Don't expect a miniature version of San Francisco's or New York's Chinatowns. This center is a small mall, consisting of restaurants, a supermarket, and China-related businesses. The giftshops sell tasteless Chinatown-type souvenirs. The Golden Buddha and Schechwan Palace restaurants are pretty good.

All that's there are two or three restaurants one food market and one gift shop but there is a very small garden to walk around in.

This is one of my favorite places to get amazing ingredients you cant find at your local grocery store.
