This place has become one of my favorites. The food is delicious, the service is great, the place is small but very pleasant, and if you sit at the bar, you'll get an incredible view of how everything is prepared.nnI ordered some Chinese noodles, fried rice, and vegetable rolls, and they were delicious. It's definitely worth a return visit.nnI recommend arriving on foot and not going with large groups. Although they do have a table that fits four or five people perfectly, if you're lucky, you'll find one free.

If you're looking for Chinese food and you're in the area, go ahead. The place is small, with a few tables inside; they set up two or three outside, and they deliver. The full menu includes appetizers, main courses, and rice dishes. Go for the BBQ ribs, sweet and sour pork, and mixed rice.nnI like that it's not greasy and their dishes have lots of fresh vegetables.nnI'd like the roasted duck, something more local and not so obvious. A little green tea, a black tea, a Jasmine tea, or a few jugs.nnBe careful, it's small and can get crowded.

I love it, whenever I can I come, half an order of chicken fried rice and half an order of Hunan chicken or sweet and sour sirloin and life starts over again.
