Old Peking Restaurant

Being Chinese American with extensive travel experience across the country, I've learned to expect little from Chinese restaurants outside of the few large metropolitan areas. After dining here, I really had to wonder how low the bar had to be set. My wife and I took my kid to U of I, and because she's still naive about Chinese dining in the more remote areas of the country, she pointed me to this restaurant which looks nice in a fairly classy downtown setting. Unfortunately, that is where the merit stops and demerit starts. We ordered a soup, two meat plates, and steamed rice. The only edible piece was the steam rice. The meats had obviously passed their time, and I did not have to taste them to tell - the appearance already broadcasted that they were from cows or chickens slaughtered before the last Republican was elected to the White House. Pros: Location in a classy downtown Cons: Food not edible more

This was honestly the worst food I have ever been served. My wife and I were visiting Moscow on business in November and stopped by for some late-night Chinese. We didn't expect much from an old Chinese restaurant in the middle of nowhere, but the food quality at Old Peking was exceptionally awful. The service was friendly, but the food quality sinks the entire restaurant. Pros: Nice service, located in downtown Moscow Cons: Horrible, disgusting food. more
