When I was a child, we had a favorite Chinese restaurant called Magic Wok. I had many fond memories at Magic Wok and proudly called it my favorite restaurant in Northern Virginia. There was nothing better. Then, we moved out of Magic Wok’s 10 mile delivery range. We tried to make the pilgrimage from time to time but with traffic and whatnot we just ended up losing touch.
Ever since those days, I’ve been trying to find a takeout Chinese restaurant that would compare and all to no avail.
Then, one day, I was out with a walk with my daughter and just happened to see someone walk into Chans Kitchen and come out with Chinese food. I figured I’d give it a shot.
Friends, I think I may have found my new favorite Chinese restaurant. Magic who? Haha. Just kidding.
We ordered quite a bit of food and when my wife asked how long it would take, they said, “Uh, probably about 5 minutes.” That’s how you know.
Chans doesn’t have a dining area, they just do takeout and they’re a legitimate hole in the wall. Like the kind of shopping center you’d be worried about catching some illness not seen since the Middle Ages.
But let me tell you, we didn’t get sick and the food was delicious. The wonton soup was the best I’ve ever had, and I don’t say that lightly. The prices are reasonable, the service was prompt and friendly, and there was plenty of food provided.
All in all, we’ll definitely be coming back for many more great future memories.
Now enjoy some very unflattering pictures of our food.
