I remember thinking why chow fun doesn't actually taste like this! It definitely took the chow fun experience to another level and I think others agreed. The noodles were gone in less than five minutes. The Chimale!! This is a Chinese Mexican tamale with Kung Pao Chicken inside. We had the kung pao chicken and Chinese bbq pork tacos. I personally liked all their dishes that had kun...
