Super Pho Challenge at WonderPho! July 25 & 26

If you have read my blog over the years, you may have come across the time that I completed the 72 OZ steak challenge and received a free steak.  I even documented an epic training regime where I ate a ton of cabbages to prepare for the challenge.  I could never do that again.. LOL. Instead, we’re throwing down Toronto’s first Pho Challenge!  The Super Pho Challenge is happening at WonderPho Restaurant on July 25 & 26.  You get 15 minutes to finish the entire bowl (the bowl must be empty.. Soup too!).  The Reward: $38 Super Pho is free, T-Shirt, Your photo on the Super Pho Hall of Fame wall, ultimate bragging rights!!! Everyone is welcome to try the challenge… If you’re not a big eater, come cheer on your friends attempting the Superpho challenge.  $10 pitchers available during the challenge!

Only available July 25 & 26
Sign Up by calling WonderPho @ 647-352-5777 


If you do not finish the bowl, you will risk looking like a fool and will have to pay for the $38 bowl of Super Pho.  The challenge is difficult but not impossible. You can see exactly how the Super Pho looks in the picture, and exactly what is in it.

Chinese Halal Restaurant

lamb, lamb, lamb... Chinese Halal Restaurant is the place to go if you want to try some delicious chinese halal food traditional to regions of North West China.  You can enjoy traditional spicy kebobs/skewers here, along with many different Beef and Lamb dishes, but you won't find any pork in this restaurant.  This is a nice place to come with friends to explore and tastes some of their tasty food.  The Beef Noodle Soup pictured above consists of handmade noodles that taste delicious ($5.99 + tax on the lunch special menu!). They specialize in making Lamb and there are many must-try items incuding: Lamb skewers, Mini Spicy Lamb Chops, Lamb Noodle Soup and Fried Sesame Lamb Chops (my favourite)!  With all this meat, its nice to choose one of their delicious chinese veggie dishes to share.  Chinese Halal Restaurant has lots of seats, and getting a table for large groups is usually not a problem.  It is located at the plaza at Leslie & Finch in North York and the prices are pretty cheap for the amount of yummy food you get.
