After walking around the Castro in support of pride month we decided we needed a bite. We came upon the Dumpling house we entered the small quaint restaurant and were greeted with big smiles. So many dumpling to choose from i wish there were more in our party so we could get a bigger selection, We we decided on the the soup dumplings, Szechuan noodles, & combination fried rice (I know sounds boring) We were amazingly surprised the noodle were obviously house made with all thier lovely imperfections for the wonderful sauce to grab on to. The rice came sizzling coming straight from the wok have a delicious sired smell our mouths were watering. We finished everything!! Sharona <sp> was very pleasant & attending.

Piccolo ristorantino nelle vie di Castro. Da italiana non avevo grosse aspettative in merito al cibo, e invece devo dire che era eccezionale! Uno dei più buoni ristoranti cinesi in cui abbia mai mangiato! Abbiamo preso ravioli al vapore Shanghai style con carne, noodles con verdure e pollo al sesamo: veramente non so quale dei tre piatti fosse più buono. E aggiungo che il prezzo è assolutamente onesto rispetto agli standard americani, anche in considerazione delle porzioni molto abbondanti (51 dollari comprese le bevande). SUPER !!
