🌟 LA’s Classic Cantonese Gem – Every Dish is a Hit! 🥢✨
Tried Island’s Restaurant in Alhambra for the first time — a well-established spot packed with regulars! By 6 PM, there were already 11 tables filled 🏮 🍲 XO Sauce Clam Duo Two types of clams — red (like clam roe) and white (tender meat), both wonderfully crispy! Coated in aromatic XO sauce with soft, chewy king oyster mushrooms. Rich and layered — a must-order! ✅ 🦪 Oyster & Pork Belly Clay Pot Fresh oysters wok-fried with crispy pork belly and fried tofu in a sizzling clay pot. Savory, fragrant, and perfectly balanced — definitely order this! ✅ 🦀 Typhoon Shelter Crab Crispy shell coated with golden fried garlic — so addictive! The crab meat was fresh, sweet, and pulled apart in delicate strands. Couldn’t stop eating! 🥜 Free Peanut Sweet Soup with Tangyuan Complimentary but far from basic! Silky peanut broth with soft, chewy black sesame tangyuan — warm and comforting 🍡❤️ No wonder this classic Cantonese spot stays so popular — great vibe, consistent flavors, and a loyal crowd. It’s not easy to keep customers coming back for years! #LACantonese #LAEats #IslandsRestaurant #AlhambraEats #CantoneseFood #MustTry
