We were waiting for the BBQ next door and saw a sign. A fake shark fin soup with fry noodle combo for $6.50. I thought the price is reasonable and I wanted a quick snack. We didn't expect much but for the price, what the heck.
When we get the food, it was a nice surprise. Fake shark fin soup is not the best but reasonablely good. It has the right texture and acceptable amount of food within. The real surprise is the fey noodle. It has been sat for a while but it still has a bit of the wok feel. The taste is right and the noodle is still chewy not soggy at all. The amount of noodle they piled into the small container was the real treat. Jam right fully up to the brim.
I have always wanted to try this place but almost never has the time and chance. I will give it another try next time.

I had a fantastic lunch today at Yan Can Cook. I love ma po tofu but I also don't eat meat. So the restaurant made me some ma po tofu without the meat included. And spiced the dish up for me (though I could have used a little more spice!).
The woman working at the cash was very kind and enquired if I was still OK with the oyster sauce in the dish, which I really appreciated.
My tofu was very delicious, and good value with a huge portion for under $20.

The prices here are UNBEATABLE. 6$ for a box of Chow Mein? Yes please. So much variety, too! I order my favorite beef noodle dish here every time I'm in Markham. Yan Can Cook is definitely not as consistent as the higher-end restaurants, but I really can't complain about the price.
My family loves the fried squid, although it's a hit and a miss. The portions are also really big. Three boxes of food costs 35$ (pretty rare in THIS economy) are enough to feed five people in my experience.
I'd totally recommend this place for a quick, cheap meal. The man and woman at the cash are so sweet and friendly.

Dirty dirty dirty, very bad hygiene, the dirt in the front counter has been there for years, imagine how the kitchen looks like

Truly a classic spot! Been coming here since I was a kid and it’s still delish and affordable.
I always get the curry fish balls for a lil snack when I’m in the area. I enjoy that they give you toothpicks to eat with it’s a cute touch!

Fair price around 11 dollars with a drink too. One of the better options in the food court.
Chester Lo
Good food, lot of variety. Have been eating it for years, the snacks like the fish ball is $5 and tastes great with all the sauces.
Great little food court. The flavors was there. Just missing the wok hey. Was a little disappointed with the price.

We think Yan Can Cook is one of the best value restaurants with a wide variety of delicious dishes! We ordered fresh meat wonton rice noodles for $8 and salt and pepper pork chop with a drink/soup for $10. Everything is freshly made and full of Hong Kong flavour! The salt and pepper pork steak is tender and not very salty, and you won’t feel thirsty after eating their food! The dry-fried beef rice noodles has a wok-like flavor and is not greasy at all, it’s just right. For someone like me who is sensitive to MSG, it’s really good to eat here!
The cashier & floor staff members kept a smile on their face, remained polite and entertain my request of what I ordered(less soup😛), and efficiently handled each customer’s order!

They are very rude, I asked to change my meal cause I couldn’t eat they refused and did not reimburse me, their customer service is very bad and rude, please refrain from going there. I was their daily customer and now I never even think of going there. If you do order ask what’s in the ingredients because they will not tell you. Also it’s not hygenical inside kitchen.
