Grace is a small shop that can be described as "unpretentious". Although it is called a cafe, I always come here to have dinner. It is very similar to the dishes that would be on the dining table at home, and the atmosphere also makes people feel like they are at home.

Located near Zhongshan Station, about a 3-minute walk away. Surrounded by the bustling business district, this place feels like a paradise. It is not the kind of Internet beauty cafe that can be used to take photos and check in in the social media generation, but a simple and simple place. family restaurant

In fact, the business here is also very busy, and it is always full during dinner time; the food items sold here are very simple, there are only five kinds: pan-fried salmon, shredded pork with Beijing sauce, Kung Pao chicken, fresh mushroom beef, and General Tso's chicken

It includes a main meal, a bowl of rice, a bowl of soup, a small plate of cabbage, some dried tofu and fried eggs (these two are really very small and can be said to be for decoration), as well as cakes and drinks after the meal.

In addition to fresh mushroom beef, I have tried all other main meals, and my personal favorite is General Tso's chicken! The chicken is lightly fried and paired with a slightly sweet sauce, which is great!
The second place is the pan-fried salmon, which comes with lemon slices and is delicious dipped in salt and pepper, but the salmon is $20 more expensive than other items.

But…General Tso’s chicken is sold out today….Sorry🥲
So we ordered a portion of Kung Pao Chicken for $280 and a portion of Shredded Pork with Beijing Sauce for $280.

(Write your thoughts on each meal below the photo)

Overall, this is a great place to have a simple meal with friends, and then chat while having snacks after the meal. The food doesn't look like anything special, but it tastes just like what my mother cooked. It's simple and delicious. I want to eat here every two or three weeks

Because I live nearby, I am a frequent visitor here. When I want to eat something for dinner, I often casually ask my family, "Hey, do you want some Grace?". My family also likes this restaurant very much and recommends it to everyone~

A simple but heartwarming dinner for the two of us~ (Poached eggs are purchased separately)

Kung Pao Chicken I added a lot of chili peppers and peanuts and stir-fried it. I think the spiciness is medium to spicy. It’s spicy, delicious and refreshing. People who like spicy food will definitely like it! But I can’t eat spicy food very well, so I need to drink a lot of water.

Shredded Pork with Beijing Sauce Mainly the flavor of sweet noodle sauce and soy sauce, the sauce is full on the shredded pork, the meat is not dry, and it goes very well with rice. I usually order this dish when General Tso's Chicken is sold out

The meal will include rice, soup, cabbage, some dried tofu and fried eggs. Cabbage and dried tofu are both delicious. The disadvantage is that the portions are quite small, and the dried tofu is almost only 3-4 small pieces. (However, I found that some customers will order dried tofu directly. If you like it, you can also try ordering one.)

The soup that came with it was mediocre. I didn’t really like today’s soup. Although it was quite rich in ingredients, it had no flavor.

Let’s get to the point! I need notes here! Be sure to ask the boss to add a poached egg (half-boiled)! Although it costs $20 more, this soy sauce egg with rice is really great. I struggle every time because of the $20 price tag, but I still order it in the end 😂 Put it on the rice, the soy sauce and half-boiled egg yolk will flow out, eat it with the rice, it's great!

Dessert after meal is chiffon cake and drink The cake comes with a small dollop of fresh cream. When I first saw it, I thought the cake was definitely dry. But when I ate it, I was quite surprised. In fact, the inside of the cake was quite moist (but the one I ate today was a little dry. 🙃) For drinks, you can choose coffee, black tea, milk tea and juice. We drink milk tea every time. It is actually black tea with creamer. It can be made sugar-free, but believe me, it tastes much better with sugar.
