About the food:

With the crazy weather we are having right now (from hot and humid to rainy and cold), it's not a bad idea to eat soup noodle with fresh shrimp wanton at Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao. The noodles are very firm in texture and hand pulled. Likewise the dumplings are really fresh and the serving size good enough for sharing.
