Mei Garden II

2008-03-08T03:37:00.000-08:00

Mei Garden TWO! I haven't been to mei garden ONE... This place has a GREAT combo plate:
Substitutions are OK with a slight additional charge.

$9.50 Combination Plate: Includes Soup of the Day, Egg Roll, Choice of Chow Mein and Fried Rice. Select one main dish from the regular menu.

In my opinion, this has been enough for two people. On more hungry evenings I like to get a combo and a couple other things. All in all, a great and satisfying meal.
