Ed's Potsticker House

I ordered a really large meal for take out yesterday, and was extremely thrilled about what was on the menu.  Bao, pot stickers, vegetables and tofus, etc.  My girl and I both ate a decent amount of our slimy, undercooked, OVERLY oily food, and became sick almost immediately afterwards.  I felt as if I had been poisoned, and had gas so bad that my poor dog didn't wanna be in the same room with me.

I'm generally an extremely healthy eater these days, with take out food being a rare treat.  My meal here ruined my whole day off from work, and my nagging stomach pains reminded me to write this review.

I was there this past Friday and ordered my food for carry out, I got the Chicken in Garlic sauce and Shrimp fried rice also picked up Vegetarian fried rice for a friend. On my way home I could not figure out what the awful smell was first thing that came to mind was that Elephant smell from the Zoo I just hoped it was something I drove through kind of smells..unfortunately it was not the Chicken in Garlic sauce tasted like there wasnt any Garlic in it and worse the Chicken tasted like that Elephant smell. The Shrimp fried rice was awful way too much soy sauce and all 6 or 7 of the shrimp sat on top of the rice. My friend also said the Vegetarian fried rice was the worst they ever had. Will never be back as it is suspect that was even real chicken. Sheesh..

So many of the Chinese restaurants around the city seem to fall into the same three categories: Americanized Chinese, Cantonese, or Sichuanese.  Now I've got no problem with any of them, but sometimes you want a bit of variety.  Ed's is Northern Chinese cuisine, and it's pretty damn authentic.  Our Chinese friends have all given it the stamp of approval, so that says a lot.  As the name suggests, try the potstickers.  Every variety of them so far has been delicious.  I've also grown to love the fried bread with the condensed milk injected inside.  It sounds strange, but trust me it's the bomb.  Ed nailed it on that one.  Anyway, Ed's is good.  Come here or be forever damned to a life of redundant Chinese food.
