Had a standard sesame chicken dish recently from a local place in Lakewood. The fried rice was practically tasteless and the chicken was ok. It had a slight interesting smell to it like they put in too much of an ingredient into their sauce.

Glatt kosher family in boro park still has my vote.
White pepper is often the culprit when it comes to a bad taste in Chinese food fwiw. So easy to use too much.

There is no good Chinese in Lakewood. There are some places that sell chicken in sauce that can be decently tasting but should not be confused with Chinese.
For good Chinese, you would have to go to Manalapan

Even the good ones have gone downhill.

NKS, Jade, and Kosher Wok are all far from their peak. :(
I don't even bother with NKS anymore.

Had good experiences with Wok Tov recently. Sesame chicken was amazing. Wasn’t too thrilled with Bambu in North Miami. Dumplings were horrible. Everything else we ordered was ok. Nothing stood out

“Bad” Chinese is better than no Chinese. Anywho, this year xMas dev was Shabbos so we got a break of sorts.

The names have gotten creative though.

"Kim ess doo" is probably my favorite name of any restaurant

(disclosure, i dont know how the food tastes though)

I’d prefer (and probably most here would prefer) unimaginative name to good food than vice versa :P

You're asking why someone who pronounces it "Kim" and "Doo" doesn't spell it differently in English??
