This is seriously the best Chinese place around. They have a great selection, even for me, a vegetarian. The lunch menu is wonderful.

And of course, a fortune ...

My new favorite Chinese restaurant
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/07/07
I visited this restaurant because the Denny's next door had gone out of business, and am I glad I did.
5 stars for the prices, 4 stars for the deliciousness of the food, and 5 stars for the variety of asian dishes on the menu.
You can get your standard Chinese fare, but they also have really good Vietnamese and Thai dishes also.
This place is a hidden gem.
I recommend the papaya salad and the sweet green curry.

The first bite, I bit into a small grey rock. I told the waiter and showed him the rock in my hand. He took the rock and threw it on the floor! He ...
