Chao Kong Chinese Restaurant - Eastwood

Era spesso comune per il pranzo, ma per la prima volta qui per cena. Abbiamo ordinato un set di cena a 2 persone che aveva registrato zuppa, vegetato a vapore e riso sui 2 piatti selezionati da quello che puoi scegliere nell'elenco nell'elenco per $ 35,90. Avevamo dolci e maiale acido e satay manzo-vaso vermicelli. Le porzioni erano abbastanza grandi da aver portato via anche qualcosa. Ordina anche un lato della zuppa di Wonton per i nostri piccoli e lei lo amava.

We ordered a two-person dinner set + additional rice for one. Complimentary soup was initially served before the dishes - deep fried salt & pepper flounder, king prawns with vermicelli in XO sauce, and Chinese vegetables - arrived at the table. The fare is your average Chinese food but serving portions are relatively large so we were barely able to finish everything between the three of us. Chao Kong is unique in that it provides booth seating along the sides of the restaurant, which I have to say is more comfortable than sitting on the regular chairs.

Il cibo era quasi buono. Il servizio era abbastanza senza speranza. Mi sono seduto e ho visto come le linee dei clienti formulate per pagare e nessuno da servire. Probabilmente torna a portare via, non cibo.

Ah the MSG was killing me by the end. It's always good for a few bites, then I start struggling. Service was extremely slow, i.e. we had to ask three times for the same thing to actually receive it. As expected, they can't understand you if you speak english, and have to go get someone else. We ordered a veg hot pot (saltiest), wonton noodle soup (which seemed alright), and low hon vegetable fried noodle. They use egg noodles for the fried noodles, but they were happy to change to rice noodles when requested. Also asked for mine without oyster sauce (veganized) and it was still tasty. A lot more tolerable in terms of saltiness than the hot pot, probably because the noodles helped to make it less intense. I probably wouldn't go back. The struggle was real and I had to drink 1L of water afterwards.

Peppered pork tripe soup with rice set lunch. Enough said. Except bout the waitress having difficulty caring enough to bring a fork for our 5 year old (despite us asking nicely twice)... still worth the sub service. Yum.
