Mr. Hui's LIncoln ne

I just want to put it on the table that it took me a very long time to appreciate chinese food. I am not much into fish and seafood and the flavors were nothing like the regular farmers wife cooking my mother did. (I find this style of cooking delicious by the way :) )  But as time has went on and the persistence of my husband to prove to me it's good food, I have found a few places along the way that I enjoy.

I am very picky about the quality of meat that is used in Chinese foods. I am not sure if this is just a Lincoln thing but allot of the places have chewy meat that they use in their foods. I cannot stand this. Yuk.

Anyway, if you hate chewy meat too then you will love Mr. Hui's, the quality of meat is fabulous, there are so many levels of flavors going on these plates that my tongue felt like there was a fireworks show going on. The rice was cooked just right and they have lots of adventurous dishes if you are more like my husband and several tame ones too if you are more like me.

I had the Mongolian Beef. The flavor was out of the world. My only complaint about this dish is that I almost had too much sauce. I'm the kind of gal that likes to mess up my plate by dumping the rice into my plate and mixing it up!

Greenfields Lincoln Ne

Ok so when I had Greenfields about 2 yrs ago it kind of reminded me of an Ihop kind of place but way on the south side of town and not really good enough to warrant me driving all the way across town. But, when I read in the paper that they changed their menu I was intrigued. I thought, maybe I should give them one more try. Needless to say I am glad that I did. I tried the Peanut Butter Burger and Fries. The Peanut Butter burger was fabulous with lots of melty peanut butter piled up with Yummy Bacon and a subtle bite from the Pepper Jack Cheese. Moving on to the French Fries. These were divine. The french fries seemed to be lightly battered and fried. So when you bit into them the inside is soft but the outside takes on this lightly crisp salty goodness. I will definitely be eating here again. I suggest if you have tried them before but did not like them give them another chance. 

I would also like to say that the decor changes were nice too. I really like the individual daisies in vases on the tables, the strings of white lights and coat hooks at the ends of each booth. It has a feeling of stepping into some quaint little restaurant along a city street even though you are in retail development on the outskirts of town.
