rossislider Report post Posted April 20, 2015 If you're ever on the east side, Asian Cafe Express on Dobson and Main in Mesa. It's tucked away in a strip mall. Their menu is three inches thick. I kid you not. Not a fancy place. Has a small dining room that will be packed during busy times, but well worth it! Best. Food. Ever. +1 This place isn't much to look at. In fact, it looks like every other crappy strip mall Asian place you've tried. But it tastes nothing like all the the other crappy places. This place is outstanding! They are written up in The New Times "Best Of" every year. Pretty much everything on the menu is under $8. They have a big selection of rice bowl entrees for $4. As Forlorn Hope mentioned they have a huge menu. About a third of the menu is all of the American not really traditional Asian food. The rest is a lot of very traditional Asian things you have never heard of. If you go, you will also notice that the place is very popular with the Asian community, which I think says a lot. Check it out! Also, I'm partial to the Kung Pao Chicken and the Mongolian Beef. I want to try some of the authentic stuff, but the Americanized stuff is so good, I have a hard time trying anything else. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hong Kong, Northern, Szechuan style foods most of us have never heard of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, when i think Chinese I think about commie dog eating SOB's and buffets. I dont like any of those things. Seriously??? The question was obviously rhetorical (though not so obvious to you, I see....). How about finding another thread to hijack, please. Actually, never mind. How about not hijacking threads at all. I find your tag line ironic. S. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

azshtr Report post Posted April 20, 2015 I've been wanting to try Slanted Rice. It's owned by a friends brother and I hear really good things about it. The misses doesn't care for Chinese so we generally don't go that route. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
