Rolando comments on How to find great Chinese food

Oh yeah, I know that place.

constant stream of Asian students from the nearby university
enormous menu, but somehow everything is made quickly
additional staff are either family from the old country, or Latinos
flyers in Mandarin (?) for things like churches, lawyers, and real estate agents.

Also the menu is huge but it's all composed from like 6 ingredients.

it depends on the chinese in question. its because the people in Shen Yun are from the Falun Gong, which was a notorious religious group im china that was exiled and migrated to the U.S. The are staunchly anti CCP

Ehhh, they're really only anti-CCP in the fact that they're mad THEIR boots aren't the ones doing the stomping. They're still authoritarians, just not of the communist stripe.

It's because of the 4 jet engines they call wok burners they got back there. Brings chicken from frozen to perfectly cooked in thirty seconds, complete with that smokey wok hei flavor
