Average crap bland greasy fast food Chinese for reasonable (not cheap) prices. Massive portion sizes will make you fall asleep at your desk. Minimal spice, so if you are sensitive to spicy stuff, you may confidently order away. Their menus on the back wall/counter are needlessly vague and generally without prices. I have been there half a dozen times and I still don't really understand what is a combo, what is a lunch special, or whether there is really a difference, other than one nets average crab rangoons. Just pick something, and get what you want with it. If its lunch time, you will likely spend less than $10. They might pack your 'for here' items in a to go package. They might tell you to sit down and they will deliver your food - but no napkins or plastic forks. Reading all of the above, it is easy to understand why this place gets one star. It is not easy to understand why I keep going back, however.

All the standards are here - beef chop suey, general's chicken, crab rangoon. The kung pao chicken stands out as great, with the right amount of spice and nuts in it. You can see can see back into the kitchen, and I saw two chefs working on disk-sled sized woks. Man! That's got to be the hardest job on earth. Kudos to the chefs at Ching's for doing a great job :D

Bought something from this Chinese restaurant in Normal as carryout. Ching's is pretty much a basic…read moreplace to get Americanized Chinese food. It has a counter to order at and a few tables. From the looks of things, most people don't want to stick around. They get it to go, and get out. About the most basic looking Chinese restaurant there is to be honest. It's sparsely decorated and has a generally boring atmosphere inside. This is located in a boring strip mall next to a gaming lounge. Go inside and order at the counter. It's about $12 for an entree. We got Szechuan Fried Tofu With Vegetable. A generous portion came in the container. The tofu was kind of chewy and overcooked. Had a pretty good spice to it. This came with cabbage, mushrooms, and pea pods. For sure if not minding the atmosphere it's a pretty okay place for cheap food. It's located on Main Street in a crappy looking plaza. There's a few things made with tofu okay for vegetarians.
