Definitive answer to best chinese food in La Paz
Anybody, anybody? Bueller? We am going out tonight and want Chinese with authenticity, spice, and atmosphere be damned. Any quick suggestions. The
search on this board only revealed places not to go and I am heeding them.
I am looking forward to lunch Monday at Tres Virgenes, but that is an altogether different animal.

Wishing you the best of luck . . .
If you can find a Chinese restaurant in La Paz that serves fried rice that isn't a week old, please let us know.
In La Paz, a good Chinese meal is one that doesn't make you sick.
All Chinese chefs in La Paz should get a job slopping hogs . . . or be arrested for false impersonation.

Strive For The Ideal, But Deal With What\'s Real.

Yes we are closed on Mondays.
Best Chinese in town is definately the one on the corner of Allende and Madero.
If you go, ask if "Bin" is cooking, if he is, you should get a decent meal, if he is not, i usually go get a Pizza.

Gracias a dios, we went to Allende and Madero to the Golden Dragon (Dragon de Oro) on our landlords rec. The service was lightning fast, almost
scarily so, and the food was better than I have experienced in other parts of Baja. A nice rest. that reminded me of larger salas por rentar in the
states.
Definitely rates a "B". Could have had more subtle flavors and distinctive spices, but overall pleasantly surprising.
Thanks for the heads up on Mondays at your place. We will try tuesday.
