Having heard of this Fu King place from a few friends, I recently visited on a Vero Beach to Tallahassee road trip. More of a "novelty" stop - I came for the Fu King T-Shirt as they say. And 4 of the Fu King T-Shirts I did purchase. Lucked out at $12.50 each by paying cash.

Met by a delightful young server, I asked for Combination Platter specials. On the road for several hours, I would rather eat in the car and not waste time dining in. Besides, I really did only make the detour off I-95 for the Fu King T-Shirts. That and a Fu King photo or two.

Order the number 10 I was told. Not much into the Chinese soft noodle craze, I accepted the suggestion and Subgum Lo Mein - along with pork fried rice and egg roll - it was. Subgum Lo Mein is a type of Cantonese Chinese soft noodle dish with one or more meats or seafood mixed with vegetables. I've never eaten this meal in my life before this Fu King visit.

Meals made "to-go" present challenges not found while dining at a restaurant. First, and foremost, is packing all that food into small containers. And - of course - eating on the road presents its own challenge. In this instance, Fu King packed everything up nice, included plenty of napkins, soy and duck sauce, along with a fortune cookie.

Food was pretty decent - the fortune cookie was no Fu King good. Not quite sure whether to call it stale or "plastic" in taste, but I've had better. Subgum Lo Mein had plenty of meat, seafood and vegetables. Fried rice and egg roll were the house brand. It's Chinese to go in ten minutes or less.

Clean restaurant and very polite staff. While waiting for my take-out, I used the restroom and found it to be very clean. This Fu King Chinese Restaurant is a strong 3-star choice that receives a bump to 4-stars because of the cleanliness and staff. I'm sure staff are asked quite often by tourists to take a photo or two outside under the Fu King restaurant sign. Sort of "I made the visit and bought the T-Shirt" novelty approach. On my visit, it was raining but the server didn't have an issue snapping a few photos.

Located behind the Winn-Dixie and next to a Stop N Go gas station, this Fu King place had plenty of parking and was easy to find on Main Boulevard in Lake City, Florida.
