I had class in school all day today.  Had breakfast at 6:30am.  By the time I got out from my first class, it was 1:30pm and I was starving.  I decided to walk to the shopping plaza across the street.  Big mistake!  It was sooooo freaking hot today!  When I saw the sign outside of Chop Chop Grill with Today's special + COLD DRINK, I went right in for the cold drink.



I had no idea what type of restaurant this is.  A quick look at the menu on the wall, I think it's a Japanese fast food type of place.  They have ramen, curry, and teriyaki sort of things.  There was a guy behind the counter.  So I told him I would like to order today's special with the drink.  He then entered my order into a little touch screen computer.  Oh!  That's how customers order in this restaurant?  He said yes.  So I played with the little ordering computer a little.  How fun.




You pretty much order whatever you want on the screen, then swipe your credit card on the machine to pay.  I guess you can pay cash to the cashier as well.  But it was a fun way to order.  The cashier/waiter will bring the food to the table for you.


Thai Iced Tea

You get a drink with Today's Special.  I picked Thai Iced Tea.  It was alright.  But I was so hot and thirsty.  Finished it in no time.


Grilled Pork Rice ($5.39)

Grilled Pork Rice came in a bowl with some shredded carrot.  The pork was tender.  The flavor was on the sweet side.  It also came with a side of teriyaki sauce.  This dish tasted like a mixture of Chinese and Japanese flavor.  It was alright, but I did got really full.

If it's still this hot next week, I think I'll drive rather than walk.  There are quite a few restaurants in the plaza across the street from school.  I think I'll slowly explore them all.

By the way, I got stuck in the elevator at our apartment building today when I came http://www.eileenlikestoeat.com from school.  It was a scary experience..... I think start from now on, I'll only take stairs.... >_<

  1. have you tried 布織道? their lunch special is pretty good too

    I went there once.... about 10 years ago! haha....
    I passed by the place yesterday. Saw from the pictures on the window that they serve sizzling plate entrees and shabu shabu?
    And the window was all black so I couldn't see inside.
    A guy in a chef outfit was smoking outside the door.
    I don't know.... that place looks a little scary.
    But I'll try it someday.
