Every once in a while we don't feel like making dinner, and when that happens, more often than not we'll end up at Panda Express. It's not only cheap, quick and a three minute drive from our house, it's also a really good fast food option. It's not exactly gourmet chinese food, but for $6, you can't really beat it. I've eaten at Chinese buffets with worse food than this.
Their Orange Chicken is really good, as is the Kung Pao chicken and the beef broccoli. The sweet and sour pork is good too, but is often too soggy for my liking. Don't waste your time on the eggrolls though, they're pretty gross. And take advantage of the half and half fried rice and lo mein noodles option, they're both really good.
