Fortune at 7 corner ain't bad.  Peking Gourmet at Culmore (on 7 and
Carlin) has a good reputation.  Neither are my favorite Chinese
restaurants, but they're within your parameters.

Probably. Given such a restricted area, you've probably alread
explored what's there. I'm partial to Peking Gourmet Inn in the
Culmore shopping center but that's out of range, unless you put those
two wheels to work.

What have you already tried? I'm not impressed with that place next to
the Broad Street Grill. While it's not particulary Chinese, have you
tried that new Zyng noodle place?

Hi Guys,

I HAD forgotten about fortune-- and the excellent traditional Chinese
in Eden East.  I'll have to go over there and EXPLORE!  I think Peking
Gourmet was Bush Sr.'s (Reagan?) fave Chinese place.  We'll have to
give it another try.

You know how it is, though, looking for someplace to take visitors on
foot when they're visiting-- 4Ps, Anthony's, Pilin, all pretty good
places.  Remember to order Anthony's pizza well done to get that
crispy-on-the-bottom crust.

Yes, Mike, you're probably right.  I'm out of luck.  The new place
next to the Broad Street did NOT do it for us.  Don't know why-- maybe
we've had too much hold-in-the-wall chinese from DC?

Have not tried the new Zyng(sp?) place in the new Condo complex.  My
SO has been after me to give it a shot.  Have you heard anything?

Which of the Eden restaurants has good traditional Chinese?  The restaurants I've tried have been
Vietnamese (mostly pretty good) except that the one with the fine reputation (4 Sisters -- or is
it 3?) served up stuff that made my lunch companions quite ill -- two different companions on
different days.

If Eden center is within your range, then you might want to try Dragon 
Star. They have pretty decent food there (e.g. hot & sour soup that's 
actually spicy hot and sour)..also serve good, albeit basic, dimsum off 
normal dimsum hours, too.
