Halal Dine-In!

Mississauga being a multi-cultural city offers its residents almost with all kinds of foods such as Chinese, Thai, Indian, Vietnamese and most importantly Pakistani food which is halal.

Whenever I crave for Pakistani food, I always end up going to Café de Khan. It has one of a kind food that will make you mouth water.  It has two locations, one in Heartland Town Centre and the other in Millcreek and Erin Mills intersection.

The best thing about it is that the owner mostly cooks himself and has a great magic in his hands. The food is just delicious. They offer a great variety of dishes from Chicken Karahi, Lahori Fish, and BBQ to all the yummy Pakistani desserts, Kulfi, Gulab Jaman and Mango Lassi. My favourtie dish here is “Pehawari Kabab”. They are extremely spicy and Bar-b-Qued and sautéed in special spices. All the staff here is very friendly and the ambience is always very good and enjoyable with all latest Pakistani songs being played in the background. I am very sure that just like me you all will also have a great experience here. I would highly recommend trying this out.

Erindale Park.  It offers a variety of activities for almost all ages, such as skiing, cycling, walking tails, playgrounds for kids and even a tobogganing hill. There are a few family picnic spots and an amazing view of salmon running in August at the North end of the park.

Kariya Park. This Japanese garden is located in the heart of Mississauga. It features a large metal maple leaf structure, 8 rocks with Canadian native petroglyphs, bear sculpture in a canoe called “The Water Road” and a bronze bell hanging in the pagoda which signifies friendship between Japan and Canada.
