We had a particularly memorable meal at this upscale Chinese restaurant in Falls Church. Great food, a busy dining ambiance, friendly service and fairly reasonably-priced.

Garlic sprouts stir-fried with chicken

We tried two of their specialties - firecracker jumbo shrimp with green and red chilies (slightly pricey @ $43) was very flavorful and delicious (and worth the price). Not very spicy and a little dry. So if you are looking to have it with rice, you should combine it with a spicy sauce on the side. We had it with some schezwan sauce on the side.

Another of their house specialties is the garlic sprouts stir-fried served with a meat of your choice. We had it with chicken. Flavorful enough to be enjoyed with rice.

Another dish for which the restaurant is known is the Peking duck - a whole duck is carved at the table (served with sauces). It was delicious. Portions were large enough to be shared by larger groups and so might be a good idea to go when you have company.
