My favorites: pork belly buns, Pho (the owner is Vietnamese), Spring rolls, green beans, and my husband likes the lemongrass chicken. Brunch is always fantastic!

This is literally the only Chinese restaurant I order from in Chapel Hill. My favorites: Chicken Pad Thai, crab Rangoon, Fried Mandarin Fish, and scallion pancake. Don’t forget to ask for their “authentic” dish menu.
