There are certain items I like to try whenever I see them on a menu. I like to try a place's Jambalaya or Risotto or Paella, I make sure to order Panang Curry at Thai places, and I'm a bit of a General Tso's Chicken addict. Thanks to Bobby Y's review, I knew I had to check out China One for some GTC action.
I went here with my Dad late one night. I wasn't all that hungry, so we ordered some fried rice to share. It was enough to feed and satisfy both of our appetites. The fried rice was pretty good, but a little on the oily side. Then again, I may have only noticed the oil because of the styrofoam plates we were eating on. The plates were absolutely covered in oil by the end!
As for the GTC, I got it to go. So yes, this is not a review of freshly cooked China One GTC. I took it to work the next day and had so much food, I split it up into lunch part one and lunch part two. Even reheated the next day, the GTC was solidly good eats. The vegetables weren't so fresh anymore, but I like the fact that it even comes with vegetables. My usual go-to GTC lunch destination is Chopstix; they don't include veggies, so this was a nice change-up.
I'll have to return for the lunch special GTC and eat in next time. Not that I was disappointed in the GTC - not at all. It was very good and worthy of returning, even though there are probably a ton of equally good places between my house and China One.
