$7:50..get's you are wonderful lunch at local chinese in this neck of the 
woods!... merle


  
Mike,

Hell of a bargain.  And I bet you get a Crossword, to boot.

But no comparison to my two kinds of Chicken, and pure steamed rice.  I don't 
have these lunches often, because they are too savory.  If I were in China or 
Taiwan, I'd fall in with the rest and eat this way all the time.  Usually I 
prefer my own cooking: the restaurant uses lots more oil than needed in the 
wok, and more than I do.  It's like the Exxon Valdez.
