Denver Day Trip | Chinese Food Hits & Misses 🥢🎯

🍖 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 New Canton BBQ Inc. – A Cantonese Gem! This spot is flavor-packed and full of heart! 💖 Duck Wonton Noodle Soup: Roasted duck was fragrant, wontons were homemade with bouncy pork and shrimp — big and satisfying! The broth was naturally sweet, not MSG-heavy. BBQ Combo Platter: Roast duck, crispy pork, and braised intestine — all incredibly authentic! The pork skin was crackling crisp, the intestine savory and rich. Marinated Duck Wings: Just $1 each — tender and tasty! Many customers order whole roast ducks for only $28 — such a steal! 🦆 📍 Located next to HMart. Tiny, no-frills setting. Google reviews (4.2) mostly complain about the vibe or service, but everyone agrees: the taste is TOP-NOTCH! During the pandemic, takeout ruled — and flavor wins! 🏆 🍜 🌟🌟🌟 Noodle Express Inc. – Overhyped Sichuan? Rated 4.8 on Google — but honestly, just okay. We ordered: Dan Dan Noodles: Fragrant but not spicy 🌶️ Twice-Cooked Pork: Tasty, mildly spicy (still not enough) Yu Xiang Shredded Pork: Labeled spicy but tasted mostly sweet 🍯 Prices were on the higher side. Not recommended if you're craving real heat or bold Sichuan flavors. 🍧 🌟 Meet Fresh – Big Disappointment! 👎 The Signature Taro Ball with Grass Jelly was a letdown: Almost $10 for a tiny portion — half the size you’d get in California for $8 One tiny scoop of taro paste, undersized pearls Only the taro balls were decent, but still scarce Not worth it — skip! 🏙️ Quick Denver Stops: Larimer Square: A short, pretty street — quiet on a weekday. Cat Alley: I circled around but couldn’t find the famous cat sculptures 🐱❌ Big Blue Bear at Convention Center: Cute for a quick photo 📸🐻💙 Next time — aiming for Red Rocks Amphitheatre & nearby parks! 🏞️🎵 #DenverEats #ChineseFood #CantoneseBBQ #SichuanFood #DenverTravel #FoodReview
