9.0/10 Would orange chicken again.

Tasted the honey walnut shrimp then drove 6 hours to slap my momma.

Meh out of meh. Will eat if convenient, will not actively seek as a food option.

Haven't ate somewhere with drive through since college days. Would rather toss an extra couple bucks in and get a burrito at a place like Chipotle.

Maybe if I drove six hours to slap your momma as well, it would change my verdict?
I pretty much only ever order General Tso's chicken from places like this anyway.

Not sure if...old and don't understand? You slap your momma when you eat something good. To punish her for keeping you from said good thing your whole life.

They have an Angus steak stirfry dish that is pretty good. Costs an extra $1, though.

In my day, we respected our mothers! Now get off my damn lawn!

WHAT!? In this economy!? 10 points from Slytherin!

Insider pro tip: If you ask for "half and half" (chinese for 'a little of both'), they give you rice AND noodles! :biggrin:

For fast Asian food, it's pretty decent. At least around here the veggies in all the dishes are pretty fresh, not overcooked and oversauced. And the portion you get for $7 is huge.

So if Chipotle handed you your custom ordered burrito through a little window, it would suddenly cease to be as good?

That's pretty dumb.

Honey walnut shrimp. :thumbsup: Don't care whether it's authentic or as good as your local whatever place or anything else. It tastes great.
Eat it all, though, 'cause it's not as good the next day. Loses its crisp.

I could literally survive on eating their orange chicken and chow mein.

Haha, if "survive" means "die of a heart attack at age 40."

That stuff is pretty good though. The Panda near me doesn't have a drive through though. Panda's good for quick and convenient drive through meals, but if I have to get out of my car and order, I'd rather go to one of the mom and pop restaurants that have slightly better food for around the same price.

Gross.

Deep fried caged meat doused in artificially flavored mystery goo and served up in a cardboard box.
