Mark's Restaurant — Restaurant in Minden Hills

Went to Marks for lunch today. Was in Minden and asked locals for restaurant suggestions. All spoke very highly of Marks Chinese restaurant. Outside is dated, boring and really not very inviting. I never would have stopped there if I was driving by. Inside main part was dated but nice. Waited for a waitress to seat us as she was attending to a seniors group that goes there every month.

We passes a few Chinese restaurants on our drive from Fenelon Falls and would...

I have a weird fascination with slightly oft-kilter Chinese restaurants, and this one certainly fit the bill. Located in what was clearly a German pub, which in turn used to probably be a local single house, this spot is just....odd. I do like how it does away with silly overtly "Chinese" names like China Dragon, or some other nonsense. The food is very regular Canadian-Chinese food, something quickly disappearing from big cities like Toronto where authentic Chinese food is taking over. I also enjoy that they have two lunch specials, either a Canadian menu or a Chinese menu lunch special, so whatever you're in the mood for, Mark's is there to help. Nice lady too who worked there. Ordered a pretty decent General...
