There’s a dim sum place in Markham called Golden Palace Banquet Hall, and it’s quite good.  I’ve been there a couple of times now, tried at least a dozen things, and I don’t think I’ve had a single dud.

All of that stuff? Quite tasty!  But there’s one reason to visit Golden Palace Banquet Hall, and it’s these things right here:

I’m talking about the enormous, honey-coated pieces of fried dough in the lower right-hand side of that photo.  They’re called angel wings (though I’ve also heard them referred to as egg shatters), and they’re the best.

There’s really not all that much to them.  They’re airy, lightly crispy pieces of fried dough that have been coated in honey.  That’s it.  But there’s something about them that’s completely irresistible.  Once you start eating them, you can’t stop.  They’re so great.
