If Kung Pao Chicken or Moo Goo Gai Pan get your mouth watering, this thread is for you. Not only would it be great to give your choice for the best overall but I'd love to hear what dish (or combination in the case of buffets) stands out.

I go to, and love, Lucky Kitchen. I haven't been to any of the others.

Dragon's Garden is the one I go to if I want something fast b/c its within walking distance of my apartment, but nothing beats Kings Island.

Sly, I believe the name of the second one is Good Taste, not Great Taste

I like King's Island while I was a student there, so that will get my vote.

You should change it to best Oriental, because Thai '99 is the best around.

I've been thinking about going there for a while. Is it real spicey? I mean I like spicey, but I like to be able to taste the food more.

You can get it mild (no spice), medium, hot, or Thai hot. I get Thai hot, but its different than say, Mexican hot. It doesn't hurt the mouth....has a nice flavor.

So long as it's dead, I don't care. Well, mostly dead anyway.

Which one is the one with the "Yummy Yummy" sauce. It's an unidentified white sauce, but it lives up to it's quite shady name.

Osaka's has the "Yummy sauce". I hate to admit it, but I liked Osaka's alot so long as I was no more than 3, no make that 2 minutes from a bathroom.

Had it again while I was just there. Not as good as I remembered, but I'd still go back.

:nod I've made it several times...but there are a few spices that they use which is the tiny piece of red specks you see



Osaka's really made me mad the other night...they charged me for the yum yum! So I said fine, I'll just eat it here!...sat down opened it up and went to where they have the yum yum dispenser....I dont get that! People who dine in get all they want, but to go people get charged?

I have been to Osaka's and I enjoyed it. I also went to King House down 29 and they say they have the best sesame chicken around...I dont know about the best around but it was really good the time I went there with a couple guys from my dorm

Even though it is Japanese, I would like to say that KOTO has the best lunch deal around and is very tasty. The only draw back being you smell like the food for the rest of the day!

OK, you guys are forcing me into adding a Non-Chinese Asian category. Stay tuned.
