You know that one spot in your hometown that everyone knows about. This one here is it for me. Been coming here since childhood, high school lunch recess, after Sunday Service, I'm not sure why but it's hard to find a good Chinese Restaurant with quality food. Everything served on your plate is magnificent. I'm in a relationship with the #9 Salt & Pepper Shrimp with fried rice and chow mein. If you starving you can add additional shrimp for a small fee. Feel like spicing it up? You can add a small to-go container of that delicious chili sauce. Well todays visit was extra special, while picking up my prescription at the nearby Rite Aid, i knew I had to stop and get dinner at Fay Yin. Well immediately after paying for my meal, I observed both Lin & Robert (co-owner/owner) having a discussion) then second's later they approach me and show me this portable charger, (my portable charger), that I've been looking for days without luck. They asked me if it was mine, AND IT WAS! Apparently i was there a couple days ago and forgot my portable by one of the tables. Well I am ol glad they reunited me with my portable charger, Iam glad they run a restaurant with honesty and integrity.

If this was a bar it would be a dive bar. Nothing to look at on the outside. The inside is just a notch above but the food is amazing and the owner works the service end and he's the nicest guy ever. I've been before with friends and regretted not being able to take the leftovers because we were headed somewhere. Tonight I'm dining alone and chose the abalone and shrimp soup which is once again amazing. If you're ever this way for lunch or dinner give it a try. It's really good authentic Chinese better than any I've had in Bakersfield. Enjoy.
