Malcolm X Ave Between Quincy St. &amp; Gates Ave.<br />
718-919-7176<br />
(Deliver=Yes for 50 cents)<br />
NO MSG</p>
<p><a href="http://www.greedysnob.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/3396704357_3b9798339d.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-116" title="Chicken Wings &amp; Fried Rice" src="http://www.greedysnob.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/3396704357_3b9798339d-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>This is a hood chinese restaurant so dont expect to sit in there to eat. Theres a little bench you can sit on to wait for your food. But thats it. The cooks and cashier are behind a <a href="http://12021fz0q80hunqqfz4b3zo50c.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_top">bullet</a>proof plexiglass window right where they need to be!</p>
<p>I only tend to stick to particular dishes when I go to ghetto <a href="http://406be64bj08n1hmoj8yisgjuf6.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_top">Chinese</a> restaurants. Now dont get me wrong, I love these types of restaurants. They tend to have the best food! But theyre ghetto and if you go to one, youll see why. If you live in or have visited any residential ethnic (mostly ethnicities other than white) neighborhoods, you will know these types of restaurants. Though, in areas like Chelsea, The Lower East side, Fort Greene and Park Slope etc. they wont have bullet proof windows (mostly because these neighborhoods are gentrified..aka..white people live there so people feel safer lol)</p>
<p>Now keep in mind this is NOT traditional chinese food. Meaning, this isnt really chinese food. Chinese people just cook it.</p>
<p>Antyway&#8230;onto the dishes</p>
<p>Chicken Wings/Half of Chicken:<br />
The chicken wings are good. Although most of these chinese restaurants LOOK the same. Their chicken wings vary, some are good..some, not so much. King food almost tastes like somebody black is cookin the chicken. Its nice and crispy (but you have to tell them &#8220;fry it hard&#8221;). Also, its best if you tell them to chop the chicken up first before they put it in the oil. That way all the greasy goodness can get into the center of the wing and cook the meat up nice and well. And they know me in that store so they know not to take my chicken out of the grease until I tell them to. Thats a plus in my book. Remembering how I like my stuff and sticking to it! If they were a sit down restaurant i&#8217;d give em a good tip for that. If you&#8217;re more of a meat lover, you might prefer the Half of Chicken.</p>
<p>Tip, if you&#8217;re in the mood for it, throw some hotsauce and ketchup on there and youll be singing chicken praises lol. Chinese restaurant chicken is the only chicken that tastes right with hot sauce and ketchup on it.</p>
<p>Fried Rice:<br />
The fried rice is decent, not the best but damn sure not the worst. They dont put anything fancy in it. All they put are onions, bean sprouts (i hate bean sprouts) and whatever your choice of meat. (ie, pork fried rice, beef fried rice, etc). I personally just get my rice plain with onions. I dont like all that weird meat in my rice. Too much going on! And how do you REALLY Know thats pork, beef or chicken? The texture is usually a little off, and plus beef in these restaurants are always rubbery&#8230;so I&#8217;ll pass. It would be nice if they put carrots, peas and eggs in the rice but I guess this place isnt close enough to manhattan to get all fancy. The closer you get to manhattan, the more stuff you get in your rice. REMEMBER THAT!</p>
<p>French Fries:<br />
Getting fries from this place is a gamble. Sometimes theyre stale, so good luck with that. They have the medium sized french fries. Not skinny like mcdonalds, but not fat like potato wedgies. And theyre not the kind with the ridges in them. Their french fries leave much to be desired. So, I usually stick with the fried rice.</p>
<p>BBQ Spare Ribs:<br />
NOT FEELING THEM AT ALL! first of all, theyre too big. I like my ribs thin and petite. these seem like DINOSAUR ribs or something. And since theyre big and thick, they arent well done enough for me and I end up having to cook them again in the toaster oven when I get home. So Im gonna say PASS on the spare ribs.</p>
<p>BBQ Spare rib tips:<br />
The rib tips are better than the ribs, but they love giving you GIANT ones. Whats with them and GIANT rib dishes? And if you ask them to chop the ribs up more, they get an attitude. Yeah the lady in that place has a bit of an attitude. But I guess I would too if I had to work in the chinese restaurant all day every day even on weekends. Sucks to be HER.</p>
<p>Broccoli with Garlic Sauce:<br />
Im just gonna stop getting this dish because they NEVER get it right! Either they dont cook the broccoli enough, or they cook it TOO MUCH! I dont like my broccoli crunchy, I like it soft but still in the shape of broccoli! Today I got it and it was mushy and soupy! They need to get their act together and learn how to follow directions. Or maybe I need to learn how to give better directions&#8230;or just cook my own damn food! But I dont know how to make broccoli with garlic sauce, and If I did, I wouldnt WANT TO! thats what I have THEM for.</p>
<p>Egg Foo Young:<br />
This is one of my FAVORITE dishes from there. Again, I dont get any meat in it because I dont know wtf that meat really is and honestly its just too much going on. I just get onions in there and its good as hayell! I usually get it with fried rice instead of white rice. Throw some hot sauce on there and you&#8217;re good to go.</p>
<p>Won Ton Soup:<br />
Their wonton soup is pretty good..for MY preference. Sometimes they fuck it up though. I think sometimes they have a different cook in there and he doesnt know wtf he&#8217;s doing..but MOST of the time its right. I like my wontons kind of tough. Tough noodles are always good to me..but dont eat the meat in the middle cuz I dont know WTF that is! I usally eat the noodle around it and chuck the meat. But you do need that meat in the middle cuz it adds flavor. And the little strips of pork floating around in the soup are ok. I usually eat one, and throw away the rest. The people in there know me so they remember to put EXTRA SCALLIONS! I have them well trained haha..the broth is usually good. Nice and salty (but not too salty), unless the dude who effs it up is there.</p>
<p>Happy meals:<br />
I like that they have specials called happy meals where there are a few dishes that you can mix and match. Like theyll give you chicken wings, rib tips and french fries&#8230;or fried shrimp, chicken wings and fried rice. Theres a whole combo side of the menu.</p>
<p>All of these dishes are pretty cheap in price range (but not cheap ENOUGH hahahahha) All of the aforementioned dishes are between 3 and 5 dollars. Its funny how I call them dishes, when they come in styrofoam trays, and paper containers. YAY GHETTO CHINESE FOOD!</p>
<p>Also, if you spend 8 dollars you get a free soda. Their chinese ice t is good, in a DIABETES sorta way! Theres more sugar than tea in that shyt!</p>
<p>If you get your food delivered, dont believe the dude who calls and says &#8220;yeah you can come downstairs and get your food now&#8221;..because when you get downstairs, HIS ASS is not gonna be there yet! He&#8217;s lazy and doesnt want to wait for you to come down, so he calls people before he leaves the chinese restaurant, so that YOU can be waiting for HIM once he gets there. HE GOT HIS NERVE!!!!</p>
<p>If you go in and order your food, expect to be annoyed cuz theres always some loud ass people in the chinese restaurant&#8230;but if its any consolation, if youre a weed head, you can probably get you some weed while you wait HAHAHA (im not a weed head..im just SAYIN! lol)</p>
<p>Update: I forgot to mention MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PAPER TOWELS AT HOME! Cuz the people in the Chinese restaurant are cheap as HELL! U ask them for napkins, they give you A NAPKIN! yes A! as in ONE! wtf am i gonna do with ONE napkin! And dont ask for more soy sauce! They act like you asked them for their first born child! You prolly got a better chance at getting their first born than you do getting extra napkins and soy sauce without attitude lmao<br />
(yes I said &#8220;prolly&#8221;! we make up words over here! where the hell do you think words come from? people make em up! duh lol)</p>
