Editorial Review

Pale yellow walls, hung with pictures of the food on offer, provide little eye candy at this Chinese restaurant located in the heart of Cabbagetown. The extensive menu offers a smattering of Thai options, alongside the usual Szechuan, Mandarin and Cantonese fare. Top 40 radio hits blare while patrons tuck in to lemon chicken, moo shu pork and Singapore rice noodles. Helpful chili pepper and heart symbols identify spicy and low-cholesterol items for the heat-phobic and health-conscious. Unlicensed. Mains $5.95–$11.95.
