Usually, any time asks for a recommendation for a Chinese restaurant for Raleigh, I have to add the qualfier ""good for Raleigh."" NeoChina and Red Lotus fall in that category.
But after finding this treasure, I can say without qualification--this was great Chinese food...in Raleigh!
We started off with the hot tea (a bargain at $2/pot), sake (another bargain at $5/bottle), and Curry Puffs, not a very traditional Chinese dish, but very tasty. The appetizer tasted and looked like four small empanadas, filled with chicken and curry. The texture was perfect and the filling flavorful.
Our main dishes included the Steamed Seafood with Tofu, which was much more interesting than it sounded--the dish was topped with a modestly spicy soy paste and was served on portable burners to keep it warm.
The other dish was the Roast Duck, Hong Kong style (hot). The duck was cooked perfectly and served in generous portions.
All in all, I feel like this was a real find!
Pros: Interesting dishes, good food
Cons: In a strip mall
