That's not really saying much. Beansprout seems to be the same as all those other Chinese chain restaurants.

This thread is ultimately going to end in a debate amongst which Chinese place is the best.

I'm going with Bear Grylls driving in the snow with some vinegar barbecue sauce.

If you are expecting generic brown sauce like at other area chinese resturants, then yes.

pearl and beansprout are pretty much the same, although i like the beansprout guy, he's really nice

although the hanging-down microphone at pearl is pretty funny, and they have TV and a koi pond

so it's kind of a draw

Chinese food in the south sucks period. On that note Neo-China or Red Dragon are my picks for best of the crap.

DALAT SON.

They've won a lot of awards and their shit is top notch.


Shanghai Express always makes my shit right, but I know the owner so I think he makes my shit extra special y0. (Adds a little cum to it)
