I usually shun factory visits like the one above for obvious reasons...but the lunch location was in the factory proper...!
Meet Golden Palace Restaurant, folks.
Different kind of appetizers;oily peanuts and sweetened crunchy sesame balls.
Complimentary chinese spirits...at 56% it was a lethal affair. A sip brought a burning sensation. A bottle of this neat would burn the intestines for sure! I wonder how the chinese can take it straight from the bottle!
Seasonable Vegetable with Vinegar Dressing
This could pass off as pickled vegetables...still yummy.
Sliced Beef
In all dryness, these are delish.
Sweet and sour soup..nothing spectacular though I wish there was more kick.
Fried Rice
Stir fried veggies
Sweet and Sour Pork
Actually liked this lean version!
This time with fish..! A nice proportion of dough and meat.
Mapo Tofu
Silky smooth tofu meets spicy sauce..not the sort that would awaken the senses but just right with rice.
Steamed Dumplings
Tragic dumplings of all time.
Braised Tenderloin with Green Pepper
Tasty stirfry!
Spicy Diced Chicken with Chestnut
By this time, the overload of meat was getting to me and everything started tasting the same.
Fried Mandarin Fish
Don't know how they do it but they do it so fine! Fried to such crispness...the fish meat is non-existent when I bit into the floury dish.
Chive omelette
I could get a guppy to swim in all that oil!
Chive buns which was yet another letdown.
The horrifying episode of chinese snacks did not stop there.
Corn Pan cake had to be the last straw - bland beyond comprehension. Maple syrup could have saved the day.
Not the bestest meal...but passable for a restaurant within a tourist trap near Great Wall.
