This place is awesome

Food is generous in portion, wonderful in taste and very reasonable in price.

This restaurant is high on the decor scale, but to be honest, that means little to me. What does strike me is the FAST service, most staff are HUSTLING!

We almost always order the following (careful these dishes are on the spicy side but there is also non spicy fare)
- green beans (sounds boring, but very crunchy and good for you!)
- chili chicken
- mixed vegetable rice (also sounds boring but very tasty!!!)
- mixed pakora (shrimp and beef, lots of both, have no idea how it does not fall apart???)

Have also had Manchurian noodles, spicy and red, with chicken. YUMM!!!!

Holy cow, they went ABOVE and BEYOND

Went to a Marlies game with my kids. Got a pretzel from one of the vending areas and it was bone cold, even though it was rotating in one of those heated areas.
Sent an email to Ricoh and within the next day, got an email back asking me if and when I was coming back.
Well, I did go back to see another game (Man, the Marlies got blown out 6-3 and 7-2 to the Grand Rapids Griffins) anyway, with kids and friends and was treated to free food for the whole group PLUS beer. HOLY SMOKES! Thanks a ton for that!

Take it or leave it???

I ordered a dish that I cannot remember, but I will say on it was grilled vegetables (green and red peppers to be exact). Perhaps how much it was grilled is subjective, but there was more black on it than I was hoping for. Well, did the manager treat me like I was some sort of culinary dunce...'Some cooks make it this way...' Come on, it's not like I ate the whole dish except this one piece of charred nouritture. Never again people.

Questionable sales practice

After a gruelling 4 hours of back and forth, finally got the 2010 NHL edition Honda Odyssey.

Aside from the fact that to get the colour we wanted (which they made us pay $100 dollars more for delivery) they DROVE it from who knows where and put over 80 km before we even sat in the darn thing...'Oh, that's just the way it is...' Cmon, really? AND
Aside from the fact that they forgot the NHL logo on the car (not a bad move in retrospect) and the NHL video (which they wanted US to come to the dealership to pick up, what, TOO cheap to mail? Not like we LEFT it there...) AND
Aside from the fact that they kept nickel and diming me on the trade in (price agreed to kept going down and down)
I would recommend this dealership (NOT!!!)
