Open daily for lunch and dinner. By virtue of its excellent Hong Kong-style cooking, Good Fortune is on the top rung of the Chinese restaurants in Wheaton. The dinner menu features more than 200 items, many of them ambitious and authentic. At lunchtime the restaurant provides excellent Cantonese dim sum every day. Diners order from a menu on weekdays, but on weekends the rolling carts come out with dumplings, buns, spareribs, and sliced meats.
Main courses tend to be more enterprising than appetizers.
To avoid a glut of dishes on the table, ask the waiter to bring them in two or three flights. The whole steamed rockfish or red snapper with ginger and scallions and the deep-fried flounder are treats. Also very good are the baked salted chicken, shredded pork with mushrooms, scallops with black-pepper sauce, and spinach or watercress with garlic sauce. For a large group, call in advance and ask the restaurant to prepare a Chinese banquet. You might be able to squeeze one into the bargain budget.
