Chinese Food in Old Town/Orono/Bangor?
Is there any place in the Old Town/Orono/Bangor area to get good Chinese? I have heard Chinese food in Maine is unique, but I will take anything that is somewhat good.
Anyone have any other favorite food places in this area?

There is a Chinese restaurant in Old Town. Between Hannaford and Aubuchon. I do not recommend it though. But try it for yourself, maybe they have changed. Let us know.
In Bangor near the mall is 'Oriental jade', they are okay. A buffet. |

I liked the Oriental Jade in Bangor. Cape Cod chinese is unto itself, but I found the buffet at the OJ to be kept up meticulously the night I was there and the variety of items for the price was impressive. I think I had a Mai Tai and that was pretty yummy too and had NO influence on my taste buds, honest!!!  |

Has the Asian Palace II opened up yet on Griffin Road in Bangor? If it's anything like the original, that place would most DEFINITELY be worth eating at. |

My Wife got sick after a visit to this place! - I however had no problems, been known to eat anything that stands still long enough for me to catch it though!  |

One of the best things about Oriental Jade is they do a lot of fund-raisers for childrens activities.

I know it's not Bangor, but what do you think of the one in Brewer in that strip mall near the dollar store?
I went there once, and my experience was good. Anyone else find it okay?
One time visit is hard to say is always good.  |

I have never eaten there.
That strip mall has the 'Red Wing' shoe store, we get boots there. |
