what looks like a typical overpriced asian fusion restaurant in downtown seattle amidst all of the office buildings is actually an excellent and authentic chinese restaurant. i went with derek's family to try out their dinner menu and we ordered a table full of yummy dishes. my favorite was the sea bass - fatty and rich fish with an amazing dressing - tastes just like when my mom makes it at home. yum.

derek's favorite were the green noodles - which are advertised as hand-shaved, but look like normal noodles. we had more peking duck with mantao buns - this time with less meat and more skin. the beef and broccoli had a unique twist - giant stalks of chinese broccoli topped with stir-fried beef. the stir-fried seafood was in a bowl made out of a deep fried spring roll wrappers - i think my favorite part of that dish was eating the bowl. really good food in an unexpected place.
