Frequently asked questions

Which cuisines does CHOPSBOOK cover?

CHOPSBOOK groups restaurants into nine main cuisines: Hong Kong style, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese, Thai, Vietnamese, Western and other cuisines. Each one is split further, for example Chinese into Cantonese, Sichuan and Shanghainese, and Western into Italian, French and American.

What is the difference between a cuisine and a restaurant type?

A cuisine describes the style and origin of the food, such as Japanese or Thai. A restaurant type describes the format, such as a cha chaan teng, ramen shop, izakaya or cafe. You can filter by both at once, for example izakaya within Japanese cuisine.

How do I find a cuisine in a specific city?

Choose a cuisine or restaurant type on this page, then filter the restaurant list by province and city. Toronto also has dedicated guides for Chinese, Hong Kong style, Japanese, Korean and Western food, with top-rated and newly added restaurants.

How are restaurants categorized?

CHOPSBOOK assigns categories by hand, based on each restaurant's official information, menu and member reviews. If a category looks wrong, you can submit an update request from the restaurant page and it will be corrected after review.
