Turning Chinese

Longxi­ang Res­taur­ant, on Dix­on St oppos­ite the cow­boy (or where the Cow­boy was), came highly recom­men­ded to me. The lovely Miss Fur eats her lunch there on a fre­quent basis (hey stalk­ers, she’s single!), and my fath­er has told me a couple of times about how he took a couple of vis­it­ing Chinese dig­nit­ar­ies for din­ner there and they returned three times dur­ing their vis­it, (hav­ing decided anoth­er Chinese res­taur­ant they went to was rub­bish).

And if real Chinese people from China like it, it must be good, authen­t­ic, and tasty, right? I decided to test it out for myself, hav­ing pre­vi­ously only tried takeaways that suffered from long delays before we got to eat them, which is hardly a sport­ing chance.

So after the Beck­on VIP night, I grabbed my con­stant res­taur­ant buddy/sister Kar­en, as well as the Wellingtonista’s Hadyn and the delight­ful Amy and set out to give it a go.

Review after the jump.
