Fang Chi is a family run restaurant located at 3967 St. Antoine Street West in a residential area of St. Henri. It is not well served by public transportation so if you intend to dine at this establishment the best mode of transport to get to the restaurant is automobile. Apparently, this establishment is a well kept secret for those in the know about great Asian cuisine at reasonable prices in Montreal. Upon dining here I would agree with this assessment.
I dined at this restaurant with a group of five and enjoyed the experience very much. We arrived at about 6 on a Saturday night to what appeared to be a restaurant that was just opening for business for the evening. There were no other patrons but it quickly filled up diners. I liked the ambiance of this restaurant very much. It was a dimly lit and cozy intimate setting, perfect for our group.
I opted for the four course Cashew chicken meal daily special. This meal included a green tea, a won ton soup, spring roll, and the main dish (Cashew Chicken) all for the price of a little over $10.00, tip not included. The won ton soup was excellent, probably one of the best I ever tasted. The spring roll was great as well and was very crisp served with a very sweet plum sauce. The main course was delicious with a sweet sauce and lots of fresh steamed broccoli, green and red peppers, chicken and cashews, served with a dollop of steamed white rice.
I would recommend this restaurant for anyone who likes a restaurant that has very good quality fresh Asian dishes at a reasonable price. The specials of the day are highly recommended for those who are budget conscious. Enjoy!!!
