 After reading your review, this place has been on my mind all week. It's only five
 minutes away from my apartment.

 I went there this afternoon. Ordered to go the Phad Thai (chicken) and, after talking to
 the chef, the Mongolian Beef. He said they were famous for it, and I can see why. It was
 excellent.  The beef pretty much melted in my mouth. The Phad Thai was good, too, one of
 the better ones I've had.

 The Hot and Sour soup, pretty much an Oriental staple, had big chunks of tofu and a
 little more zip than the usual. Generous portions of everything.

 The restaurant is the first one I've been to that's located in what feels and looks like
 an office complex.  The waitress was friendly, and Danny (one of the cooks) came right
 over to say hello and recommend the Mongolian Beef.  When I told him I was there because
 of your review and where I found it, he was surprised and pleased.

 They have a great menu, and the big bonus - their lunch hours are 11:00 to 4:00, with 12
 dishes for 5.95, plus a soup, salad, and fried rice. For a Boeing employee like me, that
 means I stop after work, and get dinner for a lunch price. Next time, I'm going for the
 Panang or the Swimming Angel - get two dinners, combine them, and I've got my lunch for
 the next day.

 Thanks for the recommendation!

 Chris
