W4

Soup that comes on the side can be very bland... may need to add some salt.

yeap... same side as Blue Ocean Cafe and Sweet Culture Desserts.

Good Taste Casserole doesn't open late and the place may be albeit small but their clay pot rice are very good and reasonably priced..

I have yet to try bowl kee but will soon :)

Hmm... 8 dollars a serving. Cant be that great. Here's a pic from lah wah heen. Reminds me of the cheap clay pots at Pearl Restaurant dim sum place for $3 bucks a pop. The rice is all shoggy and shit. lol. The only authentic clay pots are the ones in HK. The ones on the street markets they light up in winter. Smell them from a block away. Yummm!

New place just opened up in Markham on Woodbine just south of Hwy 7 on west side. Not quite the same as Clay Pot Rice but perhaps you can buy that there. Haven't tried it myself BTW.

Yangs Braised Chicken Rice also says One Pot Wonder

Yeah definitely not the same league as clay pot rice.. the chicken comes in a clay pot and there is a separate bowl of rice (the rice is of low quality).

This place does tons of of takeouts - not sure if there are some specials online or with those delivery companies?
