Asian Mix, which is tucked away beneath Safeway on South Beretania Street, is renowned for its selection of roasted meats, Asian-influenced dishes and bubble-tea drinks. It may not be out in plain view, but this hidden gem is definitely worth seeking out for your Asian-food cravings.
Of its popular roasted meats, Barbecue Pork stands out, and it’s easy to see (and taste) why.
Owner Daniel Leung explains that the daily routine for making the pork includes selecting quality meat, marinating it overnight, roasting it and, lastly, coating the pork in a honey mixture to keep the meat tender and juicy until it’s ready to serve.
