Thuy Cafe

This is food ninja giving my restaurant review for go-gin-chow on Thuy Cafe a great little place in St. Petersburg  its serves up refreshing cold beverages such as boba tea with tapioca balls, but you don't have to put the tapioca balls in your drink. It still tastes great they have a vast variety of flavors for the boba tea,  but they also have a nice little menu that has a good selection of sandwiches. Everything priced reasonably. The inside decor is warm and cozy it's a nice place to go and just relax or to catch up with some reading. Either way you will enjoy because as soon as you walk in you are greeted with a nice smile and good service. For I am the ninja, please enjoy.

Ha Long Bay

Go gin chow restaurant reviews by the food ninja, here is my take on a place in St. Petersburg  Florida on 34th street exit 28  called Ha Long Bay. Good place for dim sum. There they keep it authentic in the way that they serve the dim sum from stainless steel carts that is pushed around by the servers and they bring the carts by your table and explain and show you whats in each little container so you have the privilege to choose what you would  like to eat and you have a pretty good selection and what ever you can not find on the carts you can also order from their extensive menu. They give the menu to you when they politely seat you. The decor inside is modern day. It has open lay out, but you feel kind of in your own world when you are seated. The bathrooms very clean and also carry the same modern day decor. Back to the food and the prices and service - the food is hot and delicious and appealing to the eye and taste buds each container of food has its own distinct flavor and all of them very good. You will be happy to know the prices are reasonable, the location is not bad, but parking can be hard because you have to enter the right way into the parking lot in order to park your car right. The other down fall that day was our waitress was rude and pushy like she was trying to rush us out of there. Luckily for her the food was great, but it seemed like the other waitresses were polite and courteous from what I observed. Well maybe she was having a bad day. Anyways our visit was good aside from that so I would recommend this restaurant to anyone going to the St. Pete area. I am food ninja, as I always say enjoy.
