Saint's Alp Teahouse 0

Saint's Alp Teahouse

Saint’s Alps has always provided good quality and delicious food over the years. They used to stay open really late because they were our go to for late night meals. Prices were reasonable. Great service. Restaurant was clean. They were good for groups. Portions were ample when sharing.

Wasn’t sure I even liked bubble tea, but Saint Alp’s was recommended to me for it. It was amazing!

Ken Kee Restaurant Hong Kong

We saw an Instagram video about the afternoon tea deal at Ken Kee, so we had to try it (this was in May). There's quite a wide array of options that you can get for their weekday 2-5pm $10 for a drink and dish deal. Since we had already had lunch, we got the HK french toast and the ovaltine french toast. We also got hot milk teas. The milk tea is literally milk+tea, so you have to add any sugar yourself. I wasn't really in the mood for it -- even after adding 3 packs of sugar, it still wasn't as sweet as I would've liked (which perhaps speaks to how much sugar goes into milk teas!) The HK french toast was not as good as the ones I have had in the past. The bread was rather dense and chewy rather than being fluffy, so it was kind of hard to get through, and the flavoring wasn't very strong on the outside. The ovaltine french toast was really cool -- when you cut it, the condensed milk filling/topping oozes out. I thought this was much better in terms of flavor. Interestingly, it tasted a bit like peanut butter. Overall I enjoyed the vibes of the restaurant with the neon lights and cute food illustrations on the table, but I probably wouldn't get the toasts again. I've been here many times before in the distant past to get dinner with my family, and I do have good memories (first time having egg tofu!) so I'll probably be back someday...

Located right in the heart of Chinatown Square plaza, adjacent to one of the main pagodas, you'll find Ken Kee which is a perfect place to try street food inspired dishes. You can't miss the neon lights! The build-your-own cart noodles are especially addictive as are the appetizers. The chicken wings are marinated similarly to Chinese duck but are fall-apart tender.

Don't base your order from the pictures they provide. Does not look anything like the examples nor does it include everything advertised. The food was okay. Nothing special nor flavorful. Would not give it above a 3 star. Only food item that was tasty was the bone marrow soup. The servings for the other food options were large but thats because its mainly noodles. The noodles were over cooked as well so it was difficult to eat.

Tucked away into the new Chinatown of Chicago, you find the pan-Asian restaurant M with a mixed menu from China, Japan, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam. Great place when you can’t make up your mind, or want to mix several Asian kitchens. Food very well tasting and reasonably priced. Service limited, and atmosphere ok. But a nice place you won’t walk out hungry from. - Value for money? Yes - Worth a detour? No - Best for (occasion)? A full variety of Asian food - Would I go back? Yes

Stopped in on a whim, and glad we did! Started off with egg rolls and beef sticks. The egg rolls were large and fresh, the beef sticks crispy and tender. Then decided to go with the scallion pancakes and garlic spare ribs... yum! The ribs were also crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, the order more than enough for two. Scallion pancakes light and tasty...would reccommend!

The owner was so gracious in allowing our larger party to sit outside with various food given some allergies. The level of kindness in ensuring we knew what we were ordering was unrivaled especially in comparison to other service lacking in the chicago area. The chow mein was truly a standout from the entire trip!
