Annapolis Chinese?

[sweetpotater]

Meeting in the middle (coming from DC, Baltimore and Eastern Shore) for annual Christmas eve Chinese; none of us know Annapolis restaurants. We're looking for casual, decent food, toddler-friendly, easy to find. The bar is not very high this time around. Thanks!

I agree with Jack's Fortune. I live within walking distance. It's the best Chinese I've had in Annapolis. It's usually pretty packed on the weekends.

In the great Baltimore-area tradition, Annapolis is also lacking in good Chinese. I would give Jack's Fortune a try. On Forest Drive, about 10 minutes off the Aris T Allen/665 exit of Route 50.

Annapolis has a couple Thai places, untraditional for the Xmas/Chinese tradition, but same continent. Lemongrass is not Thai-owned and may be closed; Pad Thai is Thai-owned. Grace Garden is a bit inconvenient to the Shore and can be challenging to the unadventurous. This is a good question for Crackers.

I love Grace Gardens but we want to minimize travel for the in-laws, who live across the bridge -- and wouldn't appreciate GG anyway. They are orange chicken types. "Decent" and "convenient" are the main things here.

Jack's Fortune is the best Chinese in Annapolis. Lemongrass (yes, it is open!) has excellent American style Thai and a convivial environment; Pad-Thai is so-so, despite the Thai owners (they're not cooks; they just run the business part of it).

Grace Garden in Odenton, MD. The food is outstanding. Not Annapolis, but fairly central.

Grace Garden recently suffered some pretty bad damage to their location forcing them to close at the moment.

So I heard. Hope they're back up soon.
