Kim Wah Chinese BBQ Restaurant Review:


Located in a sad strip center, Kim Wah doesn’t look like much from the exterior. Mirrors and red paper lanterns don’t do a lot to enliven the fluorescent-bright interior, either. But the kitchen seems to have recovered from a slide with a menu blending standard Chinese fare with the “authentic” dishes that give the place its special appeal. Ignore the lo meins and direct your attention to dishes such as the soy sauce chicken, the eggplant with minced pork and spicy bean sauce, or the special fish maw soup. It’s okay to pass on the braised intestine, but do consider anything with duck---except maybe the duck feet with oyster sauce. (Peking duck is available daily until it runs out.) Congee with preserved egg is also likely to appeal only to the true connoisseur. Simple ma po tofu can be satisfying, however, and vegetable dishes such as sautéed hollow vegetable with garlic and bean curd routinely exceed expectations.
