Review: Canada’s Wonderland Manchu Wok

<p><P><P>Ask anyone who visits Cedar Point what the best meal plan option in the park is&comma; and they will most likely say Panda Express due to their consistent quality&comma; great food&comma; and quantity of food served&period; As a Platinum All-Season dining plan member&comma; guests at the Cedar Point <a href&equals;"http&colon;&sol;&sol;cpfoodblog&period;com&sol;cedar-point-food&sol;panda-express&sol;">Panda Express<&sol;a> dine on a single entree meal with rice&comma; noodles&comma; or steam vegetables&comma; plus a side item of cream cheese rangoon or an egg roll&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>So during a visit to Canada&&num;8217&semi;s Wonderland&comma; we decided to try out their version of Asian cuisine at Manchu Wok&period; Located right along the central midway fountains&comma; Manchu Wok is tucked between Tim Horton&&num;8217&semi;s and the Jelly Bean Station&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Guests with the meal plans can choose a 2 entree plate with choice of steamed rice&comma; fried rice&comma; or noodles&period; While the entrees may vary per day&comma; we had the options of mixed vegetables&comma; honey garlic chicken&comma; orange chicken&comma; pepper steak&comma; sweet &&num;038&semi; sour pork&comma; spicy chicken&comma; or sweet &&num;038&semi; sour chicken&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>First up for the kids we elected to get the steamed white rice with a combination of the orange chicken and sweet &&num;038&semi; sour chicken&period; The sweet &&num;038&semi; sour chicken was in the form of chicken nuggets and drizzled with the sauce&period; While our kids enjoyed them&comma; they seemed like a cheaper alternative to the versions we eat in the states&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>The orange chicken was downright inedible&period; While the orange chicken at Cedar Point is more of a sweet and spicy sauce&comma; that served at Canada&&num;8217&semi;s Wonderland had a very strong orange flavor which just was not enjoyable&period; Fortunately&comma; there was the honey garlic chicken to the rescue&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><a href&equals;"http&colon;&sol;&sol;cpfoodblog&period;com&sol;wp-content&sol;uploads&sol;2015&sol;08&sol;150717-Canadas-Wonderland-Manchu-Wok-Plate-2&period;png"><img src&equals;"http&colon;&sol;&sol;cpfoodblog&period;com&sol;wp-content&sol;uploads&sol;2015&sol;08&sol;150717-Canadas-Wonderland-Manchu-Wok-Plate-2-1024x768&period;png" alt&equals;"150717 Canada&&num;039&semi;s Wonderland Manchu Wok Plate &lpar;2&rpar;" width&equals;"625" height&equals;"469" class&equals;"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5667" &sol;><&sol;a><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>The next plate was a combination of honey garlic chicken and pepper steak served with fried rice&period; Everything about this dish was spot on perfect&excl; The rice had a great flavor&comma; more so than that served at Cedar Point&&num;8217&semi;s Panda Express&period; The steak and peppers were excellently prepared&comma; and the honey garlic chicken was very flavorful and enjoyable&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><a href&equals;"http&colon;&sol;&sol;cpfoodblog&period;com&sol;wp-content&sol;uploads&sol;2015&sol;08&sol;150717-Canadas-Wonderland-Manchu-Wok-Plate-1&period;png"><img src&equals;"http&colon;&sol;&sol;cpfoodblog&period;com&sol;wp-content&sol;uploads&sol;2015&sol;08&sol;150717-Canadas-Wonderland-Manchu-Wok-Plate-1-1024x768&period;png" alt&equals;"150717 Canada&&num;039&semi;s Wonderland Manchu Wok Plate &lpar;1&rpar;" width&equals;"625" height&equals;"469" class&equals;"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5668" &sol;><&sol;a><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>The last plate we had was a combination of honey garlic chicken and sweet &&num;038&semi; sour chicken with noodles&period; The noodles came back with mixed reviews&comma; some not liking them and others thinking they were better than those from Panda Express&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><a href&equals;"http&colon;&sol;&sol;cpfoodblog&period;com&sol;wp-content&sol;uploads&sol;2015&sol;08&sol;150717-Canadas-Wonderland-Manchu-Wok-Plate-3&period;png"><img src&equals;"http&colon;&sol;&sol;cpfoodblog&period;com&sol;wp-content&sol;uploads&sol;2015&sol;08&sol;150717-Canadas-Wonderland-Manchu-Wok-Plate-3-1024x768&period;png" alt&equals;"150717 Canada&&num;039&semi;s Wonderland Manchu Wok Plate &lpar;3&rpar;" width&equals;"625" height&equals;"469" class&equals;"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5670" &sol;><&sol;a><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>While the meal does not include a side dish like at Cedar Point&comma; the amount of food one receives make Manchu Wok and excellent use of the meal plans when visiting Canada&&num;8217&semi;s Wonderland&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Update&colon; During our 2016 visit&comma; we ordered Manchu Wok to go and take back to our hotel room for later in the evening&period; Having learned our lesson during our previous visit&comma; we stuck with the honey garlic chicken&comma; sweet &&num;038&semi; sour pork&comma; and beef &&num;038&semi; broccoli&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>The good was the food was all fresh and tasted really good&period; The bad was that when dining in&comma; they really fill up a plate with food&period; When getting it to go&comma; 3&sol;4 of the boxes were filled with rice or noodles&comma; leaving small portions of the actual meat entrees&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;<h2>Summary<&sol;h2>&NewLine;<p>For convenience and taste&comma; Manchu Wok is a great value so long as you stay away from the sweet &&num;038&semi; sour chicken nuggets or orange chicken&period; <&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>You will get a larger portion when dining in&comma; but the to go option is nice for grabbing a meal as you are leaving the park&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>If you have eaten at the Canada&&num;8217&semi;s Wonderland Manchu Wok&comma; we would love to hear your feedback below in the comments&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><strong>&ast;
