The Scene
Cramped quarters and long lines don't keep the mostly Chinese families away from this bright one-room restaurant off the Market Square. Round and square tables leave only inches of walking space for the harried servers carrying steaming bamboo baskets filled with dumplings, crepes and rolls. Save for a few black-and-white photos of the neighborhood hanging on the wall, decor is minimal with white table linens and black metallic chairs. Conversation levels are boisterous considering this is a breakfast/brunch spot.
The Food
No less than 50 affordable dishes--baked, pan fried, deep fried or steamed--make sampling an adventure. Shredded chicken bits accent sugary sticky rice packed in a lotus leaf, while plump shrimp stuffed in a pasta-like roll swim in a shallow pool of soy sauce, adding to the sweet flavor. Cotton-ball sized pork dumplings are hot and paste-like inside. Diced pork married with cilantro takes a tang of barbecue flavoring.
