At this writing, we are 3 years into this Covid-19 thing and I am still finding it hard to dine in at certain local restaurants. While in Allen recently, a friend and I happened upon the Bowl and Chopstix restaurant. We tried eating at a Thai place around the corner but it was take-out only. Being from Lakewood district, we were not going to eat in the car. Luckily for us, Bowl & Chopstix said, " Pandemic? We don't need no stinking pandemic." The Orange Chicken was great and my buddy enjoyed his Jalapeño Beef dish. The portions were hearty and the entrées tasty. My only qualm with it was their fried rice wasn't very good. I like it when there is pieces of egg in the rice and it was sadly missing. The atmosphere is authentic with relaxing music playing and the decor was quaint.

But since i didn't, I have just enough leftover for my lunch today. Yes, we...

She said well everyone has I phones it must be your phone. I had to inform her my phone was the new Samsung ultra 24 I paid 1500 for it and iphone pays Samsung for some of their technology. She had tried to take my phone from my hand instead I grabbed the payment machine and well what do you know it went threw. I will not be back 45 bucks for 3 plates no sauce in our bags at all and to be insulted by that girl is not acceptable. I will spend my money elsewhere where they include egg rolls with your meal and foutune cookies. Literally didn't get any of that. At best these fried rices meals 10 each max...
