"If i made General Tsao's at home, this is what it would taste like." - Mike McEvoy
Spicy Wok is located below 42nd on the west side of the Ave. It has a small store front but it had a board outside with pictures of food that caught their attention. (However tacky the board may have been.) As you entered the restaurant, you stepped into a megalomaniacal amateur food photographer’s domain. Pictures of meals were everywhere. A repeated picture menu. Art that was only pictures of the same food from the menu. (while there were only food pictures, they had nice employees and asain TV shows on.)
The menu was pan-Asian fusion (thai teryaki chinese, etc...) A great place to go if there are 6 different people who are indecisive. Their downside was that they had too much of a variety. (It's the anit-Dick's for all you hardcore Seattlites.)
Mike ordered the General Tsao’s chicken dish. Mike was filled up, for the $6.25 he spent. (The menu averaged about $6, which is not too shabby.) It was a plate full of plain rice, okay salad, and chicken. Not a bad taste, but bland and unexciting.
Bottom Line: Mike says it’s not worth walking all the way down there for some Chinese food.
Taste: 4.5

Mike-
You don't know me but I go to the INN and I saw your advertisement for this. This is pretty cool, I had the same idea a while ago but it never really got to fruition. There's another guy who happens to go to the INN who also had the same idea, I don't know how for along he wound up getting. Anyway, cool stuff, and I'm excited to see your reviews of my favorites.
