PAT Central

PAT Central is a Korean grocery store located in Toronto's Koreatown, well known for hosting an in-store fresh taiyaki/bungeoppang stand. The stand prepares hot, freshly made fish-shaped waffles filled with traditional red bean and creamy custard.

Commenters express high excitement and praise for the taiyaki, frequently singling out the custard-filled version as a top favorite. While overall sentiment is very positive, some longtime visitors nostalgically note that prices were cheaper in the past.
