• My favorite food to eat when I'm back home

I eat at Mandarin Express every time I go home to visit my parents. Agoura Hills isn't exactly filled with excellent restaurants for vegetarians, so I was pleasantly surprised when my best friend suggested this place a few years ago. Even though it's pretty much the only restaurant I eat at when I'm in Agoura, it never gets old. I used to order the same thing every time (vegetarian fried wontons, mixed vegetables, and rice) because the food is so good that I didn't feel the need to try anything new. When I did take a chance and try something new like the mock shrimp and mock chicken, I loved it. The choices are endless and you really can't go wrong. It is the best mock meat and doesn't taste too much like tofu (I'd rather just order tofu if I want that taste!) or too bready like some mock meats. And thankfully it still doesn't taste exactly like meat because that would gross me out. It's just all around delicious food. Plan ahead and phone in your order because good food takes time to prepare.
