Of course, you're welcome to post LINKS to copyrighted photos. In fact, I encourage you to post links to your own photos, to keep this thread from becoming overloaded with pictures and, therefore, slow-loading.

Thanks.

Add your own photos or give proper credit! What's so hard about citing the photographer ?!

Please tell me I am mistaken and that it still exists ...

Anyone remember? Thanks!

Hey missionhome,yes,there are many Chinese Restaurants,so much competition. It has to be good,otherwise they can't survive.Because the Chinese here are from China,Taiwan,Hong Kong. We would always criticize something if it's no the right taste,then they lose customers.

There are also Vietnamese restaurants,mostly in Rosemead and Alhambra.
