Sweet Rice Asian Express — Restaurant in Santa Fe

I popped into this spot in Santa Fe while I was there for work for a couple of days, and let me tell you, it's a gem! The owner is seriously one of the friendliest people I've ever met. She doesn't skimp on the food either – the portions are huge, and everything tastes delicious.

I also tried the fish cake appetizer and crab rangoon with sweet Chile sauce, both were prepared perfectly. Fish cakes were like nothing I've tasted before. They had a wonderful texture of sausage patties and hints of green bean and lime leaf. I couldn't tell they were made of fish. They were Incredible, I'd...
