On a recent visit, the soup of the day -- egg flower -- was delicious, with a thick and eggy broth filled with diced tofu, peas and carrots and seasoned with fresh cilantro.

A dome of vegetable fried rice and Orange Chicken (served with a sauce made with real oranges) were equally satisfying, and both that dish and the General Tsao's Chicken were made with white meat.

Now that's a deal.
