| - I came here for a birthday event, after hearing about this place from a fellow yelper, my interest was definitely peaked. I mean, my interest will always be peaked with the mention of fried chicken.
We were seated right in the front, probably the only place you could accommodate a larger group of 10.
I appreciated that the lighting was bright and that the space itself wasn't too crammed like most popular asian joints. I like that I could enjoy my food without compromising space - often a problem I find.
I also was the fan of the way they named their dishes, I love themed restaurants and you could defintely pinpoint the them they were trying to achieve.
The knitty gritty. My husband an I were famished at that point, so we ordered A LOT.
Fu Manchu Tofu - very good, small bite size pieces with a good sauce to sit in
Sticky fingaz rice - my favourite when I go to a chinese restaurant. This sticky rice had all the boastings of what I normally get, but offered a looser more flavourful version...
Cabbage Patch Kids Brussel sprouts - delicious, not very brussel sprout-y tasting if you know what i mean, but I really felt we didn't get enough :(
The O.G. Bao - Sad that we got one big bao, vs. two smaller ones, like I'm normally used to. Taste wise it was great
8 piece (bucket) of chicken - at a first glance its definitely a shocker. I love how they plated it. Presentation was on point. Taste wise, I think the batter could be a little lighter, but I loved that it was hot and fresh, and the side of lemon to go with it.
I definitely would want to return to try the other items they had on the menu, as they have a lot of variety, but I will probably skip on the fried chicken fare next time.
