Manalapan Kosher Chinese Express Owner Buying Non-Kosher Chicken

[Dan]

Never been to KRM, NKS, or this Cinese establishment but I've yet to find a portion of Sesame Chicken for less than 14.99 which is almost 100% more than this place. 1/4lb and 75% sounds made up. I'm in the food business, most portions are about 1/2lb-3/4lb (2-3 cutlets) and like 50% batter.

There's no way this place gives 2-3 cutlets in a sesame chicken. If it's anything like NKS, it's 1 at most and has a whole lot of delicious breading.

Obviously, a place giving 1 cutlet doesn't have to charge what a place doing 3 cutlets is charging.

My take on it, based on lack of information, and the wording of the ok statement, he didn't serve non kosher but there is a chance he planned on it in the future

Find 1 kosher place in the entire U.S. that has a portion of Sesame Chicken for $7.99 then I'll agree with this.

NKS is Sesame Chicken, an Egg Roll, and fried rice for $10. And free delivery to EWR.

Kosher Wok Boston lunch special is $9.95 for an entree, fantastic soup, and fried rice.

I've never been to this place and for all I know, they were serving chazer. Time will tell.
But all of these boich svaros and flimsy accusations are too much for me.

Ungers CLE donuts cost a $1.50 or $2 and are humongous, taste delicious, and have plenty of filling.
Donuts in NYC can cost $5, $8, or even $10 and can be stingy with filling and taste blah.

Time to investigate?

I'm sold. Still have a lot of questions though.

You're just overestimating the raw material being used by these places.

[Dan]

BREAKING: All kosher food in Argentina, Brazil, South Africa, and Thailand has been banned for being too cheap!

[coffeebean]

You're just overestimating the raw material being used by these places.

I changed my mind set on that part, now how you explain a restaurant owner of a kosher restaurant buying 200lb of non kosher raw material, and if there is a valid reason, why can't the owner just state it?

[coffeebean]

I'm in no means a Cancel Culture kinda guy I'm on Ben Shapiros side, but not when there's evidence messing with my kashrus.

if it tastes really good I jokingly say it doesn't taste kosher. Maybe there actually is a correlation between food tasting really good and not being kosher.

Every place in Brooklyn until recently maybe (I haven't been in a couple of years)?

[Something Fishy]

Oh and BTW mentioning Ungar's donuts without serving them to the listeners or readers is a serious shayla of lo sachsom.

This is fair, but supposedly he also had a treif restaurant? If that's not the case, obviously it makes things much worse.

[coffeebean]

I remember those Ungar doughnuts back when I was in CKT they had a special room for Ungars delivery. Those were some fire doughnuts.

[coffeebean]

Supposedly he also had a treif restaurant

Never heard that.
