The Scene
Chef Richard Ng and his wife Theresa so thoroughly enjoy sharing the cuisine of their homeland that they operate three of the most successful Chinese restaurants in the metro area. Both Johnson County locations are smoke-free.
The Food
Moo shu pork with plum sauce, crispy Szechuan green beans, sweet and spicy General Tso's chicken, and plump fresh scallops with veggies and light oyster sauce are among the most frequently ordered dishes. But don't overlook the Cantonese lettuce wraps, spicy Mongolian beef in hoisin sauce, and Singapore style noodles with curry. Each is superb. The Plaza and Metcalf locations offer extraordinary dim sum each Saturday and Sunday at lunchtime. The luscious little Chinese morsels--there are about 50 to choose from--are all reasonably priced, and an assortment makes a delightfully unique brunch for a group.
Dish to Die For
Orange peel shrimp.

We love coming here for dim sum on the weekends. Favorites include: shrimp dumplings, shark fin dumplings, chive dumplings, porridge, turnip cakes, chinese veggies, and soy dessert. Service could be friendly and better though. And the host needs to come up with a better system. Other than that we are pretty pleased!

I love this place with a passion. It is a little pricey but it is well worth it in my opinion. The chicken is REAL and white meat. I like this better than the other Plaza chinese counterpart with the initials PFC. I would eat here 5 times a week if I could afford it! Call in and pick up your order also!

I went to dim sum this past weekend, and was enjoying the dumplings actually....UNTIL....I found a dead fly in one of the dumpling containers!! I reported it first to our so-called waitress...who just said, "What do you want me to do about it?" Then, I told her to get the manager. The manager came to take a look and then she said, "they can't control for flying insects unlike crawling insects." She said she was sorry and offered to take off just that dumpling item. I was so disgusted that couldn't eat any more. The proper way to handle this is actually to offer a free meal, either that day or in the future, to ensure that customers come back. This type of thing happened to me a few times before and that is how the manager always responded. More importantly, I didn't feel like they cared. Oh, I also saw a big cockroch crawl on the wall another time I was there...THAT is a crawling insect!! My advice is to look at what you're eating!
