One of my all time favorite comfort dish is Beef Chow Mein. Since moving down here in LA, most restaurants call it Beef with Pan Fried Noodles.

Every time I go to a Chinese restaurant, I need to give their pan fried noodles a try. So here at Little Hong Kong Cafe, we did. We also ordered their Hong Kong style Wonton Soup with Noodles (another fave of mine) and Vegetable Egg Rolls.

First came the Vegetable Egg Rolls. They were good. Light and crispy. Then came the Wonton Soup with Noodles. Whoa! I was blown away by the saltiness. The broth was not edible. The dumplings were average. Alas, came the Beef with Pan Fried Noodles. We noticed at first it tasted a bit on the sweet side, then better. It was ok. Just ok.

I had high hopes for this place from reading other reviews. Maybe they had a really off day, substitute chef? I don’t know…I wasn’t impressed. Like I said earlier, just ok. Service was fine though.
