take out chinese. yeah, there are days when you just want it. i hit New Fun Ree at 7th & Broadway to get my cheap chinese food fix. i called in my order of veg lo mein, extra spicy ($5.75), made it a complete dinner (+ $2.75) and got wonton soup, 2 deep fried chicken wings, an egg roll and a cheese wonton. it sounds like an abundance of food and it was. the unnaturally bright color of the wonton soup shouldn’t deter you, it’s good. the broth is salted just right and the pork wontons have a snap of ginger. my chicken wings were juicy and perfectly fried, not greasy (it's happened to you before, you’ve opened your to-go bag & found old, inedible, dried-out wings). instead of the traditional egg roll, i asked to substitute a vegetable roll, which they obliged. the veg roll is way better than the egg roll, it’s smaller and the wrapper is thinner and crispier, like a spring roll. the cheese wonton was freshly deep fried and delicious. new fun ree excludes the nasty fake crab meat, and i am glad. the lo mein was spicy like i requested, full of napa cabbage, sweet, snow pea pods, a few julienned carrots and lots of canned button mushrooms. all in all, for $9.35, i am happy with my take away meal. i didn’t have to cook, i didn’t have to clean up much and now i can hop on the sofa for this week’s Top Chef.dine in, take away & delivery, 7 days a week.
