Asia Garden

I have just recently went back to my old haunt for boneless spare ribs and house rice. It seems the owners have changed and so has the recipes. The ribs to me are all right but def not as good as the previous owner.

I'm not much of a takeout person, but I have enjoyed the food from Asia Garden and it has become my go-to spot when I don't feel like cooking.  The lo mein is good & not greasy (which is unusual!)  The spring rolls are surprisingly flavorful & fresh tasting (normally, I find spring rolls good but nothing special, so these stand out to me).  My only complaint?  When I get the moo shu, I'd love it if they included a few more of the pancake/wrapper thingies.  I'll have to remember to request more the next time I get food there!

Looking for a quick dinner in-town, I stopped in to Asian Garden last night.  This is a take-out and deliver only spot which looks like a hundred others.  Dozens of poorly-aligned food pics above the counter, three chairs for waiting and a counter.

My take-out was roast pork lo mein, and I was very pleasantly surprised by its quality.  The lo mein was neither greasy nor salty, and was loaded with meat.  The standard issue lo mein noodle was used, and there were few veggies, but certainly enough to produce a familiar comfort food flavor.  The pork was fresh and sliced into long julienne (matchsticks), making it a bit chewy, but nothing which detracted from the preparation.

There appears to be an attention to quality here, and the gentleman at the counter was pleasant and welcoming.  I'll be back to try more of their menu under less pressured circumstances.
