604 Foodtography

Open for almost two years now, the name is a clever play on Dynasty..it’s also not chinese, it’s actually more Taiwanese and Shanghainese food.

The kitchen is clearly displayed behind glass windows, so you can watch the chefs cook your food, flames flying out underneath the woks. No picture from me because the restaurant was pretty packed at the time and I want to avoid taking pictures of other customers.

Everyday of the week they have specials. It’s displayed on the door. Wednesdays are the best, order a bowl of Beef Noodle Soup and get 6 potstickers free. You can also have it to go so you don’t have to wait for seats as they can get really busy sometimes.

New menus! They’ve put in pictures too, so even before your food comes you can start drooling.

Xiao long baos are made fresh to order, and you get a basket of 8 for $7.We got two baskets.

Vinegar and ginger for dipping the xiao long baos.

Drunken chicken. ..I forgot how much it was.

Hot and sour soup. Was neither hot or sour. What a disappointment. $3.50 for small.

Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup, slightly spicy. I think this was also $7.

Add as much greens as you want [cilantro, green onions, suan cai..?]

Mondays special of the day, stirfried home-made noodles with seafood and pork. $5.50.

Come here for

• xiao long baos [soupy dumplings]
• taiwanese beef noodle soup

Service – Pretty standard for a chinese restaurant.

Food – I like the open kitchen, it’s great fun to watch them cook. Food’s good, no bad experiences here.
