I’ve only been to this Chinese restaurant maybe three times — all spaced months apart, like my attempts at personal growth. So imagine my surprise when the lady behind the counter remembered my order. Not just vaguely — like, with surgical precision. I don’t know if she’s got a photographic memory or a hit list, but I felt seen. And not in a comforting way.

Our first interaction? A disaster. I had my earphones in like the antisocial degenerate I am....
Beef with garlic sauce 9.5/10.

A bit too much cornstarch. Not too sweet and not too spicy. Lot of beef and veggies.

Curry chicken. 9.5/10

Amazingly tender. Not enough curry sauce kick. A lot of chicken meat.
I’ve been coming here since I was 8-9 years old. And the food quality never changes. This place has a special place in my heart. Come to this place you won’t regret it! Always busy and the food always on point!
