I was at Yan's Lafayette for lunch after a long break ... by the end of the meal I found myself wishing I had driven to Walnut Creek instead to Yan's China Bistro where the food is amazing .
I ordered the Hot Braised Prawns with chow mein.. The prawns were served in a sugary sauce, were not at all 'spicy' and were served with underdone, completely tasteless carrots - sliced large! The chowmein looked as if it were food for the dogs ... cold and extremely unappetizing both in taste and to look at. If I was not hungry I would have left without eating a morsel. The cost? The same as any other place. The service? Passable.
Pros: the service was ... quick
Cons: Tasteless with no visual appeal and passable service
