Jack Chen II Chinese Restaurant

the food doesn't taste good here!

Well so much for bubble/boba tea in Springfield. Oh well. It was fun while it lasted. Still a fan though. Veggie menu keeps me satisfied.

I came here for lunch with my mom, meeting up with my boyfriend and his parents along the way. I had no idea what to expect from this place as Yelp and their website aren't exactly loaded with information. This place is a take-out restaurant with two small tables and a few chairs inside. We managed to get the 6 of us around one of these small tables, and hunched together we managed to almost fend off the cold (their heat wasn't working) with our body heat.

The food was not so great, although my mom said it was really good. It's probably about what you would expect from a take-out Chinese restaurant, except that they also have a slew of vegetarian options. They were nice, but not as good as what I'm accustomed to from places like Grasshopper and My Thai in Boston.

I probably won't be back here again, but that's mostly because I don't live in Springfield.
