Hunan Chinese Express

Great food! Many Chinese take out spots in St. Louis are greasy but not this place. Very good quality and speedy delivery.

This has been a favorite little chinese take out place of mine over the years. It is a dive, and I feel safe in assuming that there are not many Mitt Romney supporters in the neighborhood.
I used to patronize a few bars in the area that did not have kitchens or worse they had the frozen tombstone pizza for food choices (don’t judge, we have all done things we are not proud of in our youth!). Sometimes I would go to the bars to avoid «airport traffic» (Yeah that’s the ticket) and just stay there and get hungry, and so our Hero Hunan Chinese Express enters the picture. For more than 20 years they have provided consistently awesome food. The veggies are fresh and it is not too greasy relatively speaking.
Tonight I had a craving for St. Paul Sandwiches and theirs is very respectable. I ordered a chicken St. Paul. It was served piping hot, with white bread, dill pickles and mayo. Delicious!
They have a crazy soda selection. Many foreign offerings as well. Crazy soda selection. For some of the reasons outlined above, I er… seldom order drinks here. But they do have a nice selection.
Finally, these crazy Chinese people have come up with a plot to destabilize the federal government of the United States. They offer buffalo chicken Rangoon. These are simply amazing! They have hot sauce and a little chicken wrapped in a wonton and fried. When you dip them in the duck sauce, it is an incredible taste experience. Do not pass these up.
I also wanted to say that these people could not be nicer. They are fast and efficient as well.

Rice really good and wings where excellent as well.

My order was for plain fried rice, plain. I wanted it plain. PLAIN as in ONLY RICE. My order contained egg and veggies. I actually said rice only. Rice only, nothing in it. No vegetables. I did not know until I was home that it had everything in it.
But 2 stars because even if the order was wrong, it was tasty, so I’ll give them another chance.
Service was good.
