GoodGoodTaste Home Cooking@East LA ★★★

Impressive Hong Kong Home Cooking. My 2nd week ordering. Fantastic quality Hong Kong style comfort food that feels like home, and better. Love the Steamed Milk with a lot of expensive healthy Fish Maw (花膠). Aroma similar to Japanese Bonito flakes. Very healthy. Pork was amazing and perfectly seasoned with a kick of garlic. Chinese Eel Rice was somewhat similar to Japanese Eel. Recommend baking for Pudding Bread. East LA pickup. Follow Facebook link for more. Cantonese/ Chinese only.

Impressive Hong Kong Home Cooking. Fantastic Hong Kong style comfort food that feels like home, and better. Found them randomly on Facebook. Absolutely love the Beef Satay Vermicelli Noodles. So delicious that I wanted to cry at first bite. Chicken Wings with kicks of garlic was bomb. Squid & Water Chestnut in Minced Meat Pie created another layer of interesting texture. Added on 32oz Crocodile Soup. (Crocodile Meat in America!!) It's delicious and super healthy at the same time. Who says healthy food cannot be tasty? Crocodile Meat was kind of in between chicken & pork. Amazing customer service. $55 for 3 assorted dishes (changes weekly), 32oz healthy nutritional soup, white rice, and 12oz dessert soup.
