High end chinese restaurant and market within walking distance on Broadway. Its big and active and is much higher quality than any of the other store or restaurants that are its immediate neighbor.. Great duck, sim sum and they have a large open kitchen with a rotating menu. Market - gift shop has well curated collection of cooking books utensils and food items. If you want Chinese food this will be more expensive but make up for it in ambience and quality of food.. 2nd floor is a bar - pretty darn cool and new (2017)
