Many people say, "Goong Hee Fat Choy" during Chinese New Year, but do you know what it really means? It's not "Happy New Year"...it's more like "Let's Make A Lot of Money". Therefore, "Fat Choy" is something like Prosperity and Good Luck. And, if you are what you eat, then I want tons of Fat Choy!
That's part of the reasoning behind dining at this hole-in-the-wall establishment. The prices are reasonable, the service is EXCELLENT, and the food is really good. Fresh, quality ingredients are used.
Example: Wonton Soup. I didn't find any gristle in my wontons! The "pi" wrapper was the good thin type. ..not the cheap, thick style! The water chestnuts were chopped so finely that they were a pleasant texture instead of an obvious big nuisance! The broth had a mild, but complex flavor. ..not a salty assault!
Also enjoyed the Peking Duck Bao and the Potstickers with its crisp edges and Ginger Scallion dipping sauce. ..they were yummy! And of course the famous Pork Belly Bao which is marinated overnight and braised to perfection... enough said. Top it off with a very tall and wide but fluffy éclair stuffed to the brim... I couldn't finish so I'm having it right now in my hotel room!
I highly recommend a visit here. ..I'll probably go back today for a burger at lunch time! !! Enjoy!
