Review: Peking Peking restaurant (food and delivery service)

[TomcoPDR]

So the shop decided to get some food delivery, thought we give the Chinese food a little ring-a-ding-ding.

Called up this place http://www.pekingpeking.ca/
#232, 8338 - 18 Street SE, in the Riverbend Shopping Centre. (perfect for those who works within the Calgary Auto Mall Glenmore)

Dude answering the phones was very courteous, spoke good English unlike other places with them angry bitter old Asian ladies (i.e. "HI, WHAT YOUR WANT; WAT, WAT cannot hear u, I know you screaming, but speak louder")... Though he was a bit confused when we ordered by number (#64), but he insisted that we're going to be getting number #54. Took a while till that got sorted out.

Delivery was on time as rough estimated.

On top of that, we requested some bubble-tea, however, they didn't have none. So the owner/guy on the phone/delivery driver offered to grab them from another place on the way. What great service.

What more do you want when the owner himself pulls up in a brand new scooby delivering your food?


I had mango slushy bubble tea, the entire Chatelaine Auto Spa crew got Taro (I used to like Taro until I found out 95% of places uses powdered shit)


He even remembers to put enough cutlery for us all, unlike some Asian places that'll purposely "forget" to give 'em to you. (to save a few dollars)... Ended up not needing the given cutlery, I offered to return the unused plates, forks, etc... but the owner was so generous he insisted we may keep them.




This place doesn't cheap out on the sauces and extras neither, as most Chinese food places are known to again "forget" these sauce essentials. (saves a few buck, that's how most can afford nice bling cars for their kids, BMW's, Benz, Lexus)


At the end of the day only cost about $47 plus change, I gave the guy $50, should be enough for being CASH.

Feed 3 full hungry mouths, with leftovers for another complete lunch/afternoon meal.

Double wrapped fortune cookie, does this mean anything??? Or just equivalents to little Jimmy Wong being fired from the fortune cookie factory for wasting profits?


Makes me ponder, why does fortune cookies have to be limited to just Chinese restaurants? Why can't we give these out at hair salons, massage parlors, auto shops, etc...?

We would definitely buy again.

That's a lie. The kids have no friends.

I'm going to give these guys a try even though it's on the other end of the city. All the good Chinese food places in the NW seem to have closed down.

I would like to clarify the #54 or #64 debacle! That was totally my fault all 'round haha I wanted the #54 but with the veggies that are in #64 and we were on speakerphone sorta and all laughing.. it was a disaster...

But I have to admit, through all that, I got exactly what I wanted!

Sam = A+++

Where in the NW are you? Hawkwood Palace is probably the best one I've ever had in the NW and they're still going strong.

[KandabashiDevil]

Real blended fruit BBT?

Or powder & water BBT?
