A Little Taste of Golden Phoenix Chinese Cuisine North Las Vegas NV

Golden Phoenix Chinese Cuisine is a casual Asian neighborhood type Restaurant that serves mostly American Chinese Cuisine. They also offer a few Thai dishes, Singapore curry, teriyaki, lunch specials, family dinners and more! They are located in North Las Vegas Nevada.

We tried two dishes. The tomato beef because that is not often found on American Chinese menus and the hot garlic Szechuan chicken with upgraded brown rice.

We were surprised with a small plate of fried crispy noodle with duck sauce.

The tomato beef is made with scrambled eggs.

I’ve had this dish before a few times…….and at each place it differs some. Here the beef is tender and the sauce is mildly tomato beefy………Here it is not sweet like it is from some places.

The hot garlic Szechuan chicken here has lots more going on with it.

The white meat chicken is lightly coated and is masterfully moist and tender. Todays vegetables are scallions, zucchini, carrots, bell peppers, onions, and two kinds of mushrooms. The sauce does have sweetness to it but not too much and has other flavors and HEAT from dried and fresh hot peppers.

The food so far was reasonably good and better than from a lot of American/Chinese restaurants we tried in Phoenix so we came back and did take out.

We tried the chicken potstickers.

These were fried and are crispy all over but tasty.

The hot and spicy chicken REALLY IS HOT and SPICY.

It’s also PACKED with LOTS of tender chicken. I like that this dish contains fresh basil but I wished they didn’t include the basil stems because they aren’t edible.But this dish does have a nice flavor to it.

Hunan beef also is pretty good!

The beef is slightly coated and crispy but also very tender and tasty. There is a little tender crisp broccoli and a generous portion of rice.

For another take out we shared the mu shu chicken.

It came with two wrappers that are similar to thin flour tortillas. This dish is very different but also very good. The flavors are much lighter and delicate. This dish is also lighter and easier to eat. This dish is also packed with more vegetables and the chicken is expertly moist and tender. It also came with this sauce that was delicious with it and was sort of mainly star anise taste.

That was a little taste of Golden Phoenix Chinese Cuisine in North Las Vegas Nevada.

The Stove NV – Henderson NV – Brunch Style Restaurant

The Stove is an all day brunch and comfort food sort of restaurant that also offers bottomless drink specials. This restaurant is located in Henderson Nevada a short drive away from “The Strip.” They offer things like burgers, burritos, chicken and waffles, omelettes, other egg dishes, and a few vegan dishes. This restaurant is located on the second floor so you need to walk up and down steps that may be hard to do when partaking in bottomless drink specials. They do have an elevator but there for handicapped only.

It’s energetic and festive inside. The servers seem quick, friendly, and efficient.

I tried the Nashville Spicy Chicken Stack.

It’s a good chicken sandwich but a far cry from a Nashville Style Chicken Sandwich.

It’s not even spicy…..(The FORKING Truth)

Anyways…….It’s made with slaw, house pickles, and really good toasted brioche bun, house fries that are really good and you have an option to add on an egg. I asked for hot sauce so I could add some needed heat to this sandwich. Like I said it was a good chicken sandwich. It just wasn’t anything even close to a Nashville Style.

My husband ordered the juicy Lucy.

It’s flat patties stuffed with some cheese sauce that is topped with a chori-queso bacon wrapped onion ring and sits on house pickles, roasted tomatoes, thousand island dressing (left off on request), toasted brioche bun, and house fries.

I heard that the bacon wrapped onion ring was pretty good. Because it’s not a big burger there wasn’t much room to fill with much cheese. Some people might want more cheese.

This was a little taste of The Stove.
