You Ain't Gotta Go Home...

Valentine's day 2002. My girlfriend and I both had to work late, but we still wanted to do something for Valentine's day. After very little discussion, we settled on the Dragon House by the Tyler Mall in Riverside. We got there kinda late, I think around 9:30 pm. I asked if it was too late to eat, but with much enthusiasm, they said they would gladly accommodate us. We sat down and ordered. As soon as the waiter brought out an entree, another would follow right behind them to pick up our plates and scoop it's contents into to-go boxes without saying a word. If you know me by now based on previous reviews, you know what happened next. My heart started beating fast, I got physically hot, started to sweat. I was like "Yo...What are you doing? We just got that!" We were told they were closing soon and that we had to hurry up. "Why did y'all seat us then?!" I exclaimed. They just smiled while handing us our to-go bags. Surprisingly, my girlfriend at the time didn't trip as she was notorious for not taking any shit from anybody. We took our food and eventually laughed about it all the way home. Whatever, Dragon House. I never forgot that. I never will.

Upon first bite, these taste just like Tabasco sauce without the heat. Sweet, smoky, with equally subtle flavors of sour vinegar with a barely noticeable bitter finish. I don't taste any poultry flavors at all. They may be there, but the Tabasco-like flavor overwhelms my tastebuds so much that I may not be able to taste it. My expectations weren't that high, but these are pretty  good. 3 outta 5 on the chip mack scale.
