Where Philly’s Chinatown Community Leaders Go to Eat

"This tiny family-run coffee shop has amassed a cult following that spans over three decades. In addition to pioneering the Japanese siphon method in Philly, Grace Chen and her sons Lawrence and Randy Ray make wonderful Taiwanese comfort food. Alix Webb goes for the leek boxes dumplings, house wide noodles with shrimp, and sweet and spicy flounder with rice. Try the noodle soups — all of them are delicious — or the extremely satisfying combo of spicy walnut delight and triple-greens teas." - Diana Lu
