| - Good place. Someone here on Yelp recommended the sui gow soup (lookin' at you, Sylvia L.), of which I'd never heard, and both milady wife and I found it delicious. That brings up another point - that soup doesn't appear on the standard menu. Apparently they have a Chinese menu hidden away somewhere, which isn't usually offered to us haole customers. I'll ask for it next time.
Good Singapore rice noodles, good dry beef chow fun. I didn't think much of the tangerine peel beef. I'm always looking for above-average Asian resto's in my neighborhood, and this seems to be one of the better ones. Good and attentive service - the server seemed to recognize us, which, given that we're not in frequently, surprised me.
I wish that they were open for dinner - daily closure at 5PM seems a little eccentric for a restaurant, but I suppose that they know their own business best.
The neighborhood seems to be getting a little sketchy - the influence of the nearby light rail, coupled with proximity to the canal? There's an abandoned business, as of this writing, next door to the Silver Dragon that seems to be becoming a gathering point for homeless folks.
