 The Lotus Blossom on Rt 20 in Sudbury is very good. Great service and
 a unique atmosphere as well. It does get very crowded...Sunday
 afternoon was a good time to go.

 Don't know its name offhand, but I thought the food at the Chinese
 restaurant tucked away next to the Stop 'n Shop on Rt 9 (at Eliot St)
 isn't bad.  Done takeout a couple of times, and liked it better than
 Ming Garden (they actually make their food spicy when requested).
 It's in the building adjacent to Eliot Street (behind the gas
 station), next to the beer-making store.

 Thanks we'll have to try that (the chinese restaurant on route 9 near
 S&S in Newton).  We finally tried Ming Garden (on route 9 in Newton)
 last Saturday and while it was better than Sally Ling's it was still
 disappointing.  The Ravs were very doughy and the food wasn't all that
 spicy.
