    Neh Ho Mah. That's Hello in Cantonese. And this place definitely serves Cantonese. So what about China City? I had no idea that this place existed until we got a mailing from them that included a takeout menu. Two things surprised me a lot when I saw the menu. First, the dishes offered are kind of "old school." These are the Chinese dishes that I remember from the 1960's. You just don't see these kinds of Cantonese dishes on most Chinese menus anymore because the pendulum has swung the more trendy schools of Chinese cooking such a Szechanese, Hunanese, Mandarin and the like. Back when I was a kid, we didn't have all that. We just had the classic Cantonese food with dishes like Moo Goo Gai Pan and Hong Sieu Gai. You just don't see those much anymore, but the China City menu had them all. Think Chow Mein, Lo Mein and Chop Suey. This is '60s Chinese food. The other thing that surprised me was just how cheap the menu prices seemed. So I decided to give the place a try. I would sum up the consumption experience this way: The food was OK. It was not the best Cantonese food I have ever had, and in fact I thought it was pretty middle of the road. But the big shocker was the value. The total bill over $ 40 before the discount, but I actually paid only right around $ 30.00 after applying it. The discounts are available as coupons on the takeout menu. The portions are huge and the number of dishes I got for $ 30 was staggering. We will be eating Chinese food for days and probably not be able to finish it all. Here is what I got for $ 30. - 4 Egg Rolls - 1 Qt. of Wonton Soup - 1 Qt. of Almond Boneless Chicken - 1 Qt. of Beef Broccoli - 1 Qt. of Triple Delight (Chicken Beef & Shrimp with Chinese Vegetables) - 1 Qt. of Shrimp Fried Rice -1 Qt. of White Rice The above normally goes for $ 29.95 as a Family Pack but we added some of our favorites: - 1 order of Bar-Be-Que Roast Pork (Char Sieu) - 1/2 order of Shrimp Egg Foo Yeoung (this came with more white rice) The grand total before discount for all of the above came to $ 42, but after applying a $ 12 discount for orders over $ 40, the total bill came to just $ 30.00! Well I cannot imagine what a full order of Egg Foo Yeoung might look like, because the egg patties were huge. A half order was so big that it filled one of the quart Styrofoam take out containers and each patty weighed a lot. The Egg Foo Yeoung was right out of the '60s and very tasty. The dish had lots of big shrimp and it came temperature hot and well sauced. The Char Sieu was a little disappointing. Although the portion size was generous, I am not used to roast pork so heavily sauced and the slices were kind of choppy and non-uniform. I have had better Char Sieu. But it wasn't bad; just not great. The Wonton soup was fairly generic. There were no vegetables or meat present in the broth. We just got broth and wontons. We found the broth to be flavorful, but the wontons themselves were a bit doughy and not so well filled. It was OK, but not spectacular. The Egg Rolls were fairly generic as well and nothing to write home about. The Almond Boneless Chicken (not my favorite dish) was surprisingly generous. I think we got 4 huge full breast pieces that were breaded and cut into huge hunks. There was so much chicken in a quart sized serving that a family of four could eat this. It was tasty, but as I said, this is not one of my favorites. The Beef Broccoli was not bad. There was plenty of beef. It was not skimpy on the meat, but I have had better Beef Broccoli. The Triple Delight was better. It was generous and had plenty of nice Chinese vegetables like Bok Choy. And since the other dishes did not have much in the veggie content, this was a nice balance. The Shrimp Fried Rice presented another nice surprise. It was served with lots of large whole shrimp and the portion size, like all the rest of the order, was gargantuan. The fried rice was in the 60's style too and had some chopped scallions and other Chinese vegetables. The fried rice was better than a lot of the upscale places serve, in my opinion. So now we will be eating Chinese food for a few days. I have never taken out Chinese food, with so much to eat for just $ 30.00. As I said, some of it was fairly mediocre, and some of it was pretty good but I suspect that if you know what to order at China City, you can eat pretty well. If you are looking to feed a large crowd of hungry people who are not looking for a gourmet experience, this might be the ideal place to take out from. I think the menu says "No Delivery", but I seem to recall seeing some local delivery mentioned on a sign. Better check if you need delivery. The restaurant has a couple of tables, so I guess it is possible to eat there, but this is really a take out venue. The menu can be found online at: beyondmenu.com/20405/Sou… Joy Geen!

    New business with pretty good prices. Went to try it today and found that it is more carry out than eat in. Only two booths and I think it is self service. Kind of like fast food. We wanted a sit down restaurant so we did not try it. Just wanted to tell others about this. That is the only reason we gave it three stars. Food could be much better than that, we just don't know for sure.

    Food was awful! Everything was very nasty with no flavor. The sauces are watery and tasteless. The price was high and the portions small. They gave the wrong price over the phone and then in person hiked up the price. Then the manager gave me a hard time about the $5.00 coupon. The egg rolls and crab Rangoon was so awful. As the other review on here, which by the way I just saw and should have looked up first, I threw away $30 worth of food. First time I ever did that. You have been warned! Go at your own risk but don't say I didn't tell you!

    The food here is awful. Save your money. i ordered crab ragoons, they had nothing in them expect like a smear of the spread and you couldn't taste it. They were hard. The egg rolls had only bean sprouts in them no flavor. And the combination meals are half the size of all the other chinese restaurants you would go to for the same price. We threw out the 30 dollars in food we ordered it was that bad. And when I told him about my coupon he said it's only expected with cash which I did not have on me , when my husband called he changed it to oh the owner told us to say that. He then said he couldn't do anything because he already ran my card.

Chinese Cuisine

The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.

Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.

There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.
