Can someone recommend a good Cantonese restaurant in the Boston Chinatown?

I have to avoid most spicy food (things spiced with peppers; ginger and garlic are my friends), and Adrian avoids pork and shellfish, so dim sum isn't a good choice. Neither of us is vegetarian, but we are both happy to eat vegetarian food.

Thanks.

No pork and no shellfish. Okay then.

One problem is that most of the Cantonese places in Boston Chinatown are seafood places. Those which aren't are often Cantonese butcher shops, where pork features prominently on the menu.

That said, Chowhound seems to like Peach Farm. I personally think of it as my go-to at 2AM--pickings at that hour in Boston are slim, unlike in cities like Montreal and New York--but I haven't explored the menu there much. One Chowhound post mentions that there is a second, smaller orange-colored menu which you should get and order from. I don't remember this but as I said I haven't explored the menu much.

Peach Farm does seafood but you may be able to avoid that.

Peach Farm Restaurant
4 Tyler Street
Boston, MA 02111-1904

I seem to remember a vegetarian Chinese place somewhere in Chinatown but I have no idea whether it's Cantonese or not, as I've never eaten there.

Best of luck!
