Green Lake Restaurant - Pork siumai

TLDR: It's a Chinese restaurant that you can trust. The english menu won't tell you everything they…read moremake, and you will be rewarded by knowing certain foods in Chinese. Tofu and Fish hotpot: Fried white fish, fried tofu, string beans, bell peppers in a sauce that is probably reduced chicken stock. I'm biased since it's one of my favorite chinese dishes. I don't know when this specific dish is amazing, but I can tell you when it's bad. Green Lake's version is anything but bad. Shrimp Stuffed Tofu: We were given a sample since they were trying something new. The sauce is similar to the tofu hotpot but has a porkier feel because of the ground pork within the dish. The tofu is the same, but the way they fried it is different, so it took a step up. The shrimp was fine, and I think they should have this on their menu. Whole Fried Chicken: It's fine. Didn't love it. There's no batter to speak of at all, and you're reliant on the spicy sauce and ginger sauce provided. Stir Fried French Beans w/ Salted Fish: Crunchy French Beans, and very salty salted fish. Not my favorite, but it keeps things different. Hot prawn salad with broccoli: The broccoli was just boiled. Nothing to talk about. The pawn was fried and bathed in mayonnaise. What's not to like? Pork Chop: This is another Chinese restaurant staple. 85% of the chinese porkchops that you eat will taste the same. This one is no different. Hokkien Fried Rice: My chinese restaurant guilty pleasure. How else can you get a shrimp fried rice bathed in an umami sauce? The restaurant did a really good job with this and I'm glad that I asked if they had it (in chinese). Service: It was a slow night, so we had all the attention that our table needed. Ambiance: The location is big and can support small families to larger gatherings. They have a private area that fits 30+ people, so they look like the go-to spot for parties.

Went for Dim Sum on Christmas Day. Luckily we had a reservation since the restaurant was packed and…read morethere were lots of big families waiting. This is authentic Dim Sum. They roll the carts through the restaurant offering lots of dumplings, soups, noodle dishes and more. We loved everything except the Turnip Cake was way too salty. Someone dumped salt or too much soy sauce onto this dish. Also we were offered vegetarian dumplings that had some greens in it, but was mostly pork. Be sure to ask about the ingredients if you don't want pork or meat in a dish. We've been here before and all other dishes were great...Chinese broccoli sautéed, dumplings with shrimp, eggplant with shrimp, sautéed wide noodles with some veggies, soup dumplings, etc. finally tried the mango dessert. It was yummy.

Chicken and Corn soup: Warm, and it hits the middle point of clean and hearty. I was scared that it was gonna be tasteless, but I got enough chicken and corn to not feel that way. Pork Chop: This is another Chinese restaurant staple. 85% of the chinese porkchops that you eat will taste the same. This one is no different. Tofu with Salted Fish: It was fine. The tofu did a good job defusing the saltiness of the fish, and the dish was generally well balanced. Objectively, this is probably one of their better dishes. I just feel that it didn't have the pop that I was looking for. Hot prawn salad with broccoli: The broccoli was just boiled. Nothing to talk about. The pawn was fried and bathed in mayonnaise. What's not to like? Yang Chow Fried Rice: A Chinese restaurant staple. 90% of the Yang Chow Fried Rice that you will eat will taste the same. This one stayed with the majority. Service; It was fine. The place wasn't busy, so getting what we needed wasn't hard. Ambiance: This place was built to support multiple small to medium families, and maybe one to two tables that can support 8-10 people. It's in a quiet area, so the crowd wasn't too crazy.

Dinner here was really good overall and a solid experience from start to finish…read more I went with the sesame chicken and steamed white rice, which was exactly what I wanted. I also tried pork buns for the first time. It was not really my favorite, but it was still flavorful. My friend had the steamed sea bass, which was cooked perfectly and came with a really nice, tasty sauce. Service was excellent. Our waitress was very sweet, patient, and attentive, offering recommendations and explaining the menu without being overbearing. They start you off with Chinese tea and a small plate of peanuts, which is a nice touch--but if you have a peanut allergy, make sure to let them know right away since it's placed on the table automatically. The meal ends with fresh cantaloupe, which was ice cold, sweet, and a refreshing finish. The restaurant itself is a nice size with reasonable prices. We went on a Saturday night and there was no wait. It could use a bit of sprucing up, but it was clean and comfortable. Parking is easy, and the restaurant sits right on Route 46, so it's not hard to find at all. They accept all major credit cards and cash.

Authentic dim sum restaurants are hard to come by in NJ, unless you venture to Central Jersey. So…read morewhen I found Qin Dynasty in North Jersey, I was willing to make the trek - especially since I had a dim sum craving one weekend. We got there at around 11 on a Saturday. It was crowded but not packed yet. We were seated right away (your whole party needs to be there). There are so many options for dim sum - some that you don't even typically see in Brooklyn/Chinatown. For example, I saw some lobster tails, and a giant cheesy oyster that looked really good but I'm sure they were $$$. We stuck to the dim sum basics - ha gao, shumai, beef churng fun, chicken feet, chicken sticky rice, steamed cha siu baos, and tofu pudding. I don't have any complaints about the dim sum. All were good and some were even better than ones in NYC. And let me tell you - they do not skimp on the meat here. The ha gaos and shumais were so plump! Since it's a rarity that we get to have authentic Chinese food, we also ordered the salted fish and diced chicken fried rice, and the pan-fried noodles with beef. Both were good and had lots of meat. Service was surprisingly attentive - unlike in NYC where it takes forever to flag down a waiter. Our waiter was always nearby and seemed happy to help with our requests of water, chili oil, etc. I think we might have found our go-to Cantonese restaurant. It's just a shame it isn't closer to home.

This is a hidden gem in Brooklyn. We came here to celebrate a birthday with a party of 12, and the…read morerestaurant thoughtfully gave us a private room. They even offered a complimentary bottle of wine and a few small appetizer dishes, which was a very nice touch. It's a seafood restaurant and seafood is clearly their specialty. They also have a live seafood market, so we were able to pick our own seafood. Everything was very fresh and delicious. Other dishes, the chicken was surprisingly tasty as well. Since it was a birthday celebration, we took our time and stayed a bit longer. Even though we ended up staying past their closing time, they didn't rush us to leave. We really appreciated that and had a wonderful time there.

Good prices on family set meals. Came here twice for celebrations and ordered the family meal for…read more8. The meal includes geoduck sashimi, jellyfish & mixed appetizer, soup, steamed fish, crab & lobster with sticky rice, abalone, steamed shrimp, noodles, and veggies. Some dishes were bigger than others. Both times I came they didn't have abalone so we substitute the dish for garlic scallop (which I prefer). The menu also says it comes with house special dessert but we never gotten any. For any seafood, it's market price plus they add a 30% processing fee, which is strange to me. For a Chinese restaurant which usually does not charge tax if you pay with cash, they charge tax here whether you pay by card or cash. The restaurant is pretty big and spacious. They have pretty large tables, suitable for parties and celebrations. There's a private space upstairs with 3 large tables for parties. The restaurant is pretty slow in the afternoon.

We finally made time to stop by Wow Cafe! Don't blink or you'll miss this place. There's not a…read moresolid parking lot for this building but you can park behind the plaza next to it where Coco is located and walk to the front. Very happy to have a Hong Kong style Cha Chan Tang restaurant right here in Edison, NJ. While there are a few places in NYC, its nice to see Jersey finally get one too. The stars if today were the appetizer dishes. The rice noodles with the special peanut sauce was 100% the best and exactly what you'd expect when you order that dish. The squid and popcorn chicken were both amazing and fried lightly but with a great crispy texture. The small pineapple bun with butter was delicious. We actually had it as a starter and again for dessert. While we loved the apps, the baked rice with pork chop and pepper steak rice bowls were just ok. They weren't amazingly flavorful, but they were still tasty with heavy portions so the value was there. We had HK style milk tea and topped off our meal with their special creamy french toast. Overall we left overly full and didn't have to pay too much. Wow Cafe is very affordable and the staff is very friendly and fast to cater to your needs. It may not look like much on the outside, but the food definitely brings me back and hits the spot!

Torn between a 3 or 4, I gave it a 4 for the appetizers that I got and liked. I didn't get a chance…read moreto try the main menu since we weren't that hungry. We got a small pineapple butter bun ($1.99), Rice noodles roll ($5.99), and crispy popcorn chicken ($8.99). They were freshly made and hot when I got it, and I didn't have to wait too long to get it. You can't mess up the rice noodles and popcorn chicken, and they didn't. The rice noodles were chewy and flavorful thanks to the sauce. The popcorn chicken was crispy and good flavors as well. The small pineapple butter bun for $1.99 was not worth it for the price. Small and nothing special. The drink I got was just okay... it didn't feel like it had much flavors. Parking was uh questionable since I'm not from the area. It looked like there was some parking in the front but very limited. We end up circling around and found they had parking in the back lot. The inside of the restaurant was well decorated. It had walls with names of some cities in Hong Kong like Central and Mongkok. I found it cute and reminded me of Hong Kong just a little.

It benefits from the neighborhood. I just became aware of its existence while looking for an Asian alternative to all the usual suspects in the area. It surprised me being next door to Gold Coin II, and directly behind Little Dragon, yet without any exterior signage. For $6.99 I loaded up a to-go container with General Tso's Chicken, Sesame Chicken, Chicken & String Beans, Fried Rice, Dumpling and Egg Roll. All food tastes best when right off the stove, and clearly I was not tasting the optimal dishes by the time I was sitting at my dining room table. Still, those are the cards Mai and I were dealt. In each case, the sauces were a thickish goo, with flavor varying little between the General and Sesame. The former was very mildly spiced, but predominantly sweet; while the later was unabashedly sugary. The String Beans were steamed and retained a slight snap, which I appreciated. The Egg Roll was not good, as it seemed dominantly shredded cabbage, and not hot enough to keep its skin crispy. The Pork Dumpling was fished out of a soy/ginger soup that was absorbed into the thick skin, and the stuffing was ample; yet the taste was lacking. All in all, for strictly take out Chinese/American, the offerings were adequate, but not nearly as good as most surrounding sit down restaurants, which in and of themselves are at best only Okay. Mai's Garden has a lovely setting for being an in-house vendor, but the actual victuals leave a lot to be desired. Nice idea. Poor execution.
