Oh yummers! 😋😋😋 

I REALLY dislike Chinese food. However this place wasn’t bad. Simple spring roll with cabbage only, teriyaki chicken, peppered steak, sweat and sour chicken and a bit of lo mein. Teriyaki chicken and peppered steak had very little sauce and it was runny and I didn’t use the sweet and sour sauce just some soy sauce on the noodles and spring roll. Danny ate half his box and 4 spring rolls. The kids (15, 12 & 7) and I ate 2/3 of two more boxes plus 5-6 spring rolls and Danny finished the rice. We have enough for a small meal of leftovers (I’ll gladly eat the leftover taco meat so they can have this) for the kids and a whole big meal left for Danny. Not bad for $50.10! We can’t eat at a fast food burger place for less than $50 now and that’s only one meal. Next time I’ll get all peppered steak for me and them whatever they want or get this for them and stop for a burger or pizza for me :).  

That is a good deal of food for the cost. At least you figured out that you like the pepper steak. 👍 

Yep! You know those big square white take out boxes that have two small areas and a large area? They fill the big area piled high with rice or noodles and half the small areas. Then you choose 3 meats to go on top but it’s only like 4 pieces of sweet and sour chicken per meat so 12 total. Pepper steak was about 2-3 cups total for two of the meats. Teriyaki was about a cup max for one meat. Each of the three meat combos are $12 and spring rolls are $10/dozen. Hubby and kids had theirs today (I will eat mine another time) and we had to add in a bit more leftovers to make a full plate for each kiddo. Next time I will cut back on the sweet and sour chicken and spring rolls as the kids don’t like them reheated it seems. I will get a medium combo with two meats for $9 instead and different meats for the large combos so a bit higher but two full meals for about $55-$58. Again that’s about what we spend on burgers and ice cream (if not more) for one meal so it’s a good deal. I can always not get the medium combo and instead go pick up a chik fil a sandwich or burger for myself for the same money since I don’t get fries.
