Q: My family and I ate at Emperor's Garden on Christmas. Due to the holiday, there were more people there than usual. Because of that, we only got a limited menu that was only in Chinese. Since my siblings and I can't read too much Chinese, we asked for English menus, but they refused to give them to us and just told our parents to help us order. The plates and cups they brought out were visibly dirty. I don't even know how a cup that would only be used for tea could get so dirty. There was also still a significant amount of dishwater left in my cup when I got it. Busy or not, there is no excuse to have dishes brought out like that. When we got our food, it wasn't horrible but it definitely could have been a lot better. My brother and dad both ordered noodle soups and while eating they both found pieces of string in their soup (probably used to tie the noodles together prior to cooking). We complained to the manager, but she just kept using the excuse that they were busy. Speaking of the manager, she was just yelling orders all over the place, across the whole restaurant. It was very annoying and ruined the atmosphere. My parents also kept asking for soup spoons. They asked 3 or 4 times, but we never ended up getting them. Maybe we had this experience just because we went on Christmas, but it was definitely not a good one.

Q: Went here on my way to work today to mix it up a bit from the normal routine! Oh my any diet I planned on starting is now out the window! I have driven by this place for years and never stopped! When I walked in the aroma was wonderful..I was kind of a deer in headlights since I had never been and everywhere I looked was bread, delicious bread! They had a large wall of day old bread for 1.49$ a bag, I didn't look closely but I plan to on my next visit! They had bins of bagels and rolls and all kinds of other bread that you could by per piece or by the dozen. I think I even spied bread bowls which will be fab come winter! They had Danishes and cinnamon rolls that were seriously the size of a salad plate! They require a minimum 5.00 purchase to debit and since I really was just planning on grabbing something for breakfast I had to alter my plan a bit..I got 5 Sesame Bagels, a mini chocolate swirl pound cake and a chocolate coconut muffin..for $5.60! The only thing I have tried so far is the muffin, it is like a macaroon and a cake like brownie had a love child! At first I thought it was a tad dry but when I got to the center my opinion changed! The bagels and loaf cake I have hidden in my office..I know it's sad I should probably share and I promise I did learn it in Kindergarten..but I am going to take them home to enjoy with my family tonight! The woman who worked the counter was very pleasant and asked how I found out about them since I let her know it was my first time..I told her Yelp and I drive by often on my way to work! She said she had heard of Yelp All in All..it was a great place and next time I plan to look around even more..

Q: No toaster. NO TOASTER. WHY must the best bagels in CLT be forced into a sauna to steam away all their crusty, crunchy potential? Toppings are diverse, coffee is good. Staff is cute and stoned. Decor is rad, and I feel totally comfy, until EVERYTHING IN MY 6 DOLLAR BREKKIE SAMMICH comes pouring out, onto my lap, onto my dry-clean-only Interview Shirt, and then that's it - I'm throwing a tantrum (in my head at least) and tossing the wet mess into the bin. Give us the option, kids. Don't be Steamer Fascists.
