Pak Ling Express

I ordered a mushroom chicken with fried rice around 2pm and they made my order quickly. As expected, there's not a lot of options left at this time and most of the food were a bit dry but the fried rice is still good. Lunch time is the best time to go here as probably the dishes are freshly cooked.

I was honestly surprised by the quality of the food here. I ordered the Beef Lo Mein and my boyfriend had the one entrée meal with Sesame Chicken and lo mein.

They cooked my Beef Lo Mein fresh and the beef was -incredibly- tender. Chinese takeout beef has no business being as pleasantly tender as it came out in my order. The mushrooms and broccoli were good as well. It wasn't overly oily, which was nice. My only complaint/suggestion is that the dish could improve with some minced garlic and possibly some scallions added in for extra flavor.

The Sesame Chicken seemed like pretty average fare, it didn't stand out spectacularly but was nice and hot despite being under a heat lamp for however long.

The service was average, but I did notice they -do- charge for a water cup (about $0.25 if I recall correctly). Drinks run about $2.00 more or less, and I'm not quite sure if they offer refills.

I honestly didn't expect much for it being more of a tourist-ridden place but the beef in the beef lo mein was really really good for no apparent reason. It was also cheaper than the one entrée meal, so I'd recommend ordering the beef lo mein if nothing else.

Ordered Szechuan Garlic Pork. It comes with fried rice and a spring roll. The food was cooked fresh and made to order. They were also very quick (less than 5 minutes). The taste was good, although the fried rice is OK. The price is decent (it was 7.99+tax) and you can dine-in/eat there.
