EVERGREEN RESTAURANT
I met a friend for lunch today at Evergreen. I have an on-again-off-again feeling about this place. Sometimes it hits the spot and other times it just seems like a bad version of American Chinese food.

Today I ordered the spicy hunan veggies and tofu, the lunch special No. L44, which comes with white rice, choice of soup, spring roll, and hot tea. All for the low low price of $6.49. My friend had the hunan beef, same dish with veggies except substitute beef for tofu.
Today was one of those so-so days. I'm pretty sure the soup was just tap water with bits of minced green salad floating on top with a grey wonton on the bottom. As my friend said, "it wasn't even warm!". The salad was a little bowl of wilted iceberg lettuce.

Using a little self/portion control, we both left with containers for later. Neither one of us could stomach the soup, I saved my spring roll and both of us had about half of the rice and entree left over. I'll probably go again (not any time soon though) since the place is just down the street from where I work but it's not like I'm having a serious hankering, an unrelenting need, for one of their dishes. There's definitely a trade off between quantity versus quality and this meal fell into the quantity camp.
