Founded by Cynthia & Joe Lam, Cynthia's Chinese Restaurant is the ultimate Chinese fine dining experience. Joe Lam learned the restaurant business in Hong Kong where he trained as a chef at one of the top restaurants. When he met Cynthia in Australia they married and opened a series of successful restaurants in New South Wales and Victoria. In 1992 Cynthia and Joe came to Canada and opened Cynthia's in 1993, working with Cynthia's brother Andy, another accomplished restaurateur. Within a few years there were demands from clients for another location and the Thornhill restaurant was opened in 1998 to much acclaim. Added on March 7, 2018 and last updated 5 years ago
