See the fast-paced action behind the counter and in the kitchen through the eyes of a young helper, whose favorite dinner turns out to be another popular ethnic food. (Hint: It's not Chinese!) Chicken Chow Fun, Egg Foo Young, Buddha's Delight — no matter what your favorite dish is, feast on the delectable tastes and savory smells offered here, and order from your neighborhood Chinese takeout tonight!
