Fu Xing Chinese Restaurant

Friendly staff, but horrible food.

If you must go, stick with rice and vegetables.

Going by outward, and inward appearances, I was a bit leery to try this place.  But it's the closest Chinese place to my apt. and that's important because none of them seem to deliver around here.  How do you have a town without ANY Chinese delivery?!  Preposterous I say.  But anyway, I took the plunge out of laziness, and reluctance to travel.  I'm glad I did.

Most Chinese places I've experienced are at least palatable, and offer the staples we've all come to expect, such as General Tso's chicken, various Lo-meins, and combo plates.  This place offers all of that, and a lot more.  Their menu is surprisingly expansive for a small takeout restaurant.  Right off the bat, their list of Lunch Specials is 46 items long!  

They offer unique appetizers like Fried Half-Chickens, Chicken Gizzards ( a personal favorite), and Rib Tips.  What really blew my mind was the fact that they make brown rice in addition to the traditional white.  I always prefer brown, and have never encountered a Chinese restaurant that has it.  I was also glad to see that the earliest they ever close during the week is 11pm.  This is nice when those late night cravings hit.  I've only tried a few of their items but they've been consistently good thus far. I've had  the Sesame Chicken, Egg Rolls, and Cold Sesame noodles.  I highly reccomend them.  They say spicy, but they'll happily leave the chili paste out if you wish.  Can't wait to go back.
