    After many years of living in Merida, I wanted to eat at Kon-Tiki, so today we made the mistake of…read moretrying them out. What a disappointment, the place is stuck back in the 60s, my wife says the place has not changed anything since she was a little girl. The restaurant doesn't feel like you're in a Chinese Restaurant, there is no Chinese Lanterns, nor Chinese paintings on the walls, and no Chinese music playing in the background. We ordered the way overpriced Pork Fried Rice and Pepper and Beef, well like that old Wendy's commercial for the 80s where the old lady says " Where's the Beef" the Pepper and Beef, had hardly any beef, in it, and the beef that was there was a cheap cut, and thin. The pork fried rice, was overcooked and the pork had no taste, and very salty. The one thing nice was that they give you Crispy noodles and duck sauce with Chinese Hot Mustard when you arrive. We should have gone to P. F. Changes, their food is 100 times better. The waiter was a very nice guy, seems like he has been there forever.

And those cities also have really bad Chinese food. But this is the worst Chinese food I have ever had. I spit out the egg rolls, I spit out the rice with shrimp, both on first bite. Nothing about this tasteless food has anything to do with China.
