Nice China Cafe@Torrance ★★

Great Cantonese Comfort Food in Torrance. Hidden gem. Just as its name, it's Nice. Roasted Duck as a whole is $30.95, but for $6 more, you can enjoy the duck cooked 2 ways - Roasted and Peking style. It's worth it. Just the shrimp chips got soggy from having the Duck Skin on top. If you want specific dishes such as Signature Pork Rib Served in a Pumpkin, Roasted Duck, Lobster, Steamed Fish, or the amazing Almond Tang Yuan Dessert, you will need to call-in to order in advance. Not sure why Almond Tang Yuan was $14.50 last time and $20 this time? Maybe they raised the price. BYOB. Call to make reservation.

Peking Tavern@Downtown LA ★★★

Friends & Family Soft Opening. Chinese Gastropub by the two Andrew's, opening soon in Downtown LA. Innovative concept. Drinks were fantastic. Chinese food were great and authentic, esp. the gluten-free dumplings. Fried Pork Dumplings were very juicy. I recommend eating it in one bite to avoid squirting. The Pulled-Noodles were Made from Scratch in the Kitchen. See the action live through the window. Scallion Pancake was very nice too. Great place to hang out. $3 flat rate parking lot within a block away.
