    Inside
    Foo L.

    Pulled into the China Sail parking lot very cautiously because it was dark out and Foo not want to hit no one while grabbing some take out. I got out of my Datsun and walked up to China Sail. The door of the joint was a bit jammed so Foo pulled hard. It unstuck open okay. "Ni hao Foo, good to see you again!" said Caihong or Catherine to most customer. "Xie xie," I said in return. "You bring cash again?" I said, "You bet I did and Foo is hungry!" "Then what you have?" "Number 7 small and number 11 small with extra sticky." "Ah, you want extra sticky?" "Yes, Foo love sticky!" And then we both laugh very hard. I paid in cash and took the change and stuffed it into the little plexiglass box with raggedy hole. My wad of grat hardly fit. "Here you go Foo, your order up." So I grabbed my double bag and checked inside. "Hey, where is Foo's fortune cookie?" "You want fortune?" "Yes, I want fortune!" "Ok, here you go, Foo is rich and handsome so he get lucky at casino tonight!" Then we both laugh again and we head bow and Foo leaves his favorite take out.

    Cashew Chicken

    Today I'm having the Cashew Chicken. I asked for no MSG and I can tell they obliged because the sauce taste different than I was expecting. This is the most delicious Cashew chicken ever! I asked for extra spicy and it's perfect! There are tons of cashews, onions, carrots and celery and the sauce is so tangy, sweet and sour. I highly recommend this order! I will continue to come back here, I've been on a serious diet and lost 20 lbs in the last month and China sail has been my go to for quick, healthy meals full of veggies

    I absolutely love their food. Not some where I would have a dinner date or anything, but it's one of my favorite take out spots. They have the best Crab Ragoon if you like them sweet & crispy!

    The fried chicken is great but the price is too much and the rice is mushy at times but definitely worth the chicken

    I love love love Chengdu. It is my favorite authentic Chinese/Sichuan spot in Providence. You don't…read morecome here for chicken fingers !! I have never had a bad meal here, and I always try to be adventurous and try something new each time. With that being said, I always get an order of the Chongqing diced chicken. It is one of my fave dishes of all time (be warned, it is SPICY. Not for the faint of heart). The sauteed pig intestine with chili is another fave of mine. The dining area is spacious and cute, and the staff here is always incredibly nice and knowledgeable. Very helpful when there is a lot of dishes you might not be familiar with ! Chengdu is a must try if you are in the Smith Hill area of Providence. In fact , it's worth a trip to Smith Hill all on it's own.

    I wanted something different for dinner and this place has been on my list to visit for a while…read more There were plenty of parking spaces to choose from. When we went inside, there was only one other party there and no music, so just whispers and the sounds of utensils against plates. There are about 4-5 booths and 1-2 regular tables to choose from. Since l am not familiar with Sichuan cuisine, I had Al help me choose my dishes. I went with the dumplings in chili sauce, fried rice, eggplant in garlic sauce, and chongquin chicken. While we waited, we were given water. The dishes came out at different times. They first served us the dumplings which were really good. The sauce they were in did have some chili sauce, but it was mostly like a sweet soy sauce and really tasty. It came with about 6 dumplings with a perfectly cooked wrapper and filled with flavorful pork - simple but delicious. Next was the eggplant. I was expecting a heavy garlic presence, but it was more like a sweet and sour sauce. The eggplant was very tender, but really hot so we had to wait to let it cool down a bit. The rice came after. I honestly think this was one of my favorite dishes since it was perfectly cooked, great flavor, and good portion. Lastly, the chicken came out. There was a large pile of chicken, but half of it was peppers. The chicken was cut into little bite sized pieces, each fried perfectly. Some pieces were more tongue numbing than others but it was nothing aggressive; very gentle and comfortable numb. I would have liked if there were music, but the no music was fine too; an escape from chaotic reality. Our total was around $50, which wasn't bad for the amount of food we got. I would come back to try other items.

    I have been on the hunt for the best crab rangoons in Rhode Island and this place came highly…read morerecommended. So I stopped in the other day in between some errands. At first glance, you don't see much from Elmwood Ave, but veer to the right and everything opens up on the left, with a parking lot in the back. Ornate statues lead you to the entrance, and once inside you are instantly greeted with bold colors and beautiful art everywhere. I wanted to take the opportunity to try some Cambodian food, so after some quick research, I opted for Beef Lok Lak, which happened to be one of the lunch combos. I chose fried rice and nime chow for my lunch options and settled back to wait for my feast. They bring you a complementary pot of hot tea, which I enjoyed. I believe it was a straightforward unsweetened black tea. Perfect for me. Before long the rangoons arrived. I literally said "wow" when the runner set my plate down. Beautiful golden brown, small bubbles visible all over the outside, promising crispy goodness. And it delivered. What I didn't expect what the slight chewiness to the wrapper that enhanced the experience. The filling was super creamy and delicious, but I prefer my rangoons with scallions as well. However, that didn't stop me from enjoying every bite. Then my lunch came. The beef was perfectly cooked, the dressing tangy and peppery. The nime chow was herby and super fresh as it should be. And the rice had this extra depth of flavor that made me think of tomato paste? A lovely addition the dish. I had a great meal here and the rangoons are definitely worth having! I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more of their menu!!

    If you want fast food (especially on a weekend), don't come here. But if you want fresh, tasty, and…read morewell-priced food, do yourself the favor of taking a trip here. For the longest, I thought Apsara on Hope St and this Apsara were the same owners, different locations but I was fooled. They are different, so I came on a Saturday evening with my friend to give this one a try. They have a parking lot but it is small. However, there is lots of street parking around. When we walked in, every table was full and we had to wait about 20-30 minutes to be seated. Since we had time to look at the menu while we waited, we ordered right away: BBQ beef, stir fried thin egg noddle with seafood, and thai garlic chicken wings. While waiting for the food, I had ample time to take in my surroundings, including all the elegant décor around the restaurant including a lot of red and gold colors. Our food came out all together after about 20-30 minutes. The portion sizes were excellent, and all the food was still hot. The beef was cooked perfectly (for me) and cut into manageable strips. It was tender, a hint of sweet, and savory. It came with some sweet pickled shaved radish, cabbage, and carrots with cucumber. This with the meat created a contrast in texture and amplified the sweetness. There was also a clear sauce and that was also really.good. The fried noodles were delicious. They were thin so it seemed like the flavor penetrated inside the noodle. It had a good amount of seafood including big chunks of imitation crab meat, shrimp, and something else I was unfamiliar with. It also had mustard leaves; they weren't bitter, they just had a neutral green leaf flavor (maybe spinach but stronger). The chicken wing order came with about 8 wings, sitting on a bed of cabbage and topped with jalapeno and chili peppers. They were still very hot and crispy, and had a savory and a subtle umelike flavor. I wish the garlic flavor were stronger. I am excited to come back again and try something new on the menu.

    LaMei is an amazingly good restaurant in Providence, RI. The food is fresh clean and delicious…read more I went for dinner and got the bone broth with sliced premium beef and marinated tenderloin. Service was really good. My server was great and I had a great evening.

    I've been to LaMei previously, but they are offering an AYCE lunch menu for 30.95 (add $10 for VIP…read moreoption) so it sounded like a good option. The thing I've always liked about LaMei is that they always have fresh options. For AYCE the portions are pretty good. I wasn't expecting to get as much as I did for an order, so something to think about when placing orders. Sometimes you might get a couple of lonely mushrooms or 3 green leaves for a serving of Bok Choy. That was not the case here. The fish and meats were fresh and if you opt for the VIP option, there are appetizers included to nibble on while you cook your other stuff. You also get some more premium options and the hand pulled noodles had a nice chew to them. The service was good. They were efficient with cleaning plates as we used them and the food came out quickly. The sauce station has all the staples you'd expect to assemble your sauce. The AYCE option makes things a bit more affordable, but even if you don't use it, the fresh food will make it worthwhile.
