Timing was a bit wonky -- an hour before dinner and by the time we ended (chatting!) I was so hungry. Craved veggie hakka noodles and lollipop chicken. My usual spot was closed (Tuesdays!) so I drove out to Hem's. Num

Hem’s Hakka in Kitchener creates aromatic and flavourful fusion dishes

On the Hakka flavour pendulum, King Street East restaurant’s offerings lean toward Indian, sometimes with a Nepalese spin, writes Jasmine Mangalaseril

After an afternoon spent walking through cold and damp countryside, this vegetarian Hakka spread is hitting the spot very nicely.

Working from my friend's flat in Toronto. Had to run out for some things, and then lunch. Found the Joe Shuster, which some nearby pigeons were guarding. Lunch was takeaway Hakka Noodles and Manchurian Chicken from Khao Hakka Refresh. #Toronto #Superman #HakkaFood
