| - For those of you who want something delicious and authentic, I highly recommend you try out Shangri'La. This place has been around as long as I have (ok, I am only 26, but still!). For as old as it has been around, the quality still remains the same.
On my last visit, I ordered the seared dumplings, sizzling soup, and some kind of sizzling peppered steak.
The soup arrived promptly. Nothing better then hearing that spppplash of rice in the hot soup. This soup needed no additional seasonings (with the exception of pepper, which I add to everything). It was perfectly salted, perfectly heated, and filled with hearty vegetables and meats. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the shrimp in the soup. It did not have any fishy taste to it what so ever.
The dumplings were equally as delicious. They were fried to a nice consistency on each side and the accompanying sauce could be drank on its own.
The final treat was our steak meal. I loved the fact that they provide you with a HUGE bowl of white rice on the side. It definitely proved to leave plenty for our take out...which speaking of takeout, my fiance and I shared everything that night. We ended up with an extra cup of soup, 2 extra dumplings, rice, and peppered steak. Our meal came to around 25 for both of us, plus the remaining leftovers for the next day.
In either case, I recommend giving this place a try. With age comes wisdom, and it is wise to go with what is known.
