Great, afforable chinese/thai food around N Austin183, Mopac? (Spring: house, live in)

[eastontracks]

I don't live in austin, I have a sis who just moved so hopefully the area I stated makes sense. Anyway, looking for some chinese/thai food at a good price around the north Austin area. Often it's those smaller business' that normally have a good flavor and added twist to their foods. Any info would be great.

Oh and replies before this afternoon.

183 seems to have the highest density of Asian restaurants and stores in Austin.

Sunflower is Vietnamese food, but it is very tasty. The service can be slow though. In that same shopping center, Cafe De Bella has pretty good banh mi and Din Ho serves Chinese BBQ.

Drive a little further NW up 183 to Spicewood Springs Rd and you have Asia Cafe (Sichuan chinese) and Chen's Noodle House (knife cut noodles). Also, if you drive up N. Lamar from 183, you'll find the Chinatown shopping center, which features a huge Asian grocery store, one or two Chinese BBQ joints, and a few Vietnamese sandwich shops.

Madam Mam's on Anderson Lane off of MoPac serves great Thai food. It's in the shopping center with the Alamo Drafthouse.
