!.5 Million Chickens and Ducks
by CastIronChef
I was taken to this place by an Asian man who has been going here for over 35 years – he tells me that the chef there has cooked a million and a half chickens and ducks in that time. Soy sauce chicken is the best I've ever had. Roast duck is exceptional as well. Wonderful vegetable dishes. I read one review that complained about 'fatty pork.' They much have had the side pork which is exceptionally fatty by design. When fresh from the kitchen, the burnt skin is fantastic but it does dry out a bit when you take it home in a closed box. Service depends on time and business but I have had hot food on my table in less than sixty seconds. When dinner time rolls around, the cars are double parked up the block for hours getting bbq pickup – not the case anywhere else in ID.
- Pros: Side pork is to die for
Good take out- love the crispy roasted pork
by FionnaSnow
The only thing I love in this restaurant is the lovely crispy roasted pork. Crunchy, tasty, and fresh - only if you come in around 4:30 or after. This is the time they have the fresh crispy roasted pork come out from the oven. A lot of Chinese mom/grandma,grandpa come in this time for the fresh roasted pork. Chinese elderly people are the smartest groups to shop for very cheap but also tasty food. If you eat their lunch special at noon, and come back after 4:30 for the same order or roasted pork, you can definitely tell the difference. And plus, it's cheap. under 6 bucks. Hey, the above information is only apply to weekdays, Not sure about their weekends hours cuz I don't work at wkends. Oh, don't blame me on other food they offer in the restaurant, remember, I only recommend the Roasted Pork , especially if you come in between 4:30 - 6pm
- Pros: Fresh, crunchy, tasty roasted pork, cheap price
- Cons: parking
