The Austin Chronicle is an independent, locally owned and operated alternative newsweekly that reflects the heart and soul of Austin, Texas.
Offering farm-to-table Chinese cuisine via small plates and shareables, local legend C.K. Chin’s restaurant is an excellent choice for groups, but make reservations early! Braised eggplant in a sweet-savory sauce, honey-pecan Gulf prawns, and steamed dumplings are not to be missed, and plan way ahead for dim sum, available only on Sundays.
