Get an epic 10-course Summer Tasting Menu at Torafuku for only $40
It’s been two years since modern Asian eatery Torafuku opened its doors in Strathcona, and if you haven’t been yet – you’re missing out.
Known for its flavourful Eastern eats with tongue-in-cheek names inspired by pop culture, this spot’s new $40, 10-course Summer Tasting Menu will have you making a reso at its sleek and modern Main Street dining room ASAP.

The menu is $40 per person, and depending on how many people are in your party, you can expect slightly different portions/dishes on any various night.
For instance, if you’ve got four at your table, you can most likely expect the mother of all fish dishes – AKA Gone Fishing. Nothing like a whole market fish with tamarind, shallots, garlic, coriander, and fuku hot sauce, right?
