| - I was driving home from work when I saw a sign advertising chinese take out-- talk about perfect timing! Located in the corner of the shopping center, Chopstix looks like your normal Chinese take out spot with advertisements of lunch specials plastered all over the windows.
When I walked in, there was no one in there. In fact, it looked like the cooks and the cashier were having dinner on one of the tables. I felt bad when they all jumped up from the table to take my order. They have a variety of dishes on their menu, but I settled on the combination plate. For $7 and some change, the combination gets you an entree of your choice (there is a list of about 10 different dishes), chicken fried rice and a veggie egg roll. In about 10 minutes my food was ready to go! I like that.
Since my first visit last week, I have already stopped by THREE times! It is probably not a healthy habit, but it is better than binging on Del Taco next door. I have ordered the mongolian beef, shrimp with lobster sauce, sesame chicken and general tso chicken. The general tso chicken was probably the tastiest and it will definitely be my go to choice. As far as portions go, Chopstix is fairly generous and I can usually have left overs for lunch the next day.
Chopstix is an upgrade from Panda Express-- and cheaper (and faster) than Pei Wei. A good choice when you're in the area and want an alternative to the usual fast food choices.
