My friend and I tried out Xi’an Famous Foods in Dickson, a restaurant I’ve walked past several times but never really notice or have plans to go to another restaurant along that strip. Menu items at Xi’an Famous Foods include various cold or hot noodle dishes like biang biang noodles, dumplings, rouguamo/roujiamo (Chinese burgers), meat […] Read more…
If you just want a fast cheap eat for lunch around Civic, here are a few spots (in no particular order). Burmese Curry Place I think it’s safe to say that most city workers know about Burmese Curry Place. It was so sad when it shut down a few years ago, but it opened back […] Read more…

I absolutely love dumplings so Li’s Dumpling Inn went to the top of my list of eateries to visit. On a Saturday, we drove over to check it out. The […] Read more…
