It's tucked in behind the parking lot and close to some hotpot and Korean restaurants. We like the wonton soup and their jook. I believe they're cash only though... Cheers! Erick Hi Ben,

However, $6.25 is too costly for a bowl of noodles x topping. They overcharge you if you mix toppings. They do not give your a regular portion of wontons or tendon if you mix. I suggest you order the tendon noodles and a separate bowl of JUST wontons. That way your family can share too! Hi Ben,

Great job in conversion. My wife likes this chili oil especially when she eats noodle soups like won ton mein or fish ball noodle (her favorite). She takes a scant teaspoon of the chili oil and puts it in her bowl of soup. If there's an extra soup spoon nearby, she'll put the oil and chilis into the spoon and let it float on top of her soup and use the soup spoon as a dipping dish. How does this place compare to Mak's Noodle House, one of our favorites. Cheers! Hey Ben,

You are supposed to use the oil AND the chili together! Since most people only use less than a spoon full of it, the amount of cholesterol is negligible. The oil is the “essence”.

So I guess that's why some don't have any container for the chili oil. And they also take the oil along with the chili, no draining the oil.
