Been to chef panda twice now and both times the food was delicious. Sweet and sour pork was cooked perfectly. The almond chicken was good too. Orange chicken was great!
**Update: All good things must come to an end. So the beginning of the end for Chef Panda happened when I ordered delivery for me and the kids. We have ordered delivery before and been very satisfied-- not this time. I ordered the usual for the kids-- orange chicken and low mein. For myself, I ordered the Mu Shoo Pork and hot and sour soup. When the meal arrived everything looked fine until I started to unpack the food. The low mein was fine but the orange chicken seemed to have been over cooked to the point the pieces were like small stones deep fried in batter with orange flavored sweet & sour sauce. The Moo Shu filling was delicious-- but if memory serves me, Mu Shoo is supposed to have crepes. There were no crepes with the order. The hot and sour soup was overly spicy and overly sour.
So I thought, hey, everyone can have a bad night so I chalked this experience up to that. **sigh** it appears that is not the case. My wife and I stopped by to order food to-go. We were going out that night and didn't have time to cook. Stopped in and ordered dinner, I had the sweet and sour pork and my wife had one of the beef dishes-- I forget which one. We arrived well before three others and were served last, even after we asked about our order. The food came out and was almost inedible. The sweet and sour pork was, once again over cooked and my wifes dish had too much sauce-- the beef was drowning in the sauce.
So bummed....
