| - I used to be a line cook in a Japanese restaurant. I know how good Asian food is supposed to taste. So I can confidently tell you; for outstanding Asian food, Good Taste House succeeds in several ways:
1) The name of the place is just delightful, I mean look at it. It's like something from a cartoon. I love it.
2) The soy sauce they include with delivery is real, naturally brewed, Kimlan soy sauce. Not that artificially colored & flavored filth that almost every other chinese place uses. I can tell the difference, and it is disgusting. Good Taste House cares about you and provides Soy Sauce that doesn't insult your palate or intelligence. (Yes. I feel that strongly about this.)
3) I can taste the slightly singe of the noodles that have been cooked fresh, in a wok, over a flame. You can't fake that flavor and after having it myself over and over for so long I didn't realize how much I missed it until we ordered from Good Taste House. It's just...correct.
4) Their delivery zone is huge. I mean, really. I was impressed.
5) Their egg rolls and spring rolls stand out from other asian delivery in a big way. I'm not sure, but they taste handmade but they could just be a higher quality. Either way, big fan.
6) Their sweet & sour sauce tastes the way I used to make it myself. In fact, everything there tastes as good as if I made it myself, at the peak of my abilities, in a restaurant, with all the proper equipment and tools readily in front of me. I can make decent Chinese food at home, but an electric range just doesn't cook the same way. This place nails it.
THOROUGHLY IMPRESSED. Well deserving of five stars.
Fair Warning: Delivery times can be a little long because of their big coverage area. Ours didn't take *that* long but I'm willing to wait for food this good to be brought to my door. (Also, come on, the building is practically a shack. They're gonna get backed up.)
