New Charlie's Place Restaurant Ltd — Restaurant in Annapolis Royal

I'd say it's the best ....of a bad bunch...I've now tried 3 Chinese restaurants 2 in digby and this one in Annapolis.....this one served the most authentic food out of the 3. But for what you get it is quite expensive...I had the Cantonese chow mein 14.95 plus tax....was tasty and looked a large portion at first....then realized it was a lot of thread noodles and veg and hardly any meat shrimp etc.....the picture showed more than was served....I also tried an egg roll...2 dollars for the one....it was very small and filled with some kind of paste and veg ...no bamboo shoots and fresh ingredients as I am used to.... certainly NOT good value or taste....I am so sad that the quality of the Chinese food is so very low.. and I just can't understand how there can be such a difference in taste meal size and value from other good Chinese restaurants I have been to.....maybe it is what they call Canadian Chinese .. but it certainly isn't good...

Due to Covid, they have only been serving take out. They have an organized system that keeps people from entering the building to pick up orders and they bring the order out to you. Would be a great option for a to go lunch that could be eaten while sitting on the grounds of the fort,...
