| - Tucked away next to the Subway's in a shopping center at Dobson and Main is this FANTASTIC place !! My wife and I live in Prescott Valley, and there isn't a Chinese restaurant there that deserves to be called Chinese. Waaayyyy different story here. They have an AZ Menu for those used to "Americanized" Chinese food and the Hong Kong menu for the REAL DEAL. When we arrived at 2:15 p.m. the place was jammed and thankfully, most of the patrons were Chinese!! That's the first "tell" that you have a good place. Secondly, the Hong Kong Menu had 4 times the number of pages than the AZ Menu - -also a good sign. My wife and I ordered 5 dishes, which amazed the waitress. After we explained about where we lived and that there will be a takeout order as well as the leftovers, she was very happy and understood. We had the crispy tofu, steamed chicken with vegetables, beef stew hot pot, combo chow mien and beef with XO sauce. Everything was fantastic. The sauce that came with the crispy tofu was a house specialty and really added a lot to a normally bland dish. We used the same sauce on the steamed chicken, which was quite tasty by itself. Beef with XO sauce was initially spicy, but tamed down the more of it you ate. The beef stew hotpot - one of the best I had anywhere and the combo chow mein was above par. We did have a large amount left over, which was packed to go with our added order for beef stew noodle soup, wonton noodle soup and Yangchou fried rice. Haven't yet tried those, as it was only yesterday that we went. However, I have no doubt that they will be even more delectable, as soup only gets better with time. We will definitely be back.
