After a bad experience across the road we took our 4 friends to this restaurant to continue the evening. As always the Yum Cha Chinese Restaurant never fails to satisfy. Because there were six of us, we decided on the $25 per head banquet and some bottles of wine. This banquet consists of chicken and corn soup and mixed fried... More
