JB Garden (Greenwood). It's OK, acceptable quality for the price, as well as the convenience of having another Chinese place in Greenwood. A baked BBQ pork bao, order of 4 shu mai & a hom sui gok is under $4. The shu mai is possibly made on-site.
JB Garden's chow mein is the minimalist dim sum kind, not the fixins-heavy dinner kind. If you want the latter, you go to Mandarin Gate or Yen Wor anyway.
The one thing that could have been better was that everything -- even the 'hot' tea -- could have been much warmer.
No shrimp items.
Cash only.
Tables: 2 sets of 2.
Plastic utensils (forks).

Portion Control
O 74th Street Ale House (Phinney). I don't really mind that twice in a row you've served us the delicious goat cheese salad with just one slice of chevre cut in half, instead of two slices.
Nor does it bother me that you still charge the two-slice price of $9. It's that good.
What is really irritating though is when the guy at the table next to us also orders the goat cheese salad -- and gets two big full honking medallions of chevre.
It makes us think we offended the server in some way. Although we're prettay, prettay, prettay, prettay sure we didn't.
