New Paradise Restaurant

"What a piece of Junk..."

"She'll make Chow Fun in the speed of light. She may not look like much, but she's got Duck where it's Roasted, kid. I've eaten a lot of special Monosodium Glutamate myself. But, we're a little hungry, so if you'll hurry and order we'll get it out here..."

A New Hope?

This shanty might had been New back in 1977 but time has been harsh on this discreet old "Junk". Squeezed between a NAPA Auto Parts store and a cruddy garage... This is hardly the Paradise one would envisioned. But never judge a wok by it's flat bottom.

Many a roundeyes would be scared shitless to eat anything from a raggedy looking Chino joint across from the CDC. But I say hellz no and go! CDC to me... Stands for Cantonese Delicious Chicken. This Chinese fwied ghetto bird had super crispy thin skin, tender bweasts and plump rump meat. Fa-friggin-nomenal. "Eat or eat not... there is only fry"

Roast Duck was not offered on the menu but if you don't ask, you will never know... We asked, we received. Nothing foul about it, a succulent duck it was... Crispy with juicy morsels of meat. "That chicken is our last hope... No, there is another. Duck."

Chow Fun was definitely a contender... Just the right amount of gweeze, rice noodles, color, onions, bean sprouts, coulda used a little more man meat but it was a hefty portion, nonetheless. "Much to eat, you still have."

Pea Shoots piled high and plenty... Young, tender, saucy and green, just like my wimmen. A veggie dish pricier than fwied chicken... "How you get so big, eating food of this kind?"

Congee with 1000 yr old egg and prok was velvety smooth but needed a little bit more seasoning and better pieces of pork. But overall not too shabby. "Empty is Pouch. Eat what you have ordered. Stuff you it can."

Even though, this place looks like a dump... With some remastering, I can see many more sequels in their future... Such as "The Emperor Stirfrys Back" and "Return of the Jellyfish".

May the Pouch be with you.

Burp.
