  Good lo mein, though it was a little bland the first time I tried it. It was saved the next time by adding Penny's Special Sauce, some kind of spicy oil. Good portion sizes (makes two or three meals for me) and good Chinese doughnuts too.

  Cheap Chinese food close to UofL. If you call for carry out they usually have everything ready in ten minutes. Rather than portions being in traditional chinese food boxes (apparently called oyster pails - thanks Google), it is in styrofoam boxes, so I'm pretty sure it fits more food (although I haven't technically compared the container maximum capacities, this is just based on appearance). So I guess what I'm saying is you get a lot of food for the money.  Good stuff.

  I live just down the street from China Inn and its a staple at my apartment. Just about everything I've had here is very good, ESPECIALLY the Thai dishes. The Lad Nah is a unique noodle dish with a delicious brown sauce. The Pad Thai is a perfect blend of sweet and savory. The REAL thing to order though is the Mon/Tue lunch special, a soup called Guay Theo. The bowl is huge and the soup itself a savory, rich broth of stewed beef, celery, broccoli, and spices with rice stick noodles. I get it almost every week, its THAT good.

  I go here a lot because I work right across the street. For a cheap lunch, it's not bad. I really love that they have dim sum and some other dishes you can't find at most Asian take out places. I highly recommend the spring rolls, and the fried tofu comes with a really good spicy peanut sauce. YUM.

  Let me begin by saying that I do not eat rice.  There is something about the texture that makes me want to cut out my tongue and dissolve it in acid.
  
  I will eat the fried rice here, and only here.  In fact, while I was knocked up with my oldest kid, I ate the fried rice here at least twice a week.
  
  Penny (the proprietor) is a kewl, friendly lady.
  
  The crab rangoon is the only disappointment.  It's sweet, weird.
