New Station...

For a long time this was my favorite Chinese food place, especially after a good doin' the grown up session. And for that reason, I kept it a secret. For those who were fortunate enough to find themselves on the opposite side of the table, noshing away with me, they were sworn to shut the fuck up. However, my last visit was so shocking that it left my mouth open long enough for flies to lay their larvae inside of it.



I normally order combo plates for lunch, keeping the traditional Chinese fare for dinner. It's quick and I don't have to sit amongst Sacramento's version of the Chronicles of Riddick; state workers. State workers haunt this place. Since I've eaten here several times, I knew the portions and the flavor wouldn't fail me. I also knew the $5.75 wouldn't fail me. But, when they set down the plate before our eyes, my bottom lip poked out and began to quiver. What I had in front of me was a very generous portion of rice and noodles and five...count them...five little golden laquered nuggets of pork. One dollar per nugget. That seems to be the message they're sending here.



Now, Asian Garden Two is my favorite spot and I'll be sure to let everyone know about New Station.
