The service

by CSMobileUser

One of the waitress is very impolite and she was always reading newspaper and ignore customers. We all have to call her so many times.

This is a Chinese restaurant whose name is Good Taste. It is in Portland?s China Town and it has a good location. Good Taste is very old in the China Town, so the building?s exterior is outdated. How did I find this restaurant? When I came here, the other international students took me to this restaurant; that was my first time to eat. Last weekend, I with other people missed our country?s food, and we went there.

This restaurant sells Cantonese dishes. The Canton famous dish is roast duck, but we didn?t order it. Because a duck is so big, we couldn?t have finished it. That day we ordered the Canton style fried seafood noodle, fried beef flat-rice-noodle, mapo tofu; sauteed chili peeled beef, fermented bean curd with water spinach. It was so delicious and genuinely traditional. These dishes were plenty. We didn?t worry about that we couldn?t full up.

In fact, the Good Taste didn?t have any service. The waitress only put the dishes on table, and she went away. However at the end of the meal, The waitress was kind and friendly. When she finished her work, she came to our table to care for us. Mostly she was busy; the Good Taste brought a lot of costumer.

The Good Taste was cheaper than other Chinese restaurants in Portland. We ordered the five dishes, but we only needed $42 that was very cheap. We had six people to share the bill, everyone only spent $7each; we could eat the plenty of food. That was so satisfying for me.

Above, I said the Good Taste is in the old building; of course it didn?t have any beautiful decoration or romantic atmosphere. But Good Taste was warm and cozy; when I into the restaurant and I felt I was back in my home! Although the restaurant is small, old and crowded, I like.

I like my country food very much; also I like the restaurant, too. The Good Taste recalls my homesickness, but it also satisfies my mood. I hope I have the chance go there again.

I love Good Taste. A friend from Beijing first took me there in the mid 1990's. Not much has changed since then except that I used to be the only person in there who wasn't Chinese. Now there are almost as many Americans that eat there. I guess we're becoming a more adventurous bunch of eaters in Portland. Anyway, the Peking Duck (not always available, so call if you must have duck) is really excellent. The rest of the food is dang good too. There are ducks and other assorted roasted meats hanging in the window (a la vendors in Tianjin) that some people find distasteful. If you are among them, you might want to stick with P.F. Chang.
