Out to Eat: MaMa Tang

Elm Springs Road has seen its share of changes over the past
decade, particularly around the I-49 interchange. But one of the things
that has remained a constant is Mama Tang Restaurant located just to
the West of where Huntsville turns into Elm Springs on the North side
of the road. The building stands unassuming and surrounded by trees
but what awaits inside is worth the trip.
I've eaten there numerous times over the years, but being the creature
of habit I am I usually don't stray far from what I know to be pleasing to
my taste buds. Getting started is always an easy choice. The Cheese
Stars, more commonly called Crab Rangoons, are delicious and full of
flavor. Cooked just right and not too tough as I've experienced in other
places. I'm always a fan of Sweet and Sour Chicken with Fried Rice
and theirs doesn't disappoint. A healthy amount of chicken smothered
in sauce and piled high on the bed of rice makes for one huge or two
small meals depending on the person dining with them. On a die note, I
have also had the Mama Tang's Fried Rice. It includes a wonderful
mixture of chicken, beef and shrimp in a sea of fried rice. Certainly
enough for dinner and lunch the next day if you so choose.
So the next time you are on Elm Springs stop by and experience
excellent Chinese food in a clean environment from a friendly and fast
wait staff. Tell them we sent you by!
