Bites Nearby: China Ruby
Not much has changed since China Ruby opened in 1988... and the dishes are just as tasty.
China Ruby, 157 W. Nine Mile Road, Ferndale (248) 546-8876.
Nine Mile Road west of Woodward is a completely different street than it was in 1988 when Tina Co and Cuong Luu opened their little restaurant in a former diner. But is remarkably the same. Even the price structure has hardly changed.
With Cuong manning the woks behind the counter, and Tina handling the front of the house, they turn out excellent fare with well-balanced spice levels and judiciously applied sauces. Much of the clientele can be called regulars, and Tina knows what each person likes to order.
