Chee Kei

Chee Kei takes pride in showcasing wonton soup not as a bit player, but as a star in its own right, one equally worthy of welcoming new fans into the world of Cantonese dining and reminding stalwarts that the cuisine's simplest pleasures are also its greatest strengths. The velvety surface of Kei's wontons glide against the springy texture of the noodles, crafting a warm, savory spell over everyone fortunate enough to claim their own bowl. Of course, hardly a one-item menu, Chee Kei gilds its main attraction with flourishes spanning from crispy chicken wings to savory fish balls. If you want an intro to Cantonese that's also required eating for both intermediates and experts, visit Chee Kei for the tastiest living history lesson on Earth.
