China Panda - Richmond

For the vegetarians/vegans in Richmond:
I just tried a great new chinese takeout place. China Panda, on Sheppard St, is owned by the same family that own’s Panda Garden, and serves the same chinese fare. However, what sets this apart from the other chinese establishments in the area is it doesn’t have solely bean curd dishes for vegetarians. It has mock meats as well! That’s super exciting to me at least. I ordered the Mock General Tso’s Chicken. It was fa-bu-lous. Its relatively priced and quickly made. For $6, its worth a try, right?
Here is a review I found online :
What sets China Panda apart from the many other takeout Chinese food establishments in Richmond are the mock-meat dishes. Composed entirely of substances like wheat gluten and soy products, entrees such as mock orange chicken or mock shrimp in garlic sauce may sound frightening, but they taste surprisingly like the real thing. Vegetarians who long for more variety will appreciate the comprehensive array of faux fare at China Panda. And for those who prefer the real thing, there’s a wide selection of traditional Chinese favorites on hand to keep their chopsticks clicking.
