Ottawa's Hidden Cantonese Gem: Wok Hey's Legendary White-Cut Chicken

When Ottawa's once-great Cantonese spots faded, Wok Hey Chinese Food emerged as the savior – run by the former manager of Jin Xiang (with all the expertise but none of the decline!). πŸ₯‘ Why It's Takeout-Only Royalty Tiny space (just 2-3 window seats) = order ahead! Same-week repeat customer alert – I ordered 3 times in 7 days for their chicken! πŸ— The Star: Free-Range White-Cut Chicken ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ottawa's undisputed #1 – no contest! Silky-smooth meat + bouncy, gelatinous skin Ginger-scallion sauce: Balanced perfection (not too oily, not too sharp) Only flaw: Slightly less magical as takeout (but still heavenly) πŸ¦ͺ Clams in Black Bean Sauce ⭐⭐⭐ Zero sand (miracle!), but too many shell fragments Sauce needs more wok hei (where’s the garlic?!) Portion size? Massive – great value 🍜 Noodles/Mapo Tofu/Eggplant ⭐⭐ Decent but basic – your standard takeout fare Pro tip: Stick to the chicken and live happily πŸ’° The Damage $67 CAD (cash only!) for enough food to feed a village 7/10 overall – but 11/10 for that chicken πŸ“ 3320 McCarthy Rd #2008, Ottawa #OttawaChineseFood #CantoneseGem #WhiteCutChicken #FoodieFind #TakeoutKing #NoMoreSadTakeout
