General Tso's chicken

For lunch today I had leftovers from yesterday's takeout from a new Chinese restaurant that opened up here just a little while ago. The place is Rainbow Garden and it opened up in the Bloom shopping center right up the road from our house. It's quite convenient and at this point quite tasty as well. They're also serving up huge portions. I ordered the steamed dumplings appetizers (8 huge portions), a shrimp egg roll, and a small sweet and sour chicken. That was more than enough for supper yet I had initially thought they'd be tiny portions and had hoped to get a bit of Corey's General Tso's chicken. That's what she ordered along with a spring roll and wonton soup. There was so much food that we ended up doggie-bagging the chicken. And it was still too large of a meal for me the next day. We could have easily split that for lunch as well. So we now have a pretty good restaurant just up the road in case of don't-feel-like-cooking emergencies. Good food and cheap, too. Hopefully it stays this way and doesn't go downhill. At this point (they've just opened remember), they're good, fast, cheap, and courteous. Hopefully that doesn't change cause it's really convenient.
