One is the Hong Kong Flower Lounge - the original location is on the west side of El Camino about 1 to 2 miles north of Millbrae Avenue their second location, a glitzier-looking place, is on the corner of El Camino and Millbrae. The second restaurant is Fook Yuen, on the west side of El Camino about 4 blocks north of Millbrae. Both focus (although not exclusively) on Cantonese. In addition, the Flower Lounge has excellent dim sum - the best I've found on the peninsula. So, if you like Chinese food, you've lucked out. Al Eisner

Anywhere to eat in Millbrae?

Take the Burlingame/Broadway exit from 101 and head away from the bay. Bua Tong is on the right, about 1 1/2 blocks before El Camino Real. Family-run (aren't most of them?) - neat and clean premises in an old building - flavors consistent for almost ten years - really great Thai food. Also, you'll meet probably the tallest Thai family in the area (the two brothers that wait tables are over 6 ft). I highly recommend the place.
