Couwami, Azusa CA

This is my go to place with my mom. They are surprisingly good. I have always been wary of restaurants next door to hotels or motels (haha) and I am vegan, but they have some really good dishes here. I usually order anything on the vegetarian menu, and I have chow fun or pad see ew. I ask them not to add oyster or fish sauce, and they seem to "get it" and understand those items are NOT mixed into dishes for vegetarian or vegan people. In the past when Ive gone to Asian restaurants they didn't understand at ALL what "vegan stock" was, and kept shouting that "the food doesn't have meat in it", without realizing that meat can be liquefied and put into sauces (Rolls eyes and SIGHS). My regular waitress understands this.

We always stop in for our fix of some delicious chinese food.and warm friendly faces. They treat us like family and that is so hard to come by now a days.
