"...but the most important rule of all, no mater how much he cries, no mater how much he begs, never, never feed him after midnight." - Gremlins
Wing Lee on Clement Ave & 6th has to be my go-to for "cheap Chinese" food when I'm in the Inner Richmond District of San Francisco. Yet, every time I'm here I can't help thinking Gremlins and Mr. Wing in that curio shop and that after-midnight rule. I guess Mr. Wing sure influenced the way I eat?
Okay, Wing Lee has nothing to do with Gizmo or mystery boxes, but it does have old Chinese ladies and fresh, cheap Chinese food! Get the combo! For me, it's all about timing so I'm usually here before the lunch crowd arrives. And no, I don't speak Cantonese, however I'm good at finger pointing lol.
Wing Lee has nothing to do with Bruce Lee either, but the prices here Kung Fu kicks all the other eateries to the curb! I mean $6 for a combo plate? C'mon now?! And good stuff too... my favorites include the Orange Chicken, Beef Chow Fun, Roasted Chicken, and Spare Ribs (if you luck out)! Any combo is good with me! Did I mention the proportions? No worries... Wing Lee gives huge scoops of tasty foods over a bed of rice or noodles!
In the end, I recommend Wing Lee to all looking for a bargain meal that's hella good! Let's just keep this spot between you and me though... we don't want Mogwai killing all the Spare Ribs! I end with one of my favorite songs by Paul McCartney and Wings...
And when I go away
I know my heart can stay with my love
It's understood
It's in the hands of my love
And my love does it good
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa, whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa
My love does it good...
Wing Lee certainly does it good!
