| - A bit surprised as to the low rating for this place. The service was a bit slow yes, and perhaps people are turned off by the restaurant only takes cash? That aside, I found the actual food surprisingly impressive.
We ordered several balanced dishes: Bok Choy with Steamed Fish, Salt and Pepper Fried Pork, Sweet and Sour Pork, Softshell Crab Fried Rice, and Fried Duck. The fish was fresh and the bok choy was cooked just right (not under/over-cooked). The Fried pork was nice and crispy, without being excessively oily. The S & S pork was pretty standard, but wasn't overly fatty, like a lot of other Chinese restos. The star of the dinner though, and what this place is apparently most known for, was the softshell crab fried rice - loved the seasoning, and how the crispy crab really livened up the dish.
I would try this place again when I'm in the area.
