| - Have been going to Mei-Ling for years, so starting a review of a place that feels like home is tough, but since the food here is as good as it gets for Chinese/Szechewan, it deserves one.
First off, EAT IN!. The place is small, poorly decorated, but comfy in a weird way. Kitty, the wife of the couple who own Mei-Ling will immediately treat you as ifyou have been there a million times. She knows most people by name, as there is so many regulars, it would be hard to count.
OK, the food, because at Mei-Ling its all about that.
You must have, in no particular order:
- Yet Ca mein noodle soup filled to the brim with chicken pieces, pork pieces, veggies, shrimp and yet ca mein noodles in a steamy, spicy broth that immediately evokes "the best soup I ever had" response..
- Calgary crispy ginger beef. THE best you've ever had in a sauce so good an order just of it would be appropriate.
- Szechwan chicken..see my photo attached herein
- Anhy of the noodle dishes, and ALL of their house specialties.
Really the best local take-out Chinese food Ive ever had.
When in Aurora, make a point to have lunch at Mei-Ling....and save your money. Most lunch's are $5.00!!!
