I saw a Werewolf with a chinese menu in his hand
Walking thru the streets of Soho in the rain
he was looking for a place called Lee Ho Fook's
gonna get himself a big dish of beef chow mein.

(Just added this song...at least I have the 1st verse down.)

Two good buffets... one behind Arbys/LongJohns/TackyBell

another between Meadows and Wye intersections behind Wendy's on old Rt 220 in Duncansville. $5.50 all you can eat & drink lunch.

If you're near the Altoona campus, there's a place called Great China, some of my favorite chineese in Toon Town.

The one out in the Giant Eagle plaza in altoona always has crab legs, not just sometimes. And everything else is good too. But damn, all the crab legs you can stuff down your neck for $10 is a pretty sweet deal.

The food served at the Dragon Buffet is quite capital.

Hong Kong Buffet. I have a friend who married a Chinese girl last year (she moved here from the People's Republic), and she endorses the place. Plus along with the good Chinese grub, you can also load up on snow crab legs, peel-and-eat shrimp and salmon, all included in the buffet price.

The best chinese food place ate at was The Mongolian Grill in state college, before it shut down. Their hot and spicy soup was to die for ...

Actually this was just a test to see where everyones head is at.

I posted to find a set up person to look at a few of my guitars and no responses after over 30 views.

I actually lost faith in the Tech Sector after no replies.... So I thought I would post a totally unrelated subject to see responses.

Just as I suspected. Chineese Food is More Interesting than Technical Information.

Well that's this area for ya.

I very much agree with jim on this one. The hong kong is the best damn chineese place in altoona. I used to eat there on a daily basis when i went to Computer Learning Network. Cheap, yet awesome food.

I guess Techies could be more the Pizza or McDs type. I just don't know. Could this get any stranger?

I can't believe people eat in Chinese restaurants. Besides the Chinese, of course. Make the stuff at home. At least you'll know it didn't come out of Giant Eagle's dumpster.

This is unbelievable!!

There actually is a Chinese guy that works as a cook at the Hong Kong Buffet, and he does custom guitar work on the side.

Stop in and ask for Wong Dong.




LOL Just Kidding...sorry.
