Kwan Specialty Reviews
I had accompanied a friend to this place, not knowing what it was all about but I quickly discovered that it was a pretty cool spot, featuring tons of frozen dim sum and other treats to take home. They have lots of variety - something for everyone.
Besides frozen food, they also have other treats - dried foods, candies, bamboo baskets, wedding favours, and lots more. Prices seemed quite reasonable. I'll definitely have to come back to explore more of their offerings!

Kwan Specialty offers high-quality dim sum at a reasonable price, with the option to buy in larger quantities for later. Their egg tarts and gelees remain consistently enjoyable. They have a good variety of frozen dim sum, traditional Chinese dishes, and soups. Refrigerated Chinese desserts, such as sweet black sesame and almond soups, are also available. The frozen dim sum includes popular items like har gow, siu mai, and dumplings, all handmade and made in-house, making them very delicious. Their ready-to-eat frozen soups and entrees are perfect for busy days. Customers can enjoy a proper Chinese tea from a selection of loose-leaf teas like pu'erh and jasmine, along with a small bakery section that offers fresh egg tarts and buns—an absolute treat. While some frozen items, like dumplings, may have inconsistent freshness, purchasing with cash offers a $5 voucher for every $50 spent. The interior is clean and well-organized, providing a peaceful environment for browsing and enjoying a tea break. Customers can enjoy takeout without the need to tip or pay taxes, and it offers a convenient, line-free experience. However, delivery options to downtown are not currently available. Despite the friendly environment, some staff members have been noted as consistently unfriendly and mean, which can make interactions uncomfortable. Overall, Kwan Specialty is a great spot for those who love discovering hidden gems for high-quality Asian food.
