I was really really in the mood for Chinese food so I stopped in for some take out.
I got Mongolian Beef- and asked for them to add ginger because that's how I make it and I like it. The portion was in the round container I associate with the lunch sizes in everywhere I've had Chinese food from Chicago to New Jersey to New York-
but not lunch prices. I wouldn't mind if it were good though.
But it really, really wasn't. It was bland. Bland, flavorless, and tasteless.
The sauce was like the Au Jus you get in little containers with beef sandwiches-
thin, watery, and....unappetizing. With not even a matchstick of ginger to be seen.
Blegh. SO dissatisfied was I- that the next day I stopped where I was traveling in the South Side at Chan An- a fast food looking joint- the portion was twice as large, the price half as much- and it was delicious. Think I'll go write a review for them now.
