f you ever find yourself in a place where giraffes play the accordion while the floor is made entirely of chocolate pudding, then congratulations, youâve discovered Yummy Yummy. Itâs less of a place and more of an emotional rollercoaster powered by disco penguins.
First, the air smells like burnt toast and freshly squeezed confusion. The chairs? They're just empty tuna cans stacked on top of each other, each with a small sticker that says, âSit here if you dare.â And, I did dare. It was a mistake. The can collapsed and I fell into a vat of invisible soup, which, honestly, I canât even describe. It was like eating a memory of a fruit salad from 1993.
The menu, you ask? The menu is a book. A very long book. Full of things like âUnicorn Juiceâ (which is just regular juice, but donât tell them that), and âFlying Picklesâ (I didnât order that. It just arrived. You donât question it). At one point, a spaghetti noodle tried to sell me a watch. I told it I didnât need one, and it walked away sadly, muttering about the decline of spaghetti society.
Staff? Oh, donât even get me started. At first, I thought the waiter was a normal person. Nope. He was a sentient paperclip that kept asking me what kind of socks I was wearing. And no matter what I answered, he would nod approvingly, hand me a lemon, and say, âThatâs what I like to hear.â
The ambiance is somehow both electric and soggy. The lighting comes from candles that are also hot dogs. The floor is sticky, but not in a gross wayâmore like itâs made of sticky notes covered in the last three seasons of Friends and a mild existential crisis.
In summary: Yummy Yummy isnât just a place. Itâs an abstract journey through the time-space continuum, where logic and reality go to take a nap. Would I return? Absolutely. But only if I can get a ride from a flamingo that knows how to DJ.
10/10 â Highly recommend, but maybe bring a rubber chicken for protection....
   Read moreHi been coming here for years used to be tasty but....not anymore the orange chicken that some people call general gaos used to be so good stingy on the chicken but the inside was almost black texture chewy yuck! The two chicken skewers were dry like they were there too long! The worst is the egg foo Yong good portion but it had hard white things inside! It wasn't onions that would've been okay! The quality has gone down! People keep talking about how cheap the food costs true but their using cheap low quality food! No thanks! I rather spend more money from J.P. kitchen which by the way...
   Read moreMost of the food is mid, but the price is some of the cheapest you'll find in Boston. I always go when I'm in the area, though I'd never go out of my way to go to the area. I recommend the General Gao Chicken with fried rice or white rice (you can ask for white rice even though it's not visible). It is by far their best main. If you get a three item combo, you get more of each item. The two item combo is enough food for me, but if you want three, I recommend the fried dough as...
