        <content>We moved to the Dupont/Christie area recently.  there is a chinese take-out nearby called Ginger Blossom.  It's probably crappy Canadian-style stuff but if not, please let me know.  It would be a good addition to the roster if not.</content>

      <content>My husband and I were excited when the place opened because we'd read good stuff about it -- we were disappointed. It's been about two years since we ordered mind you. At the time we found it greasy and not overly tasty. The rice is done with tomato which is different (the food has more of a fusion feel to it and mixes up flavours) -- but we didn't really like. We gave it two tries and that was it. </content>

      <content>Bad customer service is all I have to say. Three times I ordered takeout, and all three times the order lady seems to have screwed me with the bill. It's little things, but when you point it out, she accuses you of arguing with her. And when you come back the next time, she'll berate you in front of another customer even. For the most part, I've paid what she's asked, even accepting her unorthodox discounting system. I've tried to be very calm, very polite, and smiled a lot.

But all it did was embolden her to act out against me. This last time was the final straw. I was about ready to walkout on the entire order after it had already been prepared, and it was a pretty large order - but I had family waiting for food.

You've been warned!</content>
