    For dim sum, try 888 in Rosemead or Ocean Star in Monterey Park. You can also get good seafood from both places, although 888 has more of a chiu chow influence. MPV in Alhambra is also pretty good. Triumphal Palace in Alhambra has been highly recommended by a number of people. If you want just simple chow mein and rice dishes, try Sam Woo BBQ in Alhambra or Tasty Garden in Alhambra & Arcadia (Tasty Garden is a Hong Kong-style cafe). Although Kim Ky in San Gabriel is chiu chow, it has some really good soup noodle dishes.

    I have some mini-reviews compiled:

        It depends on the particular specialization of Chinese cuisine you are looking for and your personal preferences. Are you looking for dim sum, seafood, dumplings, Cantonese, Shanghainese, Taiwanese, spicy, etc.?

          I didn't know that part of the site was working, again. Thanks! I just printed the list as a PDF!

            Pretty hard to say which is the best. Good start would be this Jonathan Gold article from LA Weekly (Cross Capital Seafood off the list...just closed for a remodel and ownership change?).

                I was just at Capital Seafood last Saturday. Did this closing happen since then?
