Eating At Kabob Palace Friday - Really!

Okay, this Friday the South Sac crew will finally head down to Elk Grove and eat at Kabob Palace, as was our intention last week.  It's at 9620 Bruceville Rd, Suite 104.  The menu is here.  No, the picture above has nothing to do with the restaurant, but it's public domain!

Heading Over to Kabob Palace on Friday

As regular readers know, the South Sac crew heads out to dinner Friday nights to sample local cuisine.  We have a regular circuit, but are looking to expand it.  This Friday we have decided to venture down to Elk Grove to try out Kabob Palace. 

Kabob Palace used to be on Franklin but has moved to 9620 Bruceville Road - by the Kohls and across the street from the plaza where the Nugget is located.

Here is the menu, and I'm looking forward to the Baklava for desert.

New Walmart Will be Hiring in Elk Grove

By now you know that a new Walmart will be opening in Elk Grove and that means jobs for the region including South Sac.  Submit your application online here.  Read about the new Walmart here. 

Personally, I love Walmart.  When I enter one I can't leave without buying something.  I do like the one here in South Sac on Florin but it doesn't seem to be a super duper Walmart as big as the one by Ikea in West Sac or the one in Dixon.  I like to know where the Walmarts are located when I travel, too.  When I'm staying somewhere for business or on vacation the local Walmart is the place to go for food, extra clothes, and of course drinks! Especially that Walmart now sells beer and wine.

Review of Wonderful Chinese

I did eat at Wonderful Chinese in Elk Grove last Friday and the food and service were good.  We were seated right away in a booth.  We had the dinner specials which allow you to chose an entree and receive won ton soup, egg rolls, fried won tons and steamed or fried rice.  We chose Szechuan Chicken, and Beef and Broccoli as the entrees.  I thought the Beef and Broccoli had an aroma not too pleasing.  I was told it was the Oyster Sauce.  I didn't like it but others in my party did like it.  I loved the Szechuan Chicken, except I am not a fan of mushrooms.  I will go back - we always do - and tell them to hold the shrooms.

While we were there I noticed that the two businesses next door in the strip mall were closing.  One is a small Japanese convenience store called Koryu Mart that I always wondered how it stayed in business.  Everytime I went next door to eat the place looked empty.  Next to that is the Hallmark store.  That is closing and many things inside are 60% off.  I guess when your house is in foreclosure you just aren't interested in buying the small knick-knacks for your house this store sold. 

Where to Eat This Friday?

I usually eat out on Friday evenings, and it's time to start thinking about where to go this Friday.  I'm leaning towards a restaurant in Elk Grove called Wonderful Chinese.  It's in a strip mall off of Bond and Hwy 99, but I have always found the food and service to be great.  Here are the reviews from Yelp.   I know this isn't a South Sac place, but it's pretty darn close.
