East China

Looking for good Chinese takeout? Then look no further than this small, family-owned Aurora restaurant, which offers dine-in, takeout and delivery service within a five-mile radius. There really is nothing better than settling in for a Netflix marathon with waxy white boxes filled with fried rice and crab-cheese wontons. East China has an impressively large menu featuring appetizers ? yes, there is a pu-pu platter ? soups, and entrees made with chicken, pork, beef, seafood, duck or vegetables, as well as a smattering of Thai dishes and a couple of Vietnamese noodle bowls. The weekday lunch specials are cost-effective, the level of spiciness can be adjusted between warm and searing-hot, and East China has those crispy almond cookies that provide a happy ending to any meal.
