The Best Chinese Restaurants in Los Angeles | Eater LA

"Tigawok’s Chinese fast food rivals dishes found in the San Gabriel Valley and Panda Express at more affordable prices. The food is prepared by automated robots capable of stir-frying, stewing, boiling, and simmering with heat control up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit. These machines can also add up to 16 types of seasoning per dish and test the temperature before serving. Afterward, they wash and sanitize the equipment in under 30 seconds, helping to reduce the cost of labor. Entrees cost around $4 each, with a wide variety that changes regularly. The menu includes seasonal options alongside staples like mapo tofu, pork belly with peppers, orange chicken, Hunan spicy beef, chicken with Thai basil, and kung pao chicken." - Kristie Hang
