Won Kok is one of my favorites, too!
Love that place.
Foo Chow on Hill Street, Bamboo Kitchen on 7th, and Paul's Kitchen on San Pedro Street all have Chop Suey and Egg foo young on the menu. The former Paul's Kitchen #2 on Jefferson (Now hiding under a stucco infill as Tim's Chinese) also has both dishes.

The stuff you're talking about is “ American Chinese food”... but that doesn't stop me from loving the stuff.
My mom always loved Egg Foo Young, and was very sad when it became virtually impossible to find.
Then I discovered Won Kok in Chinatown. They have all the old classics and it tastes just like it did back in the 1970s.
I order shrimp Egg Fu Young practically every time I go there.
I love the place, and go there as often as possible, but be warned - I've had a few friends, with more modern, refined tastes... and they think Won Kok is greasy and awful.
I think it's greasy and terrific!  |
