    I had high expectations, and I hadnt had Chinese lamb skewers for more than half a year, and I was worried it would fail my expectations. The smell from the cart was great, the smell of the skewers when we got then was very legit, and one bite into them and I was in food heaven! I have a soft spot for lamb skewers, I love the seasoning (slightly spicy). Ordered 8 lamb, 2 chicken and 2 pork for 2 people. Ended up only eating 3 lamb 1 pork and 1 chicken, they're quite big (American size I guess). They werent identical to the ones I've eaten before, I ate it most in South Korea, but they're so delicious in their own way. $1.75 per skewer for most of the meat types, I attached a photo of the new price list since it seems the price went up a bit. Still totally worth it, and I think they deserve the raise, given he hard work it is to grill meats all night long. I'd only add that the pork one is very fatty, so abstain in you have high cholesterol or trying to watch your weight. Cant wait to try some other meats next time!

    Small simple street cart - selling a small variety of soft drinks and a pretty decent amount of skewers. We ordered the beef, chicken, lamb and Chinese chives. All were good. Our favorites were the chicken and Chinese chives (which were wrapped in bacon). For inexpensive, quick and flavorful street food this is a must place to go. Not the cleanest part of the neighborhood. I didn’t choose to go here for the ambiance, just the value and food. I recommend this spot.

    My visit was highlighted by excellent food and service. The workers remember me every time I visit. The items I ordered were notably tasty. The restaurant has a cozy, cute appeal. This spot delivers complete delight.
