for photos and more reviews, visit http://thelittlemomentsofmylife.blogspot.com/ (:the pumpkin fries with salted egg yolk ($6.80) were a wonderful blend of crumbly pastry (i would liken it to something similar to the char siew sou pastry), over a layer of salted egg yolk encasing a sweet pumpkin paste. when we bit into it, the filling was piping hot and burnt our lips but we couldn't resist gobbling it down! yeah, it's deep fried, but the fact that it was made of pumpkin made it feel 'healthy'?

this restaurant is mainly a yunan chinese restaurant, however, they have dishes from other parts of china as well, such as the sze chuan chicken in a basket ($7.50). it is a crisply fried chicken, covered with a spicy batter, and for added effect, tossed with a generous (read: abundant) amount of chilis. initially, we didn't feel that it was very spicy, but the more we ate it, the more our lips and tongue started to burn haha. what a fiery dish!
also a specialty of the restaurant would be the zhao pai mian xian ($8) which is a HUMONGOUS bowl of noodles with 15 types of ingredients in a broth that is boiled for hours. topped with a layer of oil to keep it warm, this is a homely dish that is good for nursing colds (:
