Tsing Tsao
I have made the most of my recent trips to Des Moines by enjoying several meals at Tsing Tsao, a fast-food Chinese restaurant with three metro locations. Housed in small strip malls, the restaurants aren’t fancy or pretentious. The interiors are sparsely-decorated and the windows feature neon paintings advertising their latest specials.
While the atmosphere isn’t special, the food certainly stands out. Each meal is prepared fresh, and the quality ingredients help set it apart from the competition. I have tried a number of entrees in a half-dozen visits to Tsing Tsao, including their Orange Chicken and Mongolian Beef, and I have yet to be disappointed.
Prices are pleasing, too. A majority of their entrees can be made into lunch or dinner specials, which include a good-sized portion of the main dish, rice, an eggroll, crab rangoon and even a cup of soup — all for around $5. If you’re in the area and looking for cheap, quick, and tasty Chinese, Tsing Tsao is a destination you can’t miss.
