A new addition to Oakland Chinatown, this Cantonese restaurant serves up a decent mix of wok-fried entrees, salt and pepper done... 6 ways, and seafood.\n\nCrab is their specialty. The savoury ginger scallion sauce made the added work of extracting the sweetmeat well worth it.\n\nThe hot and spicy shrimp was served in a flavourful tomato sauce, while the salt and pepper spareribswere fried dry (in a good way) ? topped with crispy garlic and minced jalapeño. Not expected, but still very good.\n\nHot potoptions go beyond the standard: medicinal chicken, old goose, beef offal, and lamb.\n\nPortions are generous for the price.K-pop, disco lights and the futuristic kitsch interior gives a sense of younger crowd.
