"First seen" reflects when each restaurant first surfaced in our combined evidence — City permit, public-health inspection, social media — usually within a few weeks of opening, but a permit can lead actual opening by months. How we verify ›
Rice & Flame is a Cantonese kitchen in Scarborough specializing in clay-pot rice, the slow-cooked single-portion dishes that define Cantonese home cooking. · No website yet.
The kitchen's focus is the clay pot itself, rice cooked in a lidded earthenware vessel until the bottom layer crisps into a deeply browned crust, then finished tableside with protein, preserved vegetables, or egg, the heat locked in by the pot's thermal mass. This is not the stir-fried rice of banquet halls the everyday rice of Guangdong households Scarborough's large Cantonese diaspora has long anchored demand for it. The clay-pot rice here arrives still hissing in its vessel, the crust audible when the server breaks the seal, the kitchen's signal dish and the reason to make the trip to Midland. · No website yet.
