Reviews
- HarperEvery time I go I can't help walking around a bit, checking out the vibe and taking some pics. The owner is super humble, says he's just a lazy guy doing it as a hobby, but honestly the place looks amazing and the food is sooo good. The yu xiang rou si (shredded pork in fish-fragrant sauce), shui zhu yu (boiled fish in chili oil), mapo tofu, and fu qi fei pian (husband and wife lung slices) are all worth trying. Portions are pretty big too, so be careful not to over-order when you're picking dishes!
