I quit eating Chinese when I saw ducks hanging on the dumpster behind one of our favorite restaurants at Fee Fee and Olive.   Can’t purge that outta my noggin.  😂

They all hang their ducks 🦆 trust me 😉

If you want the best Chinese food in STL go to Corner 17 in the Loop down on Delmar. They cater to the Wash U students. They are northern Chinese therefore eat noodles more than rice. They make fresh noodles right in front of you. Very Good!!

I've never been a big fan of Chinese food but my wife is....  So that's how I ended up eating it fairly often.  I love Kung Pao Shrimp at PF Changs but I don't like the insulin shot I need after eating it.😆

I’m not sure I’ve ever eaten at PF Changs, but I’ve had a lot of overly sweet ‘Chinese’ food. I like the first few bites but it gets to be too much pretty quickly. 
 

There’s a Japanese restaurant nearby that gets things right. Their ‘hibachi shrimp’ has just a little sweet, not sticky sweet. I get their brown rice which is not oily/greasy. Perfectly cooked veggies too and the shrimp are always just right.

I asked the waitress to leave out the green peppers the second time there, now I’m forever ’No green pepper guy’ has 😀

Interesting, I hate green peppers too. I always ask them to leave out green or any color peppers…my replacement is usually green onions.

They hang them ducks, by the dumpster, to catch the bigger rats, for their beef dishes.

Something else about the Japanese restaurant I mentioned: they’ve got this salad dressing that makes me want to lick the bowl. Fairly thin and creamy, with a big dose of fresh ginger and a little vinegar bite. Dang!

I may need to get over there this week.

Oishi NW corner of Shawnee Mission Pkwy and Quivira, next to Westlake. They do a ton of sushi there too. 

I work from home on Fridays and might go there this Friday.
