1. Osha Thai Restaurant
Another stop at Osha, just because it's close enough to the place I was staying at.
Now, my friend did mention the cute waiters 5 months ago, and I did not see any during our lunch date. Coming from my friend's mouth, they probably used their B…More »

More like 3.5 stars, but I gave it the extra .5 star because of service.

My friend found this place, because she knew I was a huge tea house person. Since it was pretty close to where she's living, why not?

13. Yank Sing
My friend bluntly told me that we were going to a dim sum place that was COMPLETELY white-washed. And boy, he was right.

Comparing to my…More »
