Sweet & Sour chicken / Pork fried Rice
Well folks as you know I am a not what someone would call a Chinese food conoisseur, but what i like , i really like. I was at a first communion that day , when we went to Su Chang's for dinner in Peabody after the mass. Not a restaurant i had ever established nor a town i frequent too often. But i will say this, the next time i am in the Peabody area i already know where i will be eating dinner ... dramatic pause...Su Changs !!
Now i confess i did not do justice to getting pictures of all of our dishes because we ordered a ton of food, but when i have above was exquisite. Let me start with the most basic of chinese food appetizers, the pu pu platter. This platter was loaded , the ocean must be short a few shrimps after out meal because they gave us plenty. The spare ribs were very flavorful and quite tender meat, and there was an endless supply of chicken wings and fingers.
I am writing this section separate because i want to give it the full weight it deserves. These were THE BEST crab rangoons i have EVER eaten. My God they were sublime. Cooked perfectly, loaded with crab meat, not too much cream cheese filling, but just the right amount. I could have eaten more if less people were watching. Just thinking about them is making me hungry.
We had this amazing dish of moo shu shrimp, it was my first time enjoying entree. It reminded me of a chinese burrito, they came with wraps, that you load up with the noodles and shrimp. I would definetly recommend them to anyone and i can't wait to try them again.
The peking ravioli's were excellent, and cooked nicely. The meat stuffing was very flavorful and spicy. The sweet and sour chicken was great, not too much sauce. Plenty of pineapple to go along with, and they are a perfect accompaniment with the chicken. The shrimp fried rice was nice but what surprised me the most was how many shrimps they gave in an order.
As a disclaimer, i don't like egg rolls BUT my mom had 1 and she seemed to enjoy it very much. If you want more details i will bring her in as guest commentator.
The staff at Su changs were terrific and very attentive to our needs. I swear my water glass was refilled every time i took a sip. Parking is plentiful as well and the restaurant has a lovely ambiance.
I highly recommend Su Changs and i look forward to my return.
Thats all , i hope you have a great night and great meal.
