Adventure Six: King of China

This week I am choosing to grace you all with the knowledge that is China King! As you no doubt may have realized, I have somewhat of a taste for Asian cuisine. However I find it very difficult to locate a good Chinese food restaurant that does not cost you a large chunk of your savings during any given outing. Enter China King, a small restaurant in the midst of a shopping complex with the bustle of a grocery store. Upon entering the first thing you notice is a line of people waiting by the counter, and a small Buddha statue with the sign taped under it “Rub my tummy 3 times for good luck”, and you damn well better rub it.
China King's setup is very simple, you walk in, you stand in line, order your food, and take a number. It may seem very lazy on their part, and of course it certainly doesn't help that they don't deliver at all; however there is no denying the results. For the low low price of $5.95(plus tax) I regularly get a gigantic take-out sized box of Mongolian beef with onions and rice. Don't mistake though, as with Ba Le, just because its cheap does not mean its not good as hell. They boast a large menu, which is filled with the delicious unhealthy meals that satisfy the soul on any day. In all honesty it could be a dirty old man smoking a cigarette making this food and I would still eat it. Alas, it is instead a friendly staff that never messes up your orders, remembers what you regularly order, and sometimes gives you a free fortune cookie. This can easily be a substitute for your bi-weekly Chipotle, or to satisfy your hunger when its not prime time for Ba Le. So here are the damn scores/Map.


Scores:
food: 5/5
service: 3/5(they remember your orders)
coffee: Not here.
Cost: Inexpensive, feed your family for 15$ yay!
