Great Chinese Food on Allemby
Life in our city includes those of us who have a taste for good Chinese food. There are among others the Red Chinese on North Dizengoff and the Dim Sum on Allenby and Rothchild. But this week we tried a "new" place at the bottom of Allemby, just at the beginning of our Allemby walking tour (described a few days ago on the blog).
Today Ami and I are reviewing a quaint small Chinese restaurant, the Long Sang located at 15 Allemby - around the corner from the Opera Tower. You enter the main dining room - with real Chinese restaurant look you will find the world over. Off to the left is a plain, long narrow room that is OK, except a little claustrophobic.
A polite young man will take your order. Menu is in English and Hebrew. You will note that he writes down nothing, but don't worry you'll get what you order. This is a full menu of chicken, beef, shrimp and pork. Try the hot and sour or wanton soup as a starter.
We sampled the sweet and sour chicken and the pork in oyster sauce. The chicken was plain but tasty, and the pork was very good. What some good Chinese try the Long Sang. Dinner for two between 150 - 200 NIS. Call ahead 516-3769

It was the most awful Dim Sum I've ever had in my life. The food was dry, tasteless, awful - like it had been microwaved. Who leaves the tails on the shrimp in Har Gau? Nobody who knows what they're doing.
I would never return to this awful restaurant in my life.
