Restaurant- Chow's Noodle House

We went out with to a nice dinner with our old friends Bill and Yvette...sorry Bill, I mean long-time friends, Bill and Yvette, and tried a new place, Chow Noodle House (http://chownoodlehouse.webs.com/index.htm) in Hillcrest.

Well, as usual, parking in Hillcrest in problematic, but we were lucky, finding a spot right around the corner from the University Ave. restaurant. Chow is mostly Thai, but offers noodle dishes from around Asia, and other unique dishes too, not just noodles. The Thai iced tea we ordered was very nice, and then came the main dishes, we ordered four and all shared.

Bill ordered the pad thai, Yvette the pineapple fried rice, Sharlynn had the pad ginger with chicken and I had mango chicken. All the dishes were very good, with my mango chicken being popular at our table. It is kind of like orange chicken, typical in Chinese places, but with a very nice mango sauce and pieces of mango. As I said we all enjoyed every dish, and the prices were quite reasonable. And though we did not order dessert, our waiter still brought over some tapioca for all of us, on the house! How nice is that??

We will want to try more of Chow Noodle House's menu, but we all enjoyed our first impression!
