My second Diamond in the Rough award goes to April Chinese
Southtown , located at 2030 S Alamo St, next to another upcoming Diamond, the local Church’s Fried Chicken.
I’ve been meaning to stop many times to try the food and finally last week Uncle Ernie and I were in the mood for something Oriental. The one drawback for me is the “kim-chee-ish” smell that eminates as soon as you open the door. It disappeared for me shortly after arriving. The food was superb and in bountiful portions. I tried the General Chicken and determined it was the best version I’ve ever had. At $7.89, I certainly couldn’t complain about the price. We noticed several people coming in for take-out, so if you don’t like waiting call ahead , (210) 223-7335. April’s prepares everything fresh. Worth the wait in my books.
