I like this place, but maybe it will be a hint. I ordered chicken rice soup, but I was planning to eat it next day. What i saw the next day was a porridge with rice and chicken (I know that rice absorb water) but… maybe it will help to serve the food with a little logic. My container was filled with too much rice and chicken on top. Otherwise, lo mein was amazing . - Tati Kmchtv
