I will give them this: they might be the best Chinese food restaurant in east york...a notoriously under served community where Chinese food is concerned (note to enterprising would-be Chinese food restauranteurs...open here, deliver and make good food...you will have a captive market!). \n\nThe good:\n- decent prices \n- quick \n- chicken balls were good\n\nThe not-so good:\n- ginger beef was bland. Like really really bland. \n- Singapore noodles had no curry flavour, bland\n- fried dumplings,not so fried and bland\n- general tao chicken, boring bland and not good \n- lemon chicken was not lemon-y....bland \n- spring rolls. Flavourless. Like frozen. Bland. \n- no fortune cookies in the bag!!! Whaaat???\n\nI bet if you just ordered chicken balls and rice it would be just fine. Not great. But totally serviceable. \n\nNow considering some of the other disasters in the neighbourhood - SANDY's at woodbine and danforth, eden on coxwell for example - this place was a welcome upgrade. But it was not 5 out of 5. No way. It was ok. Just ok. Not good, not even average (Manchu Wok is average to me). And certainly not 5/5. \n\nWhy can't these places hire a qualified cook and buy decent and fresh ingredients and then make sure they do the service right (like why no delivery??? Isn't that a basic requirement for staying in business as a chinese food joint?). \n\nSeems an easy formula."^^ . "0"^^ . . "0"^^ .
