Review: Dinner @ Fire Fly 螢火蟲, Markham


There are no shortages of restaurants at First Markham Place, from Korean to Chinese to Japanese cuisine, you can have your pick.

Tonight we settled on Fire Fly, a Hong Kong style restaurant serving Western food, HK styled.

We ordered the 8 oz Sizzling Angus AAA Steak (鐵板牛排)  and the Baked Pork Chop Rice on Tomato Sauce with Cheese (焗豬扒飯). 

The meal came with soup, dinner roll, a drink, and dessert.  It certainly was a pretty good value.  The Borscht soup came soon after we placed the order.  It tasted pretty good, except I find it weird that there were chunks of lemon with the peel and the end pit still attached.

Next came the drink, I ordered a "Ying Yeung" - mixture of tea & coffee, but it tasted like water.  The steak that followed was also a disappointment.  It looked pretty good on the plate, but the taste wasn't there, and the cut wasn't good, chewy and stringy.  I couldn't even finish the 8oz.

Based on the quality of food, I don't think I'll be returning.

What was ordered

  • 4/5 Good
    • Borsch Soup
  • 3/5 Average
    • Baked Pork Chop Rice on Tomato Sauce with Cheese (焗豬扒飯)
  • 2/5 Ugh I've had better...
    • Lobster Soup
    • Sizzling Angus AAA Steak (鐵板牛排)

Summary

  • The Bottom Line: Service and price is decent, but it does not make up for the unimpressive food.
  • Score: 2.5/5
