16 Spots For A Big Group Meal Where People Can Come And Go - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Despite the name, this casual, cash-only Chinese spot in Alhambra is less of a food court and more of a cafeteria-style restaurant. The move here is to pick out some family-style dishes from the steam table area and/or order a bunch of the fantastic dumplings and buns from the a la carte menu. Kang Kang has ample open seating and is open until 9pm every night, making it good for a free-flowing group dinner in the SGV where people might show up at different times and arrive with varying levels of hunger. Make sure to get a few orders of their famously juicy, pan-fried pork buns to share, then maybe snag a bag of frozen dumplings on the way out to reward the friend who paid with cash and had everyone Venmo them." - brant cox
