It's funny how many different ways there are to make ginger beef. Being that it was invented in Calgary, you'd think we would have a pretty standardized recipe. But some places make it full of sauce, others not so much. Ginger Beef Express on 14th St falls into the not so much category.
There are plenty of places for takeout in this area, and Ginger Beef Express is one of them. If you can, order ahead for takeout or have it delivered. I walked in off the street and had a rather boring wait on their old office chairs.
If you're dining for one, they have a chef's combo for $9.45. It includes ginger beef, stir fry vegetables, a spring roll and enough fried rice to feed me for at least another meal. It's good value for the price, the service was alright, but the food is standard Western Chinese takeout that you'd find in any food court.
