| - I received a flyer on my door from this restaurant and decided I would try it for lunch.
The lunch special was $5.25 when I got it for a pretty large serving of seasame chicken and fried rice. An egg roll was also included.
I like to give restaurants a chance to impress me, even if they are run down ma and pop kind of places. I wish I had known this was a "fast food" Chinese place. It looked pretty dingy and sad. It was strange, when you walk in you see sort of like a panda express/buffet-like area with display glass. However, there wasn't food there (except fortune cookies), and you had to order your food from the lady at the front. You paid, and then when it was ready, you picked it up from the front. In that respect, it is nice to have fresh food. It was pretty hot though, even when I tried to cool it down.
I had the seasame chicken, but I wonder if she thought I said sweet and sour. It had the sweet and sour flavor to me, but it was sprinkled with seasame seeds. I have only experienced seasame chicken at a Japanese restaurant before, and it was such a bad comparison. It was too tangy and greasy here. It was not appetizing to eat it at all. It was very saucy, and it took up half my plate. I didn't finish the chicken. The fried rice was also unappetizing. I don't know what they used to stir fry it with, but it wasn't good, just tasted greasy. I wish I had gotten the steamed rice instead. I ate it, but I did not enjoy it at all. The vegetable egg roll that it came with (also included a little sauce cup of sweet and sour sauce) was also pretty strange tasting to me. It was doughy but also had some juicy sauce in there. It was strange for my mouth, but it wasn't bad per say. It wasn't very good either.
They also have ice cream, but I didn't want to have any. It was a strange inclusion.
I feel incredibly sad, because I wanted to enjoy them... but it was just not good. I don't see how they can live with themselves serving those plates. However, there was a usual there when I went, and a few others when I went around 1pm. To each their own. I would have rather gone to Panda Express.
The lady in the front seemed nice, but I like to see the good in people. Because I paid with a credit card, she charged me a total of $6, even though it is $5.70 with tax. I didn't mind.
I did not enjoy anything about the place except for the price, and in retrospect, was it really worth $5.25 or rather $6? Not really. i didn't even get a fortune cookie from the mountain they displayed in the front.
The appearance of the place matches the food... cheap and unappetizing.
