My food was NOT great! I got "Fire Grilled BBQ chicken over rice" and it was completely bland. No barbecue sauce or spice at all! It was just plain white chicken with a bunch of mayo and sweet and sour sauce on top. It didn't taste bad but describing this as BBQ chicken is ridiculous :( - Sophie Hachten
