There's an art to eating Asian Legend's steamed soup filled juicy pork dumplings. You need to pick them up just right, and cross your fingers that neither the juice nor the heat creates some serious mouth damage.

Did I manage to hold them in? Find out in my review of Asian Legend in the restaurants section.

Update: Thanks to a reader tip I have confirmed that since my visit two weeks ago the restaurant has changed its name to Witches Table.

Soban Witches Table may be the sort of cutesy place in the mold of cafes found all over East Asia, but does its lengthy menu of noodles, sushi, and other rice dishes put it a cut above the typical Japanese-Korean restaurant in the city?

Sushi places pepper Queen Street in The Beach. After a stroll on the boardwalk I often feel a little peckish and like to settle down for some appetizers at one on my favourites.

At Dynasty, all manner of clientele are ticking off their orders on a small paper menu, eager for piping hot little dumplings to be whisked to their tables. Dim sum makes for a great lazy Sunday brunch alternative.

It's the perfect place when you can't pick between Chinese, Thai, or Vietnamese. Pachira offers plenty of msg free and light on the oil Asian favourites, with authentic touches like hand made dumpling wrappers and fresh chili laced condiments.

There are those who love regular ice cream, and others who swear by the Italian style milk ice. The latter set lovers will be pleased to know that Solferino is making special Valentine's Day flavours. With a lighter smoothness and denser texture, gelato is a great platform for letting its flavour component sing. Chocolate and fruit can shine with intensity, so what of the more intriguing and sensuous sounding specials like Romantic Rose Petal?
