Restaurante Mandarin

If you live in Caracas, and you like authentic Chinese food (lumpia zero, ribs, or chop suey), this place could become your second home. Its the famous "Mandarin chinese" of La Candelaria, located on the terrace of Hotel Alex, a half block from the Plaza Candelaria. ALL the food is delicious. There are dishes with tofu, vegetables, fish, seafood, meat, noodles, rice, and soups. My recommendation is to first ask for a dish of mixed rice, pork empanadas with their respective spicy sauce made of ginger, a dish of eggplant with shrimp and a serving of meat or pork sauteed with scallions. For those experienced in Asian dishes, certainly try tongue in sauce, stuffed eggplant, and spicy tofu.
