I used to love Hunan Chinatown. They had the best kung pao dishes I've ever had, their General Tso's was always consistently good, and their crispy prawns with walnuts dish was wonderful. But it closed about a year or two ago. Have tried most of the other Chinese places in the area and haven't been too impressed with any of them.

really great Burmese food, try
Mandalay in Silver Spring.

That's one pretty good rule of thumb about DC… the best Asian food is almost always in the suburbs.

totally agree the owner of the Mandalay actually left the Burmese joint in Chinatown to start their own place… was disappointed with restaurant in chinatown.
