"4"^^ . "We went to Mon Shing after doing groceries this weekend. The restaurant didn't appear very promising at first glance, with its bland decor that probably hadn't changed since 2000, but prices were affordable and we were really hungry. \n\nWe were craving for chow mein and each ordered a plate. The portions were larger than expected, and the taste was much better too. There were more vegetables than meat (especially for the seafood chow mein), but everything was fresh and well prepared. I particularly liked how the noodles were slightly crunchy on the sides and soaked in sauce in the middle. We were a bit too late for the lunch time special prices, so the total came to 30$ for two people. The whole meal only took about 25 mins; the service was quite fast!\n\nI admit that I was surprised. I thought it didn't forebode well as I went in, but in the end I liked it. I'm giving four stars for now and update as I go. We'll probably be back to try their fried rice and whatnot. If you're all about authentic Chinese food, I wouldn't recommend Mon Shing.They serve typical American Chinese cuisine, which is what you would find in most North American chinese buffets, e.g. General Tao and Chop Suey. I'm personally fond of American Chinese food because I used to go to buffets as a child. To feel like eating at Mon Shing is a bit like craving for fast food. We all know it's not the most authentic place, but it's good all the same. \n\nThere's should be no shame in liking American Chinese cuisine!"^^ . "4"^^ . . . . "2017-02-27T00:00:00"^^ . "4"^^ .
