TAIWAN EXPRESS – Chinese
Taiwan Express works a small room on Columbia Street in Orlando, serving Taiwanese and Chinese-American cooking to a neighborhood that mostly orders it to go. General Tso's chicken, bourbon chicken, Mongolian beef and House Mei Fun anchor a menu built on speed and volume. Hours are weekday-shaped - eleven to eight, closed Sunday - and portions are the thing customers mention first, along with staff who remember faces. Nothing about it is designed to impress; it just keeps turning out fresh plates at prices that make the delivery apps worth it.
