| - MMMmmm!! This is probably my favorite Chinese restaurant in Cleveland. I liked it more than Siam Cafe, which I've been to a few times and wasn't wowed. I went with a large group and we tried a number of dishes and ate family style. We had the Orange beef, Singapore noodles, eggplant with shredded pork in pan-fried noodles, and seafood with fish maw soup, Jade tofu+fish, iced milk tea. EVERYTHING was delicious! (I probably would pass on the Jade tofu and iced milk next time, though..there still isn't a fantastic bubble tea place in Cleveland. Koko is where i go for my bubble tea fix, but it's nothing compared to Tenren's in NYC or Joy Yee's in Chicago)All of us in our group of 10 was satisfied with yummies in our tummies.
It's authentic Chinese food. You know the Asian food will be good when most of the patrons are Asian and the waitstaff can't speak English. That's just how it is here in the Midwest with first/second generation Asian-Americans.
It was soo cheap, too! Less than $12/person and we ate our hearts out! So much more satisfying than going to a gourmet restaurant. I was just at Lolita's last night, which was good, but not as good as this place. I'd rather eat this type of homecooking than spend thrice as much with a bunch of yuppies and rich ppl.
I'll definitely be coming here on a regular basis! :) YOU WILL LOVE IT, TOO! I promise! Warning: You will be outnumbered if you're white. ;)
Oh yeah, the waitstaff is kind of blah, though. She kept on asking us if we had a coupon, and I said, "Oh no, but I wish we did!" Then she said, "Well we don't take coupon!" And I looked at her confused, like "Ummm..okay, so you want us to leave then?" Lol. But it's just a language barrier. I guess there was some sorta scam from restaurant.com, and they don't take the coupon they put out, FYI, if you have one.
