Mandarin

In a press release, the chain announced that they will be launching a new dine-in experience called Mandarin Small Eats.

The first location will open on August 17 in Brampton, with other restaurants to follow closely behind. 

While you won't be able to grab your favourite snacks from the buffet, the joint will be offering 70 dishes that include their classics. 

The plates will range between $1.99 and $4.99, so you'll be able to sample a bunch of them without breaking your wallet!
