Tex-Mex and Chinese Food

It's late, I'm tired, and ready for bed. Yet, I still can't believe the discovery I made only a few hours ago. I'm still asking myself in my mind if what just happened actually just happened. So it's 7 PM, I'm done with work, I hop on the subway, and make it back to my building where I decide I should start working out. Considering I finally made it to Jamba Juice and ordered a smoothie with one of their "Boosts of Protein" it would only make sense I utilize all the protein flowing through my veins. Does protein flow through veins? Check that, it flows through muscles. So anyways, I had all this extra protein flowing through my muscles, therefore I went to the gym in the basement of my building and pumped iron. After working out, taking a shower, and clothing myself I decided to explore nearby restaurants. Before I left I checked out Google Maps to see what direction I should take. While looking at nearby eateries I saw the name of a restaurant called Good Time. Except Good Time isn't like any normal restaurant. They serve Chinese and Mexican food. Quite possibly making the greatest find in my lifetime I scurried out my building speed walking like a slightly overweight middle aged woman to determine if Google Maps was toying with me.

After getting to the corner of 101st and Lexington, I found New York's secret gem. I was in ecstasy. A restaurant that serves Chinese and Mexican does, in fact, exist. I don't know why they are listed as Good Time on Google Maps or Yelp, because the sign read, "Forever Best" but I didn't care. I stepped in through the welcoming doors with more swagger and confidence than any man should have upon entering a restaurant. The smells of a Mexican fiesta and Chinese fireworks filled the air. I stared at the menu along the wall- do I order Chinese or Mexican, I asked myself. I couldn't decide. But with the help of the pictures posted next to each item on the menu I decided to go with the Mexican chicken and rice. It cost me less than $5 and I even got to sit near a real New York City Transit bus driver.
