RIP, Ching Dow
I still can't believe it, but it's true. Ching Dow is no more. There are other Asian restaurants in Fairfield, but Ching Dow is (WAS... sigh) the only place to really order off-a-menu-takeout-in-little-boxes Chinese food. How am I going to live without my broccoli chicken or my moo shu vegetables? I NEED THEM!
I don't really know why they closed down on April 1, but I'm guessing their business was hurting from the new Hy-Vee store's Chinese food and also the Chinese buffet place that Andrew and I call "The Trough." Both of those are OK. But they AREN'T Ching Dow! I can only hope something even more wonderful will come into town in its place.
