Toronto’s Must-Try Quick Bite: Hana Don (No Regrets!)
📍 Location: Next to Fairview Mall 🍱 Why It’s Worth It On a lazy holiday week, Josh and I stumbled into Hana Don after shopping at Fairview Mall. While the mall’s small, this no-frills Japanese spot hit the spot—fresh, affordable, and perfect for a quick refuel! 🌟 What We Ordered 1️⃣ Salmon Avocado Don 🍣🥑 • Not mind-blowing, but solid! Fresh salmon chunks, creamy avocado, tamago (egg), nori, and sushi rice. Simple but satisfying. 2️⃣ Tsukiji Don (Josh’s Pick!) 🐟🍤 • Seafood lover’s dream: Salmon, scallop, white fish, squid, tamago, and fish roe. Josh devoured it—scallops were buttery and fresh! 3️⃣ Momo Box Sushi 🔥🥭 • Torched salmon + mango salsa = sweet-spicy twist! Avocado tucked inside the rice added creaminess. Unique and tasty! Other Don Picks We Eyed: • U & I Don (Sea urchin & fish roe)—next time! • Price Range: 18-28 per bowl (great value for freshness). 💡 Final Verdict ✅ Fresh ingredients, no skimping on fish quality. ✅ Casual & quick—ideal for mall pit-stops. ✅ Mango salsa sushi was the sleeper hit! “For a simple donburi craving, this is a no-regret stop!” 🚀 #TorontoEats #JapaneseFood #DonburiLove #HiddenGem #FairviewMall
