I went to Chengs in Buffalo Ridge today. I had the Bo Bo Platter for 2 - very good and SO MUCH food, that I took half of it home. I can't wait to go back so I can try the Peking Duck and MooShoo Pork. This is the best Chinese restaurant in the area (I'm from California where great Chinese food is available everywhere). Lots of choices from the extensive menu too.

The best in the area is Sky Asian Fusion in Ocala. It is located on the top floor of the Holiday Inn at the intersection of 75 and 200. It is a bit pricey and it is probably best to make reservations. The service is top notch and the decor makes eating there a true experience. I have had their orange chicken, orange shrimp, duck, tuna, low mein, sweet and sour pork and their fried rice. No where else comes close to any of these dishes. They also have mixed drinks.

I see they also have lettuce wraps...yum.

Going to try this place out next time I'm in Ocala.

Thanks!

Has anyone tried Beijing Gardens on Bichara? I want to try their buffet one day.

[renielarson]

It's just typical, run of the mill....nothing special in my opinion, zcaveman.

Thanks. Neither was the predecessor.

I went to Siam Orchard the other day and had the fried rice. I don't think the Thai fried rice is a good as a Chinese fried rice and want to try a new place. I like the Chinese restaurant in Mulberry but they are not really a sit down restaurant.

I guess I will opt for the buffet at Beijing Garden just to check it out.

I will let you know what I think.

Any good Dim Sum available in TV land?

I agree! They are the best in the state.

And SKY is coming to The Villages this year.

I agree, if you like takeout or very limited seating, go to Colony, but if you want to sit then go to Cheng's in front of Walmart (Buffalo Ridge). Although their dinner prices are alittle high, but lunches are comparable to most .

From a retired restaurant owner, Chinese Gourmet in Colony is doing things right -- they also have a place in Naples and Estero -- menu is on line at < chinagourmet.us > Good food, good service, fair prices and big variety of combined Chinese cuisine on menu -- try it, Lucko
