No Fujian down here except for Foo Chow in Chinatown, which still touts it’s location being used for one of Jackie Chan’s rush hour movies. One might discount Foo Chow since (1) it’s been open for 40 years and (2) it’s in Chinatown. But supposedly they have some real Fujianese food there, though I never bothered. @JThur01 keeps much better track of San Gabriel Valley restaurants by regional cuisine. There are a few Wuhan style places. One shopping center (301 W. Valley in San Gabriel) has a Wuhan place (Tasty Dining) and Lizhou snail broth noodles (Happy Kitchen). Tasty Noodle House, also in San Gabriel, serves Dalian cuisine. I know you like to categorize Chinese food by regional cuisine, but another way to approach the food scene is focusing large Mainland Chinese restaurant chains that open up here. Two years ago that was such an unusual phenomenon that I wrote an article about it. Today it’s so commonplace that you may not know that the new place that just opened up is part of a Mainland chain. But they bring a level of authenticity that we didn’t have before. One of these chains that might fit your regional criteria, though, is Bistro Na’s in Temple City, which serves Chinese Imperial cuisine. Interestingly, the only other Imperial cuisine restaurant in the area that I know about is in the same shopping center, Simmer Huang, which serves something called Imperial style hotpots.
