Default Re: Chinese Food

China Gourmet is acceptable at best. The best in this area anyway. But coming from Chicago and growing up with the best Chinese food the stuff they pass off here as Chinese makes me laugh. So far no place seems to have a grasp on using Chinese vegetable in their dishes. There is a huge lack of water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts snow pea pods etc. Some of the Chinese food out here is absolutely disgusting! Like what's up with just peas and carrots in fried rice?
But that said if I do venture out for some China Gourmet on 466A comes sort of close. nice clean place and so far ok. I hear Orlando has some great Chinese restaurants but that's so far.
