Hi @chienrouge ,
Nice! If you’re visiting Alhambra, realistically (by L.A. standards), you’re now in easy driving distance of everything in the “San Gabriel Valley” (Alhambra, Monterey Park, San Gabriel, Temple City, Rosemead, etc.). They are all literally minutes from each other. 
From some reviews I posted, you can definitely check out places like:
- Caribbean Gourmet (at the Blossom Market Hall)
- Jiang Nan Spring - So many good dishes there.
- Ipoh Kopitiam - Malaysian and Singaporean specialist.
- Tam’s Noodle House - Hong Kong Wonton Noodle Soup specialist (with other solid offerings as well).
You then get into the old standbys mentioned back in the Chowhound days, haha, like:
- Dim Sum - Sea Harbour
- Xiao Long Bao (Shanghai “Soup Dumplings”) - Shanghai Dumpling House (227 W Valley Blvd, San Gabriel, CA 91776)
- HK Roast Pork Belly - Ruby BBQ (Cash Only). Their Roast Duck is also solid for flavor (but lacking the crisped skin, but no one in So Cal does that).
But I’d defer to @ipsedixit @A5KOBE @paranoidgarliclover to chime in for more OG SGV recommendations.
Enjoy!
