An authentic Chinese food court in the heart of ChinatownIf you want to enjoy the variety of Chinese food options without breaking your budget, this is a good place. There are 10-12 (depending on when you are there) food stall-type restaurants featuring dishes from all over China. There is also a barber shop and clothing store and a wonderful little snack shop that should not be missed!My friend and I had dumplings. He opted for vegetable dumplings while I went for chicken with mushroom dumplings. Both were served with a simple but wonderful garlic, chilli and black vinegar sauce. The taste was very authentic.I should note that at this, and most of the stands, there are a number of vegetarian options.There are restrooms but you must get the key from a somewhat begrudging staff member. The food court itself features some very simple metal chairs and tables but being surrounded by the food stalls makes up for the rather unsophisticated atmosphere.

Tried the pork pie. Super good! Saw it on a food show and found it here. More than made my expectations. Make sure to use plenty of the chili oil. It's moldy spices, but the flavor it adds makes the pie perfect!
