Naturally I ordered the pork chops. They are thin-cut and lightly breaded in what I assume is corn starch or flour and then wok fried. They are also mixed with a combination of garlic, jalapenos, and peppers. The resulting taste is amazing as they all mix together while the hot oil still barely covering the fried pork chop enhances the flavor. The portion is also large so that results in leftovers for late-night snacking. Interestingly enough when I eat the leftovers I generally do not heat them up. The medley of peppers and garlic seem to get stronger as it ages and the breaded pork chops are still tasty cold.
I would definitely recommend New Peking for the person that wants to try some Chinese that is not the usual popular Cantonese style. The addition of the spices and jalapenos give this food an extra kick that may surprise those used to the more traditionally thought of Chinese food. Clear 5 of 5 rating for the pork chops meal.

Interesting. That almost reminds me of salt & pepper shrimp, only made with pork chops. Sounds good.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you normally blog about places in MI?
That is a winning picture. I've never heard you talk about New Peking, maybe you've said something about a place in Garden City, but whatever.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lunch portion? Wow. It makes sense, though, based on your last paragraph. Not a place where you're gonna get the traditional chinese food lunch special - entree w/ rice, choice of soup, etc.
"Aged leftovers" - that sounds like a good indicator of the skill with which a dish is made. There are a number of foods I don't prefer to warm up as leftovers, but chinese food usually isn't one of them. I must not be getting enough chinese food from places that age their leftovers well.
@optimista - normally dont blog places in MI cause i try to cook when at home or i get a not-too-exciting pizza. i know more places to eat at in RI than in MI too
ReplyDelete@chris - not a lunch portion; it is off of the regular menu. they do have the traditional lunch combos, but i never get them. actually i had their fried rice before and it was not that good...
