点评:When we rate places, we rate them according to their category. In other words, just because we rate a supposed 5 star hotel lower than a 2 star doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a worse hotel. It simply means, for its category it didn’t meet the standard.
So when we go to a restaurant like Red Ginger with no expectations of an incredible culinary experience, and it surprises us in a positive way we rate it accordingly. For its category, Red Ginger was surprisingly good and that’s how we’re rating it.
We literally just wanted to put some grub in our bellies at a relatively cheap cost, so we chose Red Ginger. Based on that expectation, Red Ginger way outperformed.
We ordered shrimp spring rolls which, despite being a little greasier than we prefer, were really good and quite substantial. Four of these generous spring rolls was almost a meal in itself at an incredibly fair price.
For entrees, we ordered Mongolian beef and sweet and sour chicken. Both entrees were huge and featured unique flavors. We appreciated that these meals are by no means cookie-cutter, but instead were unique twists on traditional Chinese food fare.
We couldn’t begin to finish either entree, and will enjoy them tomorrow for lunch. Even the fortune cookies were surprisingly good. We always love when a restaurant pleasantly surprises us, and Red Ginger did just that. Two PowerTrippers thumbs up!

翻译:当我们评价某个地方时,我们会根据其类别进行评价。换句话说,仅仅因为我们给一家所谓的 5 星级酒店的评分低于 2 星级酒店并不一定意味着这家酒店更差。这只是意味着,就其类别而言,它没有达到标准。
因此,当我们去 Red Ginger 这样的餐厅时,并没有期待获得令人难以置信的美食体验,而它却给我们带来了惊喜,我们就会相应地给它打分。就其类别而言,Red Ginger 出人意料地好,这就是我们给它的评分。
我们只是想以相对便宜的价格填饱肚子,所以我们选择了 Red Ginger。基于这一预期,Red Ginger 的表现远远超出了预期。
我们点了虾春卷,虽然比我们喜欢的油腻了一点,但味道真的很好,分量也很足。四份这种丰盛的春卷几乎可以作为一顿饭,而且价格非常公道。
主菜我们点了蒙古牛肉和糖醋鸡。两道主菜分量都很大,而且口味独特。我们很欣赏这些菜品绝不是千篇一律的,而是对传统中餐的独特演绎。
两道主菜我们都吃不完,明天午餐再吃。连幸运饼干都出奇地好吃。我们总是喜欢餐厅给我们带来惊喜,而 Red Ginger 就是这样的。PowerTrippers 竖起两个大拇指!
