Review of Snappy Dragon Restaurant

Went twice even though the first time was not good...

Went twice even though the first time was not good. Seeing the glowing reviews, we figured maybe it had jjustbeen an off night. But dear reader, it was not just an off night.

Both times the food was quite bland, and I say this as the kind of American Dad who will (unfortunately) eat quite a bit of almost anything. Several of the dishes appeared to have been seasoned only with lots (and lots) of salt. One, a vegetable dish, was the among the top ten saltiests things I have ever eaten.

We had their land and sea stew special as well, which came in an absolutely huge portion, and contained many foods I like individually (scallops! Squid! Pork!) But it was confusingly tasteless.

Anyway, sorry to Map Leaf neighborhood for not liking your favorite spot, but man. You guys should really head down to the international district sometime and give literally any of the Chinese spots down there a try.
