Surprisingly Good Chinese in the Mission

Surprisingly Good Chinese in the Mission

Review of: Yum Yum House

Read review on Judy’s Book.

I didn’t expect anything special when I walked into Yum Yum House, but they really surprised me. I had some really good hot and sour soup, good pot stickers, and some AMAZING Szechuan Stringbeans. The stringbeans at most other Chinese restaurants usually arrive limp, mushy and swimming in the requisite one-sauce-fits-all “brown sauce”. Yum Yum’s stringbeans (and accompanying slivers of red pepper) were crisp and fresh tasting, with no gloppy brown sauce in sight. Service was attentive and very friendly; they even agreed to make a dish for us that wasn’t on the menu.

Little detail-y thing: I also loved how each table had a different type of teapot – it gave the place a little bit of a cool funky-mismatched style!
