It is an elegant restaurant for a nice variety of well modified Asian entrees alongside some ordinary yet popular American snack foods.

This method has proven to be successful again and again as the restaurant is usually full and customers are willing to wait. General Tso’s Chicken and Orange Beef, are perennial crowd pleasers, Bamboo does something different and outstanding. Signature dishes that always highly recommended are the Basil Shrimp, Grill Chicken, Mushroom Beef, Chow Mein and Teriyaki Chicken. The Basil Shrimp is Bamboo’s mouthwatering interpretation of a popular Thai dish. The owner’s principle is to make it a light healthy seafood dish stir fried with colorful pepper patches, onion, basil and pineapple a subtle sweet and sour sauce. To prepare Grilled Chicken, chef first handpicks then debones the chicken leg, and then marinates these chicken pieces 24 hours in advance with his homemade sauce made of garlic, ginger, pepper, rice wine, and oyster sauce. A few drops of ketchup give the dish a special flavor. The chef finishes the dish by lightly buttering the chicken and then pan-frying both sides till they turn golden brown, using very little oil. The outstanding flavor is unforgettable. At Bamboo Garden, the chefs use small woks to cook. According to the chef, this method is used to control quantity, and also, more importantly, to keep the wok flavor. The ingredients are purchased from seven trustworthy distributors to ensure freshness and that each dish is prepared in adequate quantities so food never needs to sit out. Mu mentions that he’s compelled to elevate the restaurant’s service standard by continuously improving and innovating dishes. He is excited that many Americans have begun to become interested in more thoroughly understanding Chinese food. This has given him extra motivation to prepare even more exquisite dishes. “The path leading to success is to show receptiveness to new and different ideas and cooking methods, always providing what your customers need,” Mu concludes.
