Lunch at a restaurant serving Fujianese food, which I was unfamiliar with. Very simple, bare bones place for a quick in and out meal.

Pork dumplings - Solid

Peanut butter noodles - Good. Very mild in flavor but nice.

Fishballs - Came out as a soup with meat stuffed in balls of dough. Was expecting something else. But a light, pleasant soup.

Lychee pork - Kind of a higher end version of sweet and sour...
Pure Fuzhou cuisine. The boss speaks with a strong Fuzhou accent and provides distinctive Fuzhou-style service. You can order in Fuzhou dialect. Highly recommended for tourists from the five districts and eight counties of Fuzhou. Chinese people who like Fujian cuisine are also recommended to try it, but please include Fuzhou’s characteristic service style. It’s not that they are unhospitable, it’s just a matter of habit and custom.
One of the best hidden gems in Chinatown!

This little restaurant is our go-to for authentic Fuzhounese comfort dishes at really great prices. 3 dishes for less than $10? #WorthIt (just make sure to bring cash) You can go in, grab a menu and seat yourself. Call the hostess over once you’re ready to order and chill.

We always get the wonton soup with mini wontons and the peanut butter noodles (pictured).
