| - If you can't get beef and broccoli right, shut down...quit...go home...stop.
Luckily, they got it right.
Don't have time to read about the 'history' of this place, but I guess they've been around awhile. I see why.
Big portions.
Safe dishes with tastes that satisfy enough without going all out.
My beef and broccoli had a nice sauce, not what I'm used to at my neighborhood place, but quite flavorful without being anything fancy. It's something you could eat anytime you're hungry...like a good song that you let play whether you're in the mood for music or not. Its not that you LOVE the song, it just settles nicely in your ears whenever its on. The sauce, the big fresh broccoli, and the tender and nicely seasoned beef settles nicely on your tongue. Like an old friend to your taste buds.
My second time I tried the curry chicken. Curry chicken is one of my favorite dishes. I'm probably a green rookie when it comes to good curry chicken, having only experienced a few places' offerings. But Sing High's is the second best I've had. Again, nothing fancy. No awards from foodies will be won. But from this guy (foodie rookie i guess), tis' awesome. The sauce isn't too thin and is extremely flavorful. It smelled up the whole office. And that's all. Chicken, onions, peppers, sauce. And it was the best meal i'd had in some time.
Price was right on both dishes...around 8 or 9 bucks.
This is non-complicated, non-frilly food that you can get quick for a nice price. Perfect for lunch.
The decor...its just whatever. Not a place to admire the walls. There were plenty people dining in, and they seemed to have adequate accommodations. I didn't see bugs, dirty stuff, etc.
The staff was busy and it showed. Not unpleasant, but not taking the time to be all smiley and such, either. I got my food, so I didn't really care.
Perhaps they could improve on their waiting area - too many people standing around not knowing if the other was in line or just waiting. Small gripe.
They are in the rotation now, and i'm sure they will earn more stars as I go down their menu. Speaking of the menu, there are no prices. I see a lot of that downtown now...oh well. Like i said, an order of beef and broc was like 8-9 dollars.
One negative thing about something I had - the Drums of Heaven. Horrible. Just a bunch of non-seasoned batter on under cook drums. Didn't even finish them.
So yeah, you're not looking to spend a lot, you're looking to get full, you're looking for something that tastes pretty good, and you're downtown? Go here, i'm sure they have one of your basic favorites.
