The Thai Chi Express

I'm there two to three times a month

My 2nd job trying to win the jackpots

Gambling Addict Confucius say "Engage in Thai Chi, see loose slots"

Inside San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino, located at Tutu's Food Court, Thai Chi Express offers quick casual Asian Fusion for casino goers. Ready made food sits in warming trays, with a la carte options, as well.

Tutu's Food Court has diners pay first, then show the receipt to the corresponding eatery. For $9.95 (less $1 for Club Serrano Classic members), you can get a 3 item combo. A few rotating items accompany the stalwarts like orange chicken, chicken wings etc. Start with choice of steamed rice, vegetable fried rice, vermicelli noodles, chow mein and/or steamed vegetables. From what I've had, I really enjoy the fried chicken wings (that's a no brainer. I'm a wingman, naturally), beef curry & pork spare ribs. The wings have a crispity crunchy breading over the juicy meat. The beef curry has spicy coconut milk with strips of beef. The tender, sweet glazed pork spare ribs are great, most especially the fatty bits. A few soups are on hand for those looking for some soup for the soul. I had the beef & vegetable soup and it was hearty. Chunks of beef which may have been too chunky, but the broth was well spiced & soothing.

Thai Chi Express' a la carte items include pad Thai, fried rice, ramen & udon, among others. I haven't asked if the ramen is the more authentic stuff, and not the instant kind. I'll find out the next time I'm there.

Service has been okay. The cashiers seem speedy enough & the staff boxing up my selections have been pleasant. Seating available, with booths, tables & quick eat standing tables.

Of the food choices at Tutu's Food Court inside San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino (Thai Chi Express, La Tortilla Rellena, Oasis Burger & Grab & Go), Thai Chi Express appeals to me the most, both in value & taste. Portion are good to plentiful (depending how generous the staff is feeling that day) & the prices are about right, considering the venue. After having a filling lunch, I'm once again ready to do battle with the horde of nickel slots that stand between me & cash money glory.

Highly recommend!
