New King Yen Too Chinese

My family loves Chinese food. We used to go very often to that Chinese restaurant in Granby center as it’s the closest. Having been 5 times too many (to keep giving them chances to not suck) we are now done with Granby and were now more than ready to at least try another nearby option. This place in Southwick was the complete opposite of my last visit to that other place just south of the state border. As we waited for our order, a local guy was also waiting and he only raved about this place. At New King Yen Too you find no frills, just order, pay, pickup your takeout, and go. Friendly enough guy taking the order and the food was exactly what we were hoping for! Delicious, fresh, fantastic portion size and great price. We came in for lunch but for sure this was only the first time of many many times we will go there from now on. I find no fault here at all. Just great value, delicious, not greasy or pretentious Chinese food. Picture of the lunch portion chicken curry. I would have taken pics of the other things we ordered but we ate it all, including the delicious soups that came with the lunch combos! 😂

Tasty option for Chinese food. Check it out!

Every now and then I have a dining experience that moves me beyond words. I placed a a pickup order with New King Yen Too earlier this month. I arrived to retrieve my food and was so enraptured by the atmosphere of the restaurant that I asked, “Would it be permissible if I ate here?” I was granted this honor and allowed to choose my own table. Typically, a meal like this might last ten to fifteen minutes, but on this day I sat and savored my meal for hours, ordering additional food. Another culture’s story gradually unfolded with each new exotic dish that was prepared. As the night wore on and the smell of rare spices filled the air, I questioned this reality, finally giving in just as one would whilst riding a wild horse. Euphoria rose and receded in waves until my mortal attachments began to fall away. One singular thing remained: my love for Lorraine. That morning I watched the sun rise. Sitting on the roof of my car, the rays of a new day carried with them an assurance I could not ignore and I knew, without a doubt, I was a changed man. Thank you.

Ordered, spoke to somebody on the phone about my order, showed up and they acted like I’d never placed the order. Super confusing. I triple checked that I called the correct location and the correct phone number. They acted like we’d never spoken with them but I recognized the voice of the person behind the counter and again, I triple checked the number.

What happened? This used to be a nice place. Now, it's the worst place that I have ever been to. The food is ridiculously disgusting!!!! They only do take out. I went on a Friday night and the place was empty. Now I know why. NEVER again!!!
