We never did figure it out, but on the way back to I-64 we decided to have some Chinese at China King. Is China King a big chain? There is one with he same name in Kill Devil Hills, NC where we had just driven from. I suppose there are only so many words that they can find to put before or after China and a few are bound to be repeated. We both had chicken dishes. I will say the lunch portions are pretty large and modestly priced. I don't recall what exactly I had but Ms T had her usual Broccoli Chicken. I wanted plenty of vegetables, some chile heat and a sauce that was not sweet. So I told the lady that and that is what I got. I'm tired of accidentally getting the super sweet sauces and the battered, fried chicken and no vegetables. It is best to just ask. The food was OK and as I said, plentiful. But it was pretty bland and boring. Extra spicy was not spicy at all. The sauces were pretty light without much flavor. The vegetables were crisp and also generous. So, the food was not bad, just not remarkable. In a larger city, I would rate this two stars, but In New Baden with limited choices for Chinese, I guess I will round up to three.

Finally, we were craving Chinese/Vietnamese food and we decided to try it again. We had the green beans, the veggie fried rice, crab Rangoon, hot braised chicken, and Mi Xao Dun. All were a delight. The food was plentiful and of a higher quality than I have been able to find for a long time! The food was hot, fresh, a great amount for the price and course the proprietor, Kelly, is awesome.

I wanted to be fair, so I have intentionally waited until we have been here three visits. We have…read moregone for lunch each time. The first was while in a hotel when we first arrived in June to move into our "forever home" in Staunton (about 10 miles away). We went again a month or so after moving in. We went today (Sunday lunch) because we wanted to pick up a few things at Walmart. Understand where I (we) are coming from. My wife spent her childhood in Hawaii, and her father is Japanese. I am an Army veteran, and have been to plenty of Asian restaurants around the world. I do have a tough standard. I am sincerely not trying to punch down. I want this place to be good, it would be better for my retirement years for it to be good. It is the closest option for buffet. Our Staunton option is a menu only, and it is also not a good option, at all. I understand that a place needs to cater to its patrons to be profitable. I am not saying they don't try, I'm not saying they don't care. I do understand that americanized and (bland) is what they need to lean into. Our lunch today was $40 and we both left unsatisfied. I am willing to eat anything and have the girth to prove it. My wife is a bit more particular, but certainly has the ability to provide a decent value judgement on the things she chooses. There just are not consistently good choices to be had here. The "sushi" for example is marginal at best. There are more breaded/fried items than truly exist in Asian menus at other places I have been. The other items almost always have a sauce that is salt and sugar forward. There are very few spices/textures that I would expect from a Chinese menu. It is relatively clean, the people working here do try to do a good job. I appreciate the effort required to put all this together for us. It has the standard Chinese restaurant decorations (I think there is a kit that can be ordered from somewhere), but they haven't overdone it. I do understand and accept that people like this place, and appreciate the offerings. I am in no way looking down on their preference, [To each their Own] and please continue to enjoy it. If you are however, just passing through, it may not be the best stop for good Chinese food, okay "food" sure, but not on par with other options I have enjoyed.
