| - We came at a busy time apparently..all tables were full at 8pm on a Friday night. Stumbled into this place mistaking it for another one I couldn't remember the name of that was awesome last time we were here. Anyhow, we got in and shortly after were seated. It took them quite a while to come back to our table after that to get
us some water and take our orders. Luckily the kids food came out rather quickly but, I have to say, our food came out staggered and took quite some time to arrive. My daughter had egg drop soup which was a bit more watery than any I've had but, maybe more 'authentic'? Then, the kids shared some chicken ball(s) which were actually pretty awesome. The batter on them reminded me of corn dog batter, or maybe even like hush puppies, slightly sweet and moist breading...they were actually quite good. We had the fried tofu which looked like small round fried discs but, the tofu was very creamy and almost looked like custard..I thought it was quite good and my girlfriend loved it (we were starving by then). We also had a steamed shrimp dumpling app that was o-k compared to others I have had. When our main course came out maybe an hour or so later..we had the seafood hotpot with bean curd...it was awesome!! The seafood was a great mix of shrimp, octopus (calamari), fish, bok choy, mushrooms all mixed with a light sauce that was spectacular. Great meal that didn't sit heavy in your stomach and was just enough for two people.
Anyhow, I would give the food 4 stars and the service 3.
