Cititour Review:
This Upper East Side staple of Cantonese cuisine and all-purpose Chinese takeout offers a variety of classic Chinese dishes that have been tweaked just enough to offer a new version of old favorites.American standbys like the Pineapple Fried Rice (9.50) is chock full of chicken and shrimp which, when paired with the sweet pineapple, offers more than enough for a full meal. It's also a great spot to get together with several friends and share a variety of dishes: the Orange Flavor Beef (12) is excellent and flavorful with just the right amount of spice, and the Honey Tso's Chicken (12) offers a sweet kick to an old favorite.
For those watching their waistlines, plentiful Steamed Vegetables with Chicken or Shrimp (13) is a tasty option, though the Barbecued Spare Ribs (8.25) are nearly impossible to pass up.
The 88th street location of this Upper East Side joint offers windowside seating for ample people-watching on the busy 3rd Avenue corner, but regulars often pick up a to go order or call in for delivery, which always arrives on time and piping hot.
