But actually good.

Since most Chinese places carry lunch special prices from opening (usually 11am) to mid afternoon (usually 3 or sometimes 4pm), those prices vary anywhere between $5-$7 and OP posted at 7.13pm eastern time, it's a good bet to assume that he's on the west coast somewhereabouts.
Since that little cup of sauce is plastic and the container is metal, he's likely in California since the whole state has banned styrofoam.

Am I right, OP?

Can anyone explain to me what the "chicken" is in American Chinese food? For example, all general tso chicken from take out places is so fucking strange. It's not bad and I eat the fuck out of it but sometimes while eating it I stop and think "what the fuck is this chicken?" I know you guys know what I'm talking about. Anyone have the answer?
