Description

Founded in 2023 by Becky Lin, the restaurant is a tribute to her former-chef father and her two daughters. The menu draws directly from her family culinary history, spanning childhood memories in China to years in her father's kitchens. Instead of standard takeout fare, the kitchen serves regional, homemade plates like Grandma’s peanut noodles and pan-fried curry chicken dumplings. The space is an unpretentious, highly compact nook where the focus stays strictly on the food, meaning it fills up quickly during dinner rushes.
