Good chinese fusion food 1/19/2012

The shrimp congee I ordered was delicious, it was simply different. The dessert which included brow butter sauce something was just so so. I guess pastry is not the advantage of the restaurant. But the other main dish was good to great. I also love the beef noodle with spicy broth. more

Rounds Out the Neighborhood 5/17/2010

Inman Square is home to some of my favorite haunts: Bukowski's for beer, the East Coast Grill for seafood, and now East by Northeast, a fresh take on the Chinese noodle house care of Chef Phillip Tang. Pros: inventive and reasonably priced menu Cons: for a smallish space, not very cozy (""we're just friends"") more

Noodles and curried carrot chips 1/25/2010

The curried carrot chips brought as you wait with a drink in line turned my head. They are amazing, dry and crisp and just perfect. Where have they been all my life? The short rice stick noodles, the long noodles , the kohlrabi salad and other pickly things are superb, as was the pork belly noodle soup. The virgin drinks are at least as good as the alcoholic ones. But slow down a bit on service; these tastes should be allowed to linger on the tongue! I went two nights in a row and the unfailingly friendly staff, the sparkling bright taste of the food and the general cheer will bring me back again. Pros: spectacularly tasty small plates; friendly and innovative Cons: Cleared too quickly more
