Grease in fryers should be changed once a month. As a restaurant operator for 36 years, the standard is change grease on the first of each month. So by the end of the month, the grease is still good but a week or so later it starts to affect the taste of food.. With the cost of cooking grease today I suspect many restaurant owners are saving money by extending the life cycle of their fryer grease. That does affect the taste and quality of the food.

AGREE ! Actually just went to Ocala this week to do some shopping and have dinner at Harry's....but.... before returning to the V's, we called in and picked up a large order from Yummy House, so much better than anything closer !

Decent Chinese does not exist in The Villages, unless Panda-Express style is something you consider decent. I was about to give up finding a decent Chinese place in the area, but based on a few referrals here, made the easy (25 highway miles) drive up to Ocala to Yummy House -very good - would rate a B+ and will return again.

Interesting. A group of friends were there about 10 days ago thought food had no taste and served in very small portions.

We enjoyed Kayame for a few years before they sold it and thought it was great.

Try the Ichiban Buffet in Leesburg:

10301 US Highway 441 , Leesburg, FL, United States, Florida
(352) 728-6669

The variety is amazing. Quite the selection of Chinese, Japanese and American on the Buffet. My wife and I just ate there on the 10th.
