restaurants known to man.

But the China Sea is more
than just 2 survivor. It is a
Promoter of better quality
Chinese food, a cut above
regulation Chinese boiler-
plate.

Its menu boasts “The Best
Chinese Food in North
Shore.”

So no shrinking tiger lilies
in this Sea. But also far more
than empty boasts snd fish
stories,

The Sea is manned by a

polite and efficient servive
staff ourtitted in white shirts,
black dress pants and march
ing vests.

Its dining room is boeht
and wide open, and its chen:
tele is predominantly
Oriental. For Chinese tood
afficionados that’s a good
sign. It promises authenticity.

Another good sign is the

$ attention to seafood
freshness. Live crab and
prawns are brought to tabies
for diner examination before
ordering. Disquicting for ani-
mal rights types, perhaps, but
