This is a small restaurant hidden on Temperance street. They serve very authentic chinese food. My husband and I always order a plate of dumplings and one pork dish and one veg dish. The owner couples are really friendly. Small restaurant but great food.

Not an in your face location this cafe might not be too noticable from the street. Once inside the smells are wetting the taste buds. The dishes are priced moderately. Must visit to people on a budget in the university area

My friend and I enjoyed freshly made pan fried dumplings. A young couple run this old time comfortable cafe and make their own dumplings with many choices for pan fried dumplings and other Asian selections. Soups, stirred fried dishes, rice choices, noodle choices. The atmosphere is simplistic and comforting. The prices are the best; freshness is great, taste is yummy. Repeat! Repeat!
