Had a really fantastic dinner here on Thursday. My first time. The charsiu was perfectly done and the krapao fried rice special was incredibly fragrant and nuanced. We enjoyed the pork chop bun but would likely pass on it next time around.
Had the added pleasure of ordering a Howlin sando from Postmates while we were sitting at the tables there and had it “delivered” within 20 mins. Nice little bang bang. (And hopefully not too covidy since, per Eater, Howlin just shut down with one of their employees testing positive.)
Made it out to PRD today. (Chinatown is the furthest we’ve driven from West LA during the pandemic.) Was glad to see that it was pretty mellow in Far East Plaza (compared to my previous visit where there were hordes of Postmates drivers hanging around waiting for Howlin’ Ray’s).
Finally got to try their wonton mee with char siu. Delicious! The char siu had that nice ratio of fat to meat. Their wonton was delicate and may be the best wonton I’ve ever eaten (apologies to my grandmother).
Their chow fun was still spectacular, both char siu and vegetarian versions. I made sure that everyone in my family had their own order so we didn’t fight over it this time.
