Sampan Inn, Havertown, PA

Soup: Seafood and Burn Curd Soup (for two) - excellent
Entrees: Pad Thai with Shrimp (average to good); Shrimp with Honey Walnuts (excellent); Chicken and Shrimp with ginger and scallions (excellent)

Our first time there. Turns out Sampan Inn has been around since 1993. We made the mistake of going on a Friday night with no reservations, but it turns out they normally don't take reservations for fewer than 5 people. We eventually got in. All the shrimp dishes had large shrimp (half-dollar size). They did a brisk take-out service, which we'll have to try next time. We did not sample any Japanese dishes, though half the restaurant (and half the menu) features those.
