...and I'm so desperate I'm calling this place across the street which has awfully lame food.

Their menu says they open at 10:00, but no one's answering the phone.

They take forever to make the food, so there's no way I'm going to go SIT over there while they do it.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh.


"The food here is terrible!"

"I know! And such small portions!!!"

I was looking at mu shu pork but now I'm thinking I'll go with General's Chicken (#30). I've never tried one of their "specialties," so maybe it's
at least marginally better.

If they'd answer the fucking phone.

I don't want to eat at Carl's again, and I'm kinda sick of the gyros place.

Well, I'm trying a different restaurant in the plaza I'd forgotten about.

It's not bad. I'd eat there again.

...I was looking at the chicken with ginger and green onions, too. Ginger sounded kind of good.

This is kinda spicy. My head is sweating.

You think my fortune is true or not? Yes or no and then I'll post what it says.

Believe it or not, I've only had pad thai once. I'm not sure if I had good pad thai or not, but I didn't really want to finish it. The texture was
kind of.... odd.

Sounds like vermicili noodles...I'm not big on those myself,texture wise....but I must say the cook seems to have hit the ground beef in this pie with a little worscheter and it's working 4 me....(y)

Yeah, well he still didn't answer my question because can't find something that no longer exists.



It depends on what your definition of "is" is.

PF Changs sucks. Can't stand it. Waaaay overrated and waaaay to americanized chinese food. I hate that place. It is fucking garbage.

Now Oriental Express on the other hand is awesome. I love it. Cheap, tasty, and fast. I love that place. It is fucking heaven.

there are no chinese food chains around here. they are all family owned and operated.

Is this M & J's? We've got an M & J Oriental Express in Santa Clara that's surprisingly good. The place looks corny as hell, but the food's
actually pretty good.


Mr. Chau's, however, is awful. Panda Express, too.

well if you give up on finding something, then the fortune is irrelevant. finding something and being satisfied with the fact that it doesn't exist are two different things

Its a mom and pop operation. On my way home. Its nice to be able to place my order as I'm shutting down my computer and getting there right as the order is ready. It only postpones my home arrival time by about 2 minutes. Shit, I think I may do that tonight.
