| - I gotta say from the outside it doesn't look so great, then you go inside and now you can't walk out. You just gotta order as you've already been sucked in, well at least that's how I felt.
I've seen this place a few times when I would go to the 99 cent store next door to stock up on some snacks; today I finally cured my curiosity and went in as I was craving some chow mein.
At first I was expecting a Panda style Chinese fast food place where the items are already made and kept in a warmer.
Not this place, everything is made fresh to order.
I was the only customer at that time and as soon as I got in I was greeted and was sat at a table.
Basically this place is like a Chinese restaurant in a fast food form.
You had your lunch specials but I was cruising through the menu and saw that they actually had a wide selection of food including chow fun.
I order the orange chicken lunch special, which comes with soup and wontons chips. The soup is egg flower with bits of corn which was mediocre but it's egg flower, nothing is special about egg flower soup.
Immediately as the soup came out my entree came out.
I went for the orange chicken first and man was it hot! I wasn't thinking I guess, but the good thing was that it was crispy. I would say that their orange chicken is the best that I've had so far that's Chinese fast food.
The fried rice was great as well, wasn't salty, wasn't plain, it was just right. Now the chow mein, it looked like linguine noodles and was just weirded out by that, and when I tasted it, it was definitely different, I've never had chow mein that tasted like that. It was okay-good, maybe because I was knocked back by what I was expecting the taste to be.
What shocked me now was the price, for the lunch combo and a soda, my total came out to $8.38! I didn't even get to finish the whole thing and immediately as I started working on it I was full. I've been eating the leftovers throughout the day and would've been the only meal I purchased had I not gone out to dinner with my girlfriend.
I recommend this place if you would like to have more money for gambling but still have food to eat throughout the day.
