"The first surprise was the extensive menu. While it featured the usual Chinese American fare, we also found Thai, Vietnamese dishes, and a full sushi bar. How can one place offer such a wide variety while keeping the ingredients fresh?
We played it safe and ordered Chicken Pad Thai, Egg Drop Soup, and Udon. To our astonishment, the food was prepared quickly, tasted great, and the ingredients were incredibly fresh. Rice noodles can be difficult to get right, as they tend to dry out, but these were soft and elastic—quite impressive given the lack of customers.
After some contemplation, we theorized that this restaurant might be functioning as a ghost kitchen for several food delivery apps. Every few minutes, a car would pull into the otherwise empty parking lot, quickly come in to grab a bag, and leave right after. This likely explains the vast menu selection, the fast service, and how they manage to keep such high-quality, fresh ingredients despite having few dine-in patrons.
In summary, the food was surprisingly good, with fresh ingredients, despite the unassuming appearance. It appears to be a ghost kitchen for Asian restaurants available on delivery apps like UberEats in the Norwalk and Wilton area. If you have the chance, consider visiting in person!"
