So I was walking around last night looking for a place to eat. And since I needed to buy tape at the store afterwards, I wanted to eat somewhere close by. So that's why I didn't go to my usual place, where the lady who works there, now knows that I have a Suntory beer with every meal. Anyhow.
I was trying to look for this place that my friend recommended, but it was raining and there was road construction, so I conducted a quasi-search and couldn't find the place. (Note to self: I need a really detailed street map of SH in English and a color metro map.) I thought about surrendering to McDonald's, b/c there's one attached to the store, and b/c in all honesty, their pineapple and taro pies (like the cherry and apple pies in the US) are pretty tasty. But I was on the other side of the street, and would've been a pain-in-the-ass to get to across the street. This was also where I had witnessed the scooter dude get flattened just days earlier. So yeah, fck that I ain't jaywalkin.
I had two options; go to a place called Babela's Kitchen that looked like it served ham and corn pizza or the Bruce Lee restaurant. I was in the mood for some fried chicken so I entered the dragon. har har. For some reason, I thought Bruce Lee was slangin' fried chicken. Don't ask me why, it's probably b/c I can't read Chinese.
No fried chicken, but some boring looking Chinese food, as evidenced by the picture above. That meal was 22 rmb and sucked. Fish was kinda bland. Rice was soggy. Boiled cabbage was good though. I could've gotten a better meal at the little place by my dorm, and I could get beer too!
Dammit Bruce, I thought you sold fried chicken!

the signage looks a lot like KFC. i can see where you were misled.
ReplyDeleteYeah after vowing never to go back there, I went back 2 fridays ago and ordered the "savory beef and rice" meal. Looked really good on the menu, but such a disappointment. I really don't think they should have Bruce Lee as their mascot if their food is gonna suck this bad.
