Traditional and Regal Menu Options
Other than arguably the best Szechuan beef in town, you may want to sample a few of the other dishes like the black bean chicken or the tossed cashew chicken. The Szechuan shrimp is another favourite and lamb is also an extremely popular item. If you’re looking for something on the adventurous side, try the lobster tail canton or the Mongolian filet mignon. Vegetarians can choose from their own section on the menu that includes items like the Lo Han Jai, made from a Buddhist recipe that contains soybean cake, water chestnuts, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, almonds and crispy fried rice.

A Beijing Palace
For years, Lingnan has been serving up some of the city's most authentic Chinese food to Edmontonians. Aside from the cuisine, the restaurant offers a great window into Chinese culture amongst a high-ceiling room with red and gold accents – the inside is reminiscent of a palace in Beijing. Back in the ’50s, the Lingnan was a popular spot with non-descript décor but it’s since been renovated and now you can enjoy your meal among regal ceilings, Chinese lanterns and traditional murals.
