Yah, but they've been awful for at least four or five years -- at an old job, Golden Wok was somehow on the heavy rotation list for lunch. Ugh. It's especially sad given the number of Chinese places near Castro. There *has* to be something better! I'm hoping that all of these new buildings will be occupied, and that they didn't just tear down noodle houses and vegetable stands to put up useless empty office space. Hmmmm. Kevin [email removed]
