| - I thought I'd give Dragon House a try and ordered delivery from them - cheese wontons and general tso's chicken, easy order.
It took over an hour to receive, and I was OK with that. But when I opened up my order, I looked at the general tso's and thought it didn't look right. I tried it - it tasted nothing like general tso's, and I've had this dish from probably a hundred different Chinese restaurants. It's a brown, salty sauce poured over some of the chicken (not even all of it) and it tastes terrible. Thinking they got my order wrong, I called the restaurant; nope. Apparently they choose to make general tso's different from everyone else. That's all fine and dandy, but paying $11 for something that tastes like really salty soy when you're expecting a dish you know and love really sucks. I didn't eat it. I tried, instead, to feed it to my Husband, the human garbage disposal - he gave me a dirty look after trying it and gave it back.
Next, I checked out the cheese wontons. I was really excited because I've never seen cheese wontons here in Canada before (they have them in the US where I come from). They certainly were cheese wontons, but when I examined them, I started laughing - they are full size wontons, but the amount of cheese in them was like an 1/8 teaspoon! So little cheese, you can't even taste it.
Even the fortune cookies were stale. I definitely won't be ordering from here again. With so many great Chinese restaurants in Oakville, why settle for this mess?
