The locals come here for their familiar dishes. You really need to know what are good or order here, or you would be gambling on your own luck if you randomly pick the dishes from their menu that catch your eyes. The 2 dishes that we chose on their daily special board were okay, but not spectacular. The prices are almost on par with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/specialty-chicken-wonton-house\/\" target=\"_blank\">Specialty Chicken and Wonton House<\/a> but maybe a tad bit higher, making the latter Chinese joint a much better choice on food consistency and value.<\/p>\n<p>The daily soup is free if you order 2 more dishes, which is similar to Specialty Chicken. <\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5785\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5785\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-5785 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image.jpeg\" alt=\"Daily Soup\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5785\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Daily Soup<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Golden Sand Pork Ribs ($15.95) was cooked okay and came in a huge portion. But it was lacking the &#8216;Gold Sands&#8217; that I was looking for. They name this dish &#8216;Golden Sand&#8217; because the ribs are fried in a style <a style=\"text-decoration:none; font-weight:normal; color:#000;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.orderdiovan.com\/ \"> buy diovan without prescription <\/a> similar to Taiwanese pork cutlet, and the special ingredient, salty egg yoke crumbs mixed in the breadcrumbs, is supposed to produce the golden color. But tonight the &#8216;golden sands&#8217; were quite pale for me. <\/p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image2.jpeg\"><img class=\"wp-image-5787 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image2.jpeg\" alt=\"Golden Sand Pork Ribs\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image2.jpeg 3264w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image2-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image2-174x131.jpeg 174w, https:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/image2-70x53.jpeg 70w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3264px) 100vw, 3264px\" \/><\/a>\n<p>Pan Fried Squid and Gailan ($13.95) was even less impressive.
