I called them up for take out. A Chinese lady picked up. I asked for the Chicken Chow Mein $7.50. She asked if I wanted it as a lunch special. Since I didn’t know about it (as I did not see it on Zomato), I asked. She was reluctant in explaining what it was and told me it was such and such $ (more than chow mein) for a special, and so you want, ok? No, I didn’t want that much for lunch and told her I only wanted the Chow Mein.
The place is a hole in the wall. Typical Chinese restaurant that looks run down, and maybe only 10 people can sit inside? There was no one there when I was there to pick up.
I was surprised to find a spring roll, though I later realized that it came with it But it was pretty burnt badly. Boo. The portion was huge! I couldn’t finish it, and ended up saving some for dinner. Taste was alright…
Another time, one of us ordered the Pan Fried Rice Noodles with Beef. I tried a bit, and it was slightly oilier, but I really liked the flavour a lot more! One of our staff did not feel good after consuming it, but the other staff and I were ok, so not sure if it was related to the food.
Last Time
Again for take out, I had the House Special Chow Mein with crispy noodles and toppings on top – my favourite! I was super excited.
However, I was super disappointed. The sauce just seemed like it was soy sauce with no additional flavour. It had an odd smell that was unappetizing… It looked great with shrimp, beef, chicken and broccoli, but it had no flavour and the meat were fatty. I kept sniffing every bite. Something was off. The smell made me nauseous. When I bit into the broccoli, it was really gross. Not sure if the broccoli itself was bad, or the bad meat’s juice had seeped into it, but I had to spit it out. I tried eating it as I hate wasting food, but unfortunately, over half of it went into the trash T_T… I will not go back again.
