Tofu! - Edit
Chinese restaurant offering a few different types of tofu dishes. You're supposed to order a few different things and it's probably better for sharing (I was eating alone). At least I got very full. Tasted ok.

Home-wrecker - Edit
What else would I order when I’m in a city of incredible Arabic options? Why Chinese, of course! The urge was too great, and I was eager to see how it stacked up against my usual hometown favourite. How did it fare you ponder? Very well actually, thanks for asking! In fact, if this place was a good couple of thousand kilometres southeast, it would be the new go-to.
Read moreNearly all the items that I sampled were up there with some of the best I’ve had. Cabbage, when done well, can be a sublime thing, and the Kung Pao iteration from here was case in point. Although, while this delicacy was excellent, my favourite item was just about the scallion pie, though the array of condiments was the biggest, positive surprise as they gave a wonderful balance of freshness and pop to what was otherwise highly enjoyable meal. In fact, the only dish that was slightly found wanting was the vegetable fried rice, though this didn’t stop me from devouring every single grain there was to be had.
Though there are undoubtedly cheaper places to eat in the vicinity, I for one think this spot is more than worth the additional dinars.

Good food, staff knows what vegan is - Edit
If you are looking for it, go through the archway to the Aqaba Marketplace and it’s tucked inside of there! Staff knows what vegan is and menu items are labeled vegan. Good selection. I had the Formosa tofu and enjoyed it. They are open during the day during Ramadan!

Excellent. Would give 5 stars if I could. - Edit
Best succulent Chinese meal I've had in a long time. Spicy beans and schezchwan eggplant dishes were both amazing.

Started good. Ended a little disappointed - Edit
Entrees were great. Scallion pie and springrolls.
Read moreThe soja sauce was exquisite.
Sadly couldnt follow up with the main course, bok choy was bland and the Formosa curry didn't live up to our expectations.
Paired with the fact that this being the most expensive dinner spot we visited so far, wouldn't recommend
Pros: Vegan options, Front of the house is friendly, Easy to pick vegan options
Cons: Price/quality

Perfect - Edit
We ordered scallion pie (a kind of potato cake thing) spring rolls and fried tofu which they did in sweet and sour sauce for us. We also ordered the soya rice thinking it would have soya mince in but it was rice with soy sauce 🤦🏼♀️
Read moreAll in all cracking food and the staff fully understood vegan. Happily provided takeaway box for us too as we couldn’t finish it all 😊
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Staff had good knowledge of what vegan is, Good price

They understand what vegan means! - Edit
This was the only place that we found in Jordan that actually understood what vegan means. Staff are very friendly, and there are various vegan options.
Read moreThey have a delicious scallion pie, and we also got a shiitake soup and eggplant with Szechuan sauce that were very tasty. They also brought us some cucumbers and pickled cabbage. The lemon and mint juice was really refreshing.
It may seem odd to eat Chinese food in Jordan, but as they were the only place where we felt certain that we were getting vegan food we went back there.
Pros: Understand what vegan means, Many options, Friendly service
