. . "Look, if you have a hankering for Chinese food at a reasonable price, and you're based anywhere in the general vicinity of Bakery Square, China Garden fulfills the requirement.\n\nI went to the buffet this evening, and it's really what anyone would expect from a Chinese buffet in a strip mall.\n\nSure, some of the food might taste a little different. Different cooks prepare dishes in different ways. And hot food sitting in steam trays for a little while isn't going to be the freshest. It's but a minor hurdle to get over.\n\nOK, the service might not be great. You have to realize that in Asian cultures, it's customary for restaurant staff to mostly leave patrons alone to enjoy their meals.\n\nAnd yes, the selection isn't big. It's not that big of a place. It's tucked into A STRIP MALL.\n\nI think it's good. I don't live in the area, so I probably won't go back for a while. But for everyone us reading this, it's worth a try.\n\nBy the way, the sleeper hit is the macaroni and cheese. I went back for a second helping. And just try a serving spoonful of the things you like. You can go back for more if there's a particular food item that you like."^^ . "2017-08-27T00:00:00"^^ . "0"^^ . "0"^^ . . "1"^^ . "4"^^ .
