Lai Lai Dumpling House

Canonical cheap Chinese food . Dumplings are well prepared, if you like the thick-skin style of dumplings. Dumpling sauce is excellent too. This is the only restaurant worth ordering general tso's chicken in, that I am aware of. It is well prepared with a medium batter, meaty chunks of chicken, and a nice sauce. Request that they make the sauce spicy, for an extra kick. Other canonical dishes: triple meat flat fried rice noodles, mongolian beef, kung pow fish, shrimp fried dumplings, pork steamed dumplings, shrimp steamed dumplings, beef with broccoli. Not highly authentic, but good tasting and cheap. Visit Chinese Restaurant in Houston Guide for more reviews.

Houston Attractions

Houston Chinatown is a fascinating area to immerse yourself in another culture while visiting Houston. The district offers a full array of retail shops, restaurants, Chinese groceries, theaters, churches, temples, and the offices of the Chinese Merchants’ Association right in southwest Houston. Driving down Bellaire Blvd. between Boone and Fondren, Chinese street signs begin to emerge along side shopping centers, businesses, markets, and an abundance of restaurants to satisfy authentic Chinese food cravings. Stop for lunch, buy a few gifts, or wander around the local markets and absorb the Chinese culture that has grown up in Houston.
