Chatham Ontario, Chinese food, Zywiec Beer

  I am visiting Southwestern Ontario LCBO stores today and tomorrow. Overnight stay in Chatham at the Travelodge on Bloomfield Road. $87 + tax. Decent room, and I do look forward to a complimentary hot breakfast tomorrow. I searched Restaurantica dot com for a suitable Chinese restaurant. I read the reviews and settled on Fortune Express on Wellington. The small little restaurant looked clean, but I opted for takeout so I could watch Dancing With The Stars on TV back at the Hotel. The food is good. Here's what I posted at the site: Review: I had to stay overnight in Chatham. So the question, where to eat. I checked this site for reviews and was convinced that it would be a good place to get take out (I wanted to watch TV back at the room and eat).

The food was ready promptly and it is very good. It's Canadian style chinese food, not authentic style. But it is a very good meal and generous. I'd just do one thing different next time: "ask for NO MSG." Their application of it was light, but I object to this chemical and am mildly allergic. My fault. I forgot. If you eat in, it's pretty tiny, but clean.

The Beer: Zywiec (500 ml, Poland). The logo thermometer said it was cool enough to enjoy. So I did. This is a medium-bodied brew that shows an enticing golden color, a light head, and moderate natural carbonation. Just the right amount of light hop bitterness. The beer is brewed naturally, just 4 ingredients. Long brewing/lagering times. It's real beer, not junk (like most commercial beer today). This is a fine beer. No wonder it's the most popular beer in Poland and the most popular Polish beer in Ontario.
