When you’re in the mood for some Chinese, there’s just no other cuisine that will quite satisfy you. We’d like to share with you a few of our favorite places here in Durand, MI where we think you can get the best Chinese food.
Canton Chinese Restaurant
Located at 5313 Fenton Rd, Canton is open from 11 AM until 9 PM Tuesday through Friday and from noon until 9 PM on the weekends. They are closed on Mondays. This is a relaxed place with great lunch deals, and they are beloved in our area for their great portion sizes, delicious food, and accommodating staff. It’s not a big place, so many people do take out here rather than dine in. They offer a 5% discount if you pay with cash, so hit the ATM before you arrive.
Be sure to have their house special fried rice, the crab cheese, and their sweet and sour chicken. Their wonton soup is also really good, and the egg rolls are some of the best you’ll ever eat. The portion sizes are large enough that you usually have leftovers, but there are never any egg rolls left over, if you know what we mean.
China City
On 4831 Fenton Rd, China City has been offering great food at good prices for years. They are a family-friendly place offering traditional Chinese-American style food, but with some innovative twists to modernize the experience. They will get to know you by name, and they are known especially for how fresh their food is and how large the portions are!
When you visit, we recommend you start with the spring egg roll and pork dumplings. Their beef fried rice is very good, and if you want it all, get their deluxe fried rice, which comes with beef, ham, chicken, pork, and shrimp! You can get all your takeout favorites here, but you should try some of their unique offerings, like the spicy Singapore noodles, the stir-fried bean sprouts, and the almond boneless chicken. Their crunchy noodles are also a big hit with us.
Cantonese Gourmet South
You’ll find this eatery at 3205 Saginaw St, and they’re open from 10:30 AM until 10 PM most days. On Friday and Saturday, they close later at 11 PM, and on Sunday they close earlier at 9:30 PM. On Saturday they don’t open until 11 AM, and on Sunday they don’t open until noon. It’s a bit complicated, but it’s worth learning the schedule to try the great classic dishes they offer (and get in on their specials).
Cantonese Gourmet South also caters, so give them a call if you have an event coming up. We recommend that you try one of their combination plates, which are served all day every day and include your choice of meat in a fried rice dish and a chicken or shrimp egg roll. Our favorite is the spicy Mongolian beef plate, but the sweet and sour shrimp are also delicious.
These are the best places for Chinese in our town, and we hope you’ll enjoy them as much as we always do. Stop by Randy Wise Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Durand to check out our specials on cars and trucks: or just to ask about more great places to eat near Durand!
