Chinatown Eatery

Here's my favorite fast food source. Laid out like an authentic Southeast Asian food court, the Chinatown Eatery consists of 6 or 8 boutiques, each specializing in a certain kind of food: seafood (live tank), Thai, Cantonese, Northern Chinese, etc. Best dumplings (Peking ravioli) and scallion pancakes in Boston, at the Northern Chinese kitchen. You can get a nutritious lunch here for $5 to $7. Try out the fruit drink stand. I used to walk from the Aquarium all the way here just for the green and red bean drinks. Seat yourself at a round or long, school cafeteria-style table, and help yourself to tea and utensils. Open late.(3/95)
