Great Taste House

that food is really good, and it's cheap.  i got curry chicken on rice, and it was just really good, and under five dollars.  and this big, big portion, with a green curry sauce that wasn't bitter at all. it was like a full dinner.  the egg rolls were good, but best of all were the little spare ribs, which were bbq, and they were just really, really, REALLY tasty, and under six dollars for the small order.  that is some really good food, and i wish i'd gotten more of the bbq...

First the place is really clean. The Staff are friendly and maybe a little strange.

I came in on Feb 6th, 2012 a bit after 1PM. The place was empty but they had a menu in the window. I based my choisce on that! I just want to know they have something I like before I go in.  I saw BBQ Duck!

    First, lose the idea if grilled duck. Maybe BBQ Duck in a Chinese Restaurant can be grilled, but it always seemsd more baked. BBQ, I think describes the spice mix. I LOVE BBQ  Duck!

   They do the best BBQ Duck I have had since I moved from San Francisco. Be prepared to eat it off the bones with your fingers... yes you get a fork but no knife. I aught to carry on ein my bag!   Very succulent and not at all dried out.. oh so juicy!

   I had this with egg rolls which I suspect are home made, and not delivered frozen, very tastey! I never know what to order with BBQ Duck... I had a medium size which is half a duck... so I got Ginger and Scallion Lo Mein. It was a god choice. Very yummy noodles with a bit of bok choy, ginger and green onion. When the duck is nearly done, the noodles dipped in teh duck juices.. is just phenomenal.

   I suspect I am eating this wrong. I suspect I aught to be eatingf it on a pancake with sopme green onion and ginger.... but this really wotked!

    They gave me a bowl of chicken broth that was really good.

    Okay. the staff all seeemed to be having lunch and weer sitting and talking and I seriously like that. I do not want a waiter hovering at my table and bothering me while I chew.... I never felt rushed or ignored! I am certain that if I waived my hand I could hae sidnaled someone. It is really nice to see the staff eat in the restaurant!

My friends and I wandered into this place after the Chinese New Year Parade.  We were cold, hungry, and ready to eat.

I scanned their extensive menu and decided that I would go with something hot and hearty - the shrimp wonton and bbq pork with noodle soup.  My friends ordered similar items plus eggrolls and a noodle dish.

My entree was good - a generous portion of bbq pork, shrimp wonton, and long crazy asian noodles in a tasty broth.  This was not the best I've ever had, but it certainly hit the spot.  My friends seemed to enjoy what they ordered - no complaints.

The only thing that was a bit disappointing was that we weren't served our entrees at the same time.  If I had waited for everyone to get their food, my soup would have been cold and hypoglycemia would have set in.  Service was otherwise OK considering there was a post-parade crowd.

I would come back to see what it's like a on a regular day and to sample the rest of the menu.
