This little, 5 or 7 table restaurant, has been around for awhile, but we had not been there. When we pulled up, it didn't look very promising. There was a lady coming out w/ some take out, so we asked her if she'd eaten there before & she raved about the food. So, we went inside.
There's a cooler for cans of soda, styrofoam cups and a water cooler and hot tea caraffe. The salt & pepper shakers don't match. There are fans mounted on the walls. It reminded me of a place Mary & I went in Chicago back in high school - looks a little sketchy, but amaaaaazing food.
I had to try the crab ragoon, of course.
Oh my heck. I should have torn one open for a picture, but didn't think of it! Stuffffed with cream cheese, crab flecks & green onion, these little pouches are superb. Creamy, with just enough crab and spice. I almost ordered some to go for later!! I'll definitely be taking advantage of their delivery service in the future.
For the main course, I ordered roast pork chow mein. The pork was good, but I won't order it again, as apparently chow mein means "onion & celery" of which I was previously unaware. I also thought - as per the menu - that there would be crunchy noodles. Alas, I didn't say anything when there weren't, because I wasn't sure how it was supposed to be...
Mom had vegetable fried rice, which she said was really good, and Leyton had sweet & sour chicken. The chicken was pretty flavorful, but I'm not a fan of chinese chicken, in general.
If you're in the neighborhood, stop by or call for delivery. : )
Until next time... Happy eats!
