Gum Wah Restaurant has the best-tasting soup base. I recommend item #24, shrimp dumplings in soup $3.95, but I wouldn't recommend getting the soup with the noodles. If you like ask them to add some roast duck or Chinese BBQ pork into the soup, though the duck made the soup base very salty. Their item # 76 fried rice $4.95 is also very good. Stay away from their sweet & sour pork as it's very fatty. There's a deli counter to order things to go or dine in. Cash only.
