My go to spot when I have no other dinner plans. Favourites include Hunan Pork, Curry Chicken, Spicy Eggplant, General Tao Chicken, and Satay Noodles. Ordering over the phone can be pretty hurried and sometimes difficult (as a white guy, at least), but I'd almost go so far as to say it's endearing.

They also have an alcohol license and offer Tsingtao beer if you’re interested (just a tip: it's pronounced "Ching-tao").

The portions are generous—too much for one person to finish! I ordered chicken and shrimp chow mein, which has a Desi Chinese twist. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others.
