Charlotte's New Chinese Food Gem! A Must-Try! π
While passing through South Tryon Street yesterday, I accidentally discovered this newly opened Asian food treasure π―. Walking in with a "let's try it" mindset, I was completely won over from the very first bite! This is definitely the most authentic Asian flavor I've experienced in Charlotte, and the wallet-friendly prices are truly touching! π π Tomato Malatang: The Broth is So Amazing You'll Want to Take It Home π As a malatang enthusiast who has tried various Charlotte restaurants, this shop's tomato broth is truly one-of-a-kind! π The soup base is simmered for 6 hours using fresh tomatoes, achieving a perfect sweet-sour balance that is both rich and appetite-whetting. Special praise for their ingredients: tender beef rolls, tofu puffs soaked in broth, and crisp wood ear mushrooms. Best enjoyed with rice noodles - each strand coated with the tomato's freshness, you'll want to finish every last drop of soup! π₯£ π Golden Fried Chicken: Divine Crispy Outside, Tender Inside β¨ This fried chicken completelys my understanding of American-style fried chicken! π Using a secret marinating recipe, the chicken is soaked in special sauce for 12 hours before frying. The crust is so crispy it crackles with each bite, while the inside maintains surprising tenderness and juiciness. Most remarkably, it's not greasy at all, maintaining excellent texture even when cooled. Paired with the shop's homemade mildly spicy dipping sauce, it's simply a flavor revelation! πΆοΈ π Additional Information: Address: 8943 S Tryon St A, Charlotte, NC 28273 Recommended order: Tomato malatang with rice noodles and beef rolls π Must-try: Golden fried chicken with special dipping sauce Price range: $ (Inexpensive) π° π‘ Pro Tips: Perfect for: solo dining, casual meetings, quick lunches π Best time to visit: Weekday afternoons to avoid crowds π₯ Don't miss: Their daily specials written on the board π β Why This Place Stands Out: Authentic Asian flavors that transport you right to the streets of China π Generous portions that guarantee satisfaction π₯ Spotless kitchen visible from the dining area π§Ό Friendly staff who genuinely care about your dining experience π¨βπ³ Whether you're craving comforting noodles, crispy chicken, or just looking for an affordable yet quality meal, this place delivers on all fronts.
