chinese restaurant rec for Boston
quick recommendation for those interested in good, authentic chinese food in the Boston area:
Shanghai Gate
204 Harvard Avenue
Allston, Boston
617-566-7344
http://www.boston.com/dining/restaurant/1771
Sichuan Garden (spicy!)
295 Washington St.
Brookline, MA 02445
http://restaurants.boston.com/restaurants-view-6177341870-sichuan_garden-brookline-ma.htm
sadly, there aren't too many good ones around that i know of. i'm sure more exist, but i haven't found them yet, i guess. but the chinese restaurants in Boston do not compare to the ones in SF.
for decent dim sum (Chinese brunch, almost like tapas where you sample many different items both sweet and savory) in Boston:
China Pearl
9 Tyler St
Boston, MA 02111
(617) 426-4388
Hei La Moon
88 Beach St
Boston, MA
(617) 338-8813
dim sum is very popular on the weekends. anytime after 10am, it gets really busy. if you don't want to wait and don't mind waking up early on a weekend, that's the way to go.
