When they pre-wrap Moo Shoo Pork and you can't find a real pepper in the Kung Pao Chicken, you've got a problem.<BR/><BR/>My favorite East Bay Chinese restaurant is probably 168 Restaurant in El Cerrito (Pacific East Mall) or Jade Villa in Oakland.<BR/><BR/>Diablo Valley seems to be the land of bland.Gary Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11897166491600280320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150649422744296369.post-41946877230577270432007-08-20T21:46:00.000-07:002007-08-20T21:46:00.000-07:00My taste in food does not suck.

Except for the horrific service one time (stupid waitress didn't bother asking if we wanted change; she just assumed the difference was her tip), I think the food at Mimi's is pretty good. However, I think Nama Sushi is better than the one next door to the new place, although this one has more lunch options. We'll lose Wendys and Quiznos (for anyone willing to walk that far for food; I'd be starving by then), there is a new Vietnamese place opening up just a moment's walk from Fry's (the pizza place totally died).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150649422744296369.post-61436836690409848012007-08-20T14:28:00.000-07:002007-08-20T14:28:00.000-07:00Mimi's Sucks...

I like them a lot, even with the onions.<BR/><BR/>Don't forget that there are also all the Todos Santos and in between places within just a couple of blocks (certainly within walking distance).<BR/><BR/>People at the store for an event have a lot of choices, they could even resort to the "Mickey Dees" and "Burger Thing" in the shopping center.JoeDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04768616880852081399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150649422744296369.post-21991124483186889152007-08-19T20:59:00.000-07:002007-08-19T20:59:00.000-07:00Hmmm, there was a Chinese restaurant in that strip...Hmmm, there was a Chinese restaurant in that strip where I had one of my few negative dining experiences. I don't know for sure if it was Shan Shan Low or not. <BR/><BR/>It was a few years ago now, so maybe it was a different place.Fulminatahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14332824290977548527noreply@blogger.com
