A highly anticipated pearl of Pasadena comes to Playa Vista.
They're too far away for pick-up but close enough for Doordash. Unfortunately, their signature Scallion Pancake falls victim to the car time, sogging in their own steam. Keep this in mind when ordering in as I imagine they'd be amazing when they're fresh.
The Beef Roll travels beautifully, a chewy pancake wrapped around that gooey, tender oxtail.
Short Rib Dan Mein Noodles are homemade al dente, sauteed with gorgeous garlic and greens. The short rib is super juicy, and the definitive, delightful smoke of wok char goes straight through the nose.
Enjoy Sauteed Snow Pea Leaves with Garlic if you need your veggie fix. They have them in the noodles, but I can't get enough.
Their signature Dungeness Crab Fried Rice is nice but not a standout. The crab flavor is underwhelming, and it's not their strongest dish.
It's modern Chinese without losing its Chinese, a spin on tradition to the whims of the chef. I really like this version.
