Inexpensive Seafood to be found in Chinatown!

If you've a hankering for seafood, but short on dough, some of the best deals around can be found in Chicago Chinatown (or any Chinatown around the nation for that matter). One of my favorite deals can be found on the family-style set menu from Lee Wing Wah.

For $40 (before tax & tip) you get 4 entrees, rice, soup du jour and dessert. The set items include:

1) A whole live Dungeness crab cooked any way you want (try the traditional scallion & ginger!)

2) Fish fillets sauteed with yellow chive and seasonal vegetables (usually gai-lan or yu-choy).

3) An unbelievable, overflowing plate of lightly battered, salt & chili pepper shrimp.

4) Fourth dish I usually pick ground fish stuffed tofu in a clay pot.

Dessert is either cut fresh fruit or sometimes Cantonese sweet dessert soups. Pots of tea are often on the house.

The wonderful thing about this deal is that all four dishes can be substituted from a large list of other entrees. Sometimes, I like to substitute a plate of crispy salt & pepper calamari for the 4th dish.

Family-style deals are available for parties 2 and up, printed in both Chinese and English AND best of all, available for takeout (you don't get soup and dessert though). Menu items are often portrayed with pictures which are true to the dish you will receive.
