I wouldn't have even considered stopping into China Wing if not for being brought in here by my good friend. It's like a hidden gem hole in the wall in Charlotte. It's truly unassuming and even the name is a bit un-fitting. It brings to mind those China Ones and China Kings and other generically named Chinese take-outs that are a staple in every Food Lion shopping center across the south east. China Wing, despite the name, is almost anything but.
Inside you'll find they've set up shop inside what used to be a fast food restaurant. Surprising to me, the daughter of the owners informed us they've been here for 20 years. This daughter of the owners actually took our orders and served us our food. Her and her parents are actually Korean, not Chinese. To be fair, one of the neon signs outside does say they do Korean food too. If you ask me I'd say they should change the name to Korea Wing simply because they seem to do that best. I also find it more unique.
I ordered a bowl of bibimbap. Easily my favorite Korean dish I haven't had it in years. It was just as good as I remember. An assortment of veggies, beef, rice and an over-easy egg in a searing hot bowl. When you get it you let it sizzle a bit to crisp the rice in the bottom. Then you stir it up and have at it. If you fear the spiciness of Korean food this is one sure-fire way to avoid it. Their menu is basically divided with Chinese food on one side and Korean on the opposite. An interesting fusion item I'd like to try here some day is the bulgogi cheesesteak. The cheesebulgogi in a word.
The prices were a bit high in my opinion. About $12-13 for the bibimbap. Although this isn't usually a cheap-o dish. Maybe they have better lunch-time deals too. I intend to go back again regardless!
