I was warned by a friend that Hung Fong was a middle of the road Chinese restaurant. Apparently a lot of people enjoy this place, but my friend was right. It was a notch or two above food court Chinese food.
The way they prepare the food here is very different. I’ve had Kung Pao Chicken in almost every Chinese restaurant I’ve visited and this recipe had vegetables in it I’d never seen in Kung Pao Chicken. Did it make for a better dish? It didn’t make the usual recipe any better, but it wasn’t bad.
My friend ordered a dish that he says he can’t find anywhere else. It was called Hunan Style Rice. I’d never heard of it before either. It looked good and had a variety of stuff mixed in it like shrimp, pork, and vegetables, but can you call this Chinese food?
Although this restaurant was a little out of the ordinary, the food didn’t make me think that I’d make this a regular place to visit. It’s just another restaurant in a big city.
