That sounds like what I remember about China One.  It also explains why
their parking lot is now empty so much of the time and the place has 
that sort
of "we're about to fold" look.  Too bad; I remember the staff as remarkably
friendly.

I was not impressed with the Chinese place at Woodcroft, but I used to 
go there 'cause
it was cheap and I was/am lazy.  Then I received a long black hair in my 
white rice ... haven't
been back since.  I've worked in enough restaurants to know that these 
things happen,
but that doesn't make it any less disgusting when it does.

Any comments on the Japanese place in Woodcroft, Yamazushi?
It seems kinda' pricey, but they've stayed in business a really long 
time ...
