Kwang Chow Chinese Dive - Panama

Authentic Chinese food and Chinese desert made by cute Chinese old coupe. My favorite is their dim sum and roast pig.

Great chinese food and reasonable for the amount of food. One is often shareable for 2-3 depending on hunger. This is a part of the last remenents of old china town. Go inside the area for cheaper meals $5.

When it's open you can't beat the price! Typical Chinese food service with amazing prices. A large rice for 7$ can feed a family and I'm not kidding, take a look at that plate (that's an oval plate).

The first and longest running Chinese restaurant in Panama. This is the best food I’ve had since I’ve been to Panama, and it’s my 3rd visit to Panama. I will keep coming here and next time will update the review with photos. I highly recommend this place!

This place is referred by many as legendary. It has been in this part of the original Chinatown for at least five, maybe even six, decades. The food is mostly traditional style with some Panamanianized dishes. For example, the beef chow fun is similar to what I have had in Hong Kong. The fried rice with chicken is more Panamanian style. All of it is delicious. Some will even refer to this as the very first Chinese restaurant in Panama. Though I do not believe that is factually true. There were likely a few others that came first. But one thing is for sure, though. This is one of the original restaurants. A true original restaurant of the original Chinatown. Right outside is historical Avenue B. It is situated between two significant areas. To the west is Pentonal which houses the very first main street. Before large malls sprung up and drove customers away, Pentonal was the go-to shopping district. To the east is Terraplen, another historical area currently undergoing changes.
