CHINA GARDEN – Chinese
Bartow Road, Lakeland, dark on Mondays and open latest on Friday and Saturday nights. The specials board is where this kitchen shows its hand: General Tso's and sesame come as tofu as readily as chicken, wings arrive buffalo, honey or garlic, and bourbon, black pepper and pineapple chicken all get their own numbers. A cheese steak egg roll leads the starters. You can order dumplings half steamed and half fried, which is a small kindness. Beyond that sit Young Chow fried rice, house special egg foo young and fried donuts. Straight-ahead cooking, priced for a weeknight rather than an occasion.
