First Markham Place is one of the best Asian shopping plazas outside Toronto

There are many Asian strip plazas sprinkled in and around Toronto, but none are quite as iconic as First Markham Place. A hub for many in the Asian community, this plaza goes way beyond its beloved indoor food court and retail stores.

Which is the original Din Tai Fung?

[@thereseamyng]

According to Din Tai Fung owner David Wasielewski, a Taiwanese immigrant, Toronto's Ding Tai Fung is not a part of the Taiwanese chain, although the restaurant's name has the same Chinese characters. The only difference is the English translation - the “fake” one is spelled Ding, the chain leaves off the “g.”
