Shong Fa Jiang Chinese Restaurant — Restaurant in East Haven

We went back this past Tuesday. The food, although cooked well, was seasoned so poorly. The egg rolls, pork fried rice had very little flavor. And the chicken with pea pods was so salty it was not edible. We had to throw out it was so salty! Its as if the cook knew how to cook the dishes but never tasted what he or she was serving to the public. Strange. We've been going here for years now and have fir the most part seen consistency.

I've eaten at strip mall Chinese places since the 1950s and I've never had...
