Who would have thought Cowansville would be the Chinese food capital of the Eastern Townships?
This regional hub is now home to three great new Chinese restaurants -- all opened within the past year or so.
I'm a big fan of Fusion d'Asia (at the corner of rue Principale and rue du Sud, in the former Sac à mots building) and Rendez-Vous Café (across from the Princess Theatre).
I wrote about Fusian d'Asia (94 rue du Sud, 450-263-3838) here.
Rendez-Vous Café & Yamei
Less than a block away, Rendez-Vous Café (140 rue Principale, 450-955-3373) serves tasty and generous Chinese noodles and soup dishes.
A couple of buildings over, the café owner's wife, Yamei Zhao, has also opened a self-named restaurant called Yamei (101 rue Principale, 450-955-1682).
Haven't tried Zhao's restaurant yet, but I wanna, and soon. If her husband's work in the kitchen is any sign, Yamei is gonna be a hit too.
Xie xie to all these entrepreneurs, and good luck!
UPDATE: My lovely and talented wife and I tried Yamei the other day and had a great dinner. The selection is simpler than at Fusion d'Asia, but the meals were excellent and well priced.
We also picked up some of their delicious home-made hot sauce.
