Setting is different, but similar food in my opinion.

Might get flamed for this, but the salad bar at Whole Foods birchmount & 7. Very extensive make your own salad bar, I think their pulled pork is fantastic for example. They also have a bunch of less healthy salad items like corn chips, good gauc. If you are careful about adding just the right amount of food and avoiding heavier stuff you can get a nice variety salad.
This way the parents can keep it healthy, with some falvour and pay by the gram. Might not be the cheapest but you also get free hassle free self refill filtered water, a nice outdoor patio and if they enjoy beer or wine (obviously throws off savings) but they are licensed. Furthermore an LCBO in the plaza and usually free samples in the cheese section if you truly want to be cheap. Also a pizza station some soups and other stuff.
I know its not quite Richmond hill, you could hit longos 7/woodbine which has a similar set up. Say all you want about whole foods that salad bar at whole foods is higher quality.
Just wanted to toss out an alternative to the Chinese Styrofoam take out.

I tend to avoid whole foods because everything is overpriced. I wouldn’t be surprised if the meal was $10+ tax for a small portion

it's done by weight at a fixed price per 100grams for the whole table. I haven't been in a while so it really depends on what you throw on. There isn't a scale so you have to use your judgement. I can usually pull something off for $10-$13 but I've had a friend hit the $17 mark.toronto19850 wrote: ↑ What’s the price for a meal like that?

Recently I was at bay/bloor Manulife centre and the grocery store there is $1.99 per 100gram so whole foods is maybe $2.50 or $3 if I were to guess.

This is not in R Hill but Ninki Sushi at Scotia Plaza ( i work around here) has these end of the day deals. All sushi and hot meals (fried rice, spaghetti) are 50% off. Sushi are like 8-14 dollars, hot food are 8$ regular.
Not sure what time these deals start but i went passed there yesterday around 5:10 and there were lots of choices.

Yeah man. I usually get the 3 meat and I cannot finish it. avoid the char siu pork from the bbq stand on the right side tho. It's been dry the past few times that I've gone.rogerrabbit168 wrote: ↑ go over to First Markham Place, all the food court selections, especially the two bbq meat with rice/noodles, like $5.50, i get so full from it, you also get like a soup with it

Lots of good places in FMP food court besides the BBQ place. I go to the Malaysian one for Laksa and the Japanese one for the Tonkotsu lunch ($7 including pop/miso soup)...they're located side by side in the corner. The Handmade noodle place is also good.....order the chicken leg noodle....you get a whole chicken leg cut up.rogerrabbit168 wrote: ↑ go over to First Markham Place, all the food court selections, especially the two bbq meat with rice/noodles, like $5.50, i get so full from it, you also get like a soup with it

This is the best Taiwanese fried chicken in the GTA. No other place even comes close. Papa Chang's is cardboard compared to this place.

It is pretty good as I have been to this place many times ... the only bad part is there are not many tables to sit at during lunch time.board123 wrote: ↑ https://www.yelp.ca/biz/tai-ping-hsiang-markham-2
