The Great Chow Malden

Time to try another lunch special from The Great Chow in Malden and I had high hopes for this dish that you don't see too often on a lunch specials menu.

This was Salt & Pepper Squid ($7.75) with white rice. I really didn't care for their veggie fried rice at a previous visit. The batter on the squid was airy and light until it cooled down but the squid was very very dry, and the pepper part was absent unless you count a few dried chilies sprinkled in. The lightly fried onions and the spicy peppers were nice. The daily soup was H&S, and it was OK. There is still a number of dishes on the lunch specials that I will be back to try. I was the only customer at lunch today.
