| - I despise Chinese food, ever since a bad experience at Foody-Goody many years ago. But the Pink Pearl is one place that I really actually quite liked, food and all.
There was about 12 of us in a wrap-up dinner we had a few weeks ago, we had reservations, but there was lots of room so we were seated on our own. I imagine that lunches would be busy, but evenings would be a great time to go for a quiet dinner.
The service was fantastic, quick and very friendly. Our waitress was quick to answer any questions we had, or even make suggestions as to quantities and add-on dishes we weren't sure about. The food came quickly, and was hot, and great portion sizes. It fed our group of mostly single, male students without any problems.
Now, as I said earlier, I really, really dislike Chinese food after a bad experience, involving questionable meat... and a chain being shut down. I'll eat Japanese, Vietnamese, Korean, Mongolian, Indian, but Chinese food has been off the menu... until this restaurant. The Ginger Beef was fantastic and I filled up on Lemon Chicken.
So don't let the kind of tacky pink neon and mirrors throw you off, the Pink Pearl is worth stopping for a great Chinese meal.
