I have been going to New Tung Kee in the San Antonio shopping center for a long time. I have always gone for lunch, but I imagine the dinner would be just like lunch. They serve a great variety of asian a la carte noodle and rice dish, with a few special dish like turnip cake. Their menu has about 70 items. My favorites are the beef stew noodle, the curry duck vermicelli, and the vegetarian noodle. They also have a great variety of drinks including a variety of pearl balls drink (my favorite is the honey dew one). Sometimes I also get the coconut drink. Other things that make the place stands out is the price and their efficiency. It's one of the few place around here where you can get a decent lunch for under 5 dollars. As for efficiency, this place is the greatest. This is how this place works: You go in the New Tung Kee, someone will direct you to you table. Someone will come to you within 30 seconds and take your order electronically. You order your dish by the number. Don't be afraid to make special request to customize your dish. I usually get my beef stew dish with tendons only. The food usually shows up within two minutes. After you eat, you just go to the cash register, tell them your table number and pay on the spot. Basically, you spend 90% of your time in the restaurant eating.

This place has never disappointed me. The service is quick, the food is hot and fresh, and the prices can't be beat. A great place when you have a cold: grab a hot bowl of soup and a glass of fresh-squeezed orange juice. The vegetable soups are my recommendation. Pros: Value, Parking, Quick service

For soup lovers only. You will be seated and served expeditiously, but will be left in peace once your spoons or sticks at work. Nobody will interrupt to ask if everything is working out ok, or if you need anything else, so just keep sipping and slurping on those delicious noodles until fully satisfied. Every so often, lift your nose from your bowl to enjoy the noisy, train-station like ambiance. Pros: Inexpensive, Good Cons: Fast
