Silver Inn Restaurant

"It would be a complete oversight not to include the birthplace of ginger beef on this map. Chef-owner George Wong is said to have originated the Canadian-Chinese dish at this popular Chinese institution in 1975. Decades later, the dried beef, sliced onions, and bell peppers are still wok-fried to perfection in a sweet, tangy ginger sauce — though the restaurant has a long list of other offerings, too.
