Meal 2

Shrimp Chow Mein

Rating: 3(Slightly Edible)

Fortune of the day- The difficulties of life are intended to make us better, not bitter.

      As you can guess, the Shrimp Chow Mein was very similar to the Chicken Chow Mein except for it wasn’t. Yes, it had the same ingredients; celery, onions, cabbage, and shrimp. It too was boiled together. The main difference between the Shrimp Chow Mein and the Chicken Chow Mein, besides the chicken obviously, was the texture. The taste was nonexistent but the texture made up for it, in a bad way. I felt like I was consuming a toiletry product as though it was cooked in KY-Jelly. The cabbage literally dripped from my fork! Let me be frank…it was bland. It was not that it tasted bad; it just didn’t have a taste; no spices, no herbs, nothing. It is possible that I caught the chef on an off day or the food was not as fresh as usual. A lot of factors play into a meal but today they seemed to attack it. Do not fear my friends; the pork fried rice saved the day! For this week’s meal, I’m throwing down a 3 or Slightly Edible.

Meal 1

Chicken Chow Mein              

Rating: 7.5(Succulent-Ballzy)

    

Fortune of the day- All the news you receive will be positive and uplifting.

 This dish took me by surprise. I thought it was going to be heavy, loaded with chicken and noodles. In fact it was light and simple. At first glance it looked like a wet mash of baby food. The texture reminded me of boiled okra. As it turned out it was delicious. The chicken was boiled along with the celery, onions, cabbage, and a certain spice giving it a delightful kick. The taste is very persistent as it seems to have permanently stained my palate. I will tolerate it, only because I enjoyed it so much. I’ll give the Chicken Chow Mein a solid 7.5 overall or as we would say succulent to ballzy!
