With its trappings of red and gold Chinoise decor, Very Fair is a classic restaurant from my childhood - and the well-worn look of the carpets and walls attest to the fact that little has been done to the room since that era. Located in the basement of a strip mall, they certainly don't win points on atmosphere.
They do win plenty of points, however, for the quality of their food and the low cost of their dishes.
Last night, my family ordered the Maggi lobster and wow, was it especially good. Great wok-hay, lovely fried tamale, and lots and lots of tender meat, from one giant lobster.
Also popular is the Peking duck dish - as is evidenced by the numerous lacquered fowl passing us by and the one we had on the table. The wrap was a little chewy, so this can't rank among the best. Cheap and acceptable though.
My family has come here on many occasions, and I always leave stuffed and my parents always leave happy that it didn't cost them a lot of money for good quality dishes. One of the few restaurants that this ever happens at!
