Tragedy Strikes Champaign Illinois

For those of you who have never eaten at Hot Wok, you probably don’t understand the magic.  I don’t know of any place on the planet where you can get Chinese food that cheap.  I can walk into that place, order the Hunan Beef on white rice and only pay $4.87.  And that food lasted me for two meals.  Can anyone else name a single serving that lasts me two meals? No.

Anyway, I drove over to the Hot Wok on Mattis and Bradley this afternoon to pick up some food, and much to my dispair, it was closed.  It’s turning into some sort of Sammy’s Pancake House.  I hate pancakes.  My only hope is that the Hot Wok on University over in Urbana will remain open, but even if it does, the days of quick cheap Chinese food near where I live are over.  I’ll miss you Hot Wok. :’-(

    chipotle at the right location will last a normal human two meals. even if you eat it in one meal, you are surely going to skip your next meal due to satiety.

    Of course you could get the buritto bravo from Dos Reales. It costs about $7, but if you take it out you get chips and rice to go along with your buritto. Talk about a meal that lasts.

    Dos does have good prices. The cost per ounce of food actually goes to zero when you factor in that you can eat chips pretty much indefinitely.
