Manu's Fushion chinese restaurant in Vizcaino
Once again we had a terrific meal at Manu's Fushion restaurant in Vizcaino. It is just a couple doors down from Sotres grocery store with the parking
lot in front of it across from the segundas and has a black front on it. It is a big place with a very nice ambiance and air conditioning.
Su remembered to wear a scarf!
I love the buffet style so you can just get food to go too. They have the usual fried rice, chicken or beef chow mein with lots of veggies, sweet and
sour, egg rolls and sushi rolls as well. Since they dont sell beer, you can bring in a 6 pack from next door. the portions are huge so one meal lasts
me 3 days!!!
The service was wonderful and it is a nice break when doing your shopping in Vizcaino or just passing through. Here is the team there who were so nice
to us all. Tell them Shari from Asuncion sent you!!!

Thanks for the heads up!
Can you post a google earth pic of the location?
I usually blast thru Vizcaino (making sure to slow for those brutal topes) but would love to try this restaurant.
Shouldn\'t one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check or Sec.8 housing?
........... I had to pass one to earn it for them!

We stopped in here last night as it was time for a break from tacos. Shari's description is spot on. The restaurant is easy to find and it's a very
comfortable little space for a sit-down meal after a long day on the road.
We didn't try the sushi, but instead opted to sample four of the hot dishes they had in the case. It's done by the order (chico or grande), and you
get two entrees and rice on the plate. Lemme tell you, the chico is plenty for even a very hungry person. I got the grande and was only able to
finish half of it (and I am a big guy and was starving when we arrived).
The food which we had was similar style to Americanized Chinese places - sweet-n-sour chicken, stir-fried beef with peppers & onions, etc.
Admittedly I wasn't expecting much from Chinese in Vizcaino, but it hit the spot. The grilled chicken dish was the best of the bunch.
For one grande, one chico, and a couple of drinks, our total was 240p. Quite reasonable, considering that we took home enough for another meal.
The Google Maps images are hopelessly outdated (2006). As you're driving north into Vizcaino, stay to the far right on the paralelo. You'll go past
the largest market in town (Sotres) on your right. You'll then hit a 4-way intersection. There's a stop sign on the median (between the through
lanes and the paralelo) that's easy to miss. One block past that intersection, on the right, is Manu's. Red trim and large glass windows facing the
highway. Hard to miss. There's plenty of parking on the curb in front of the restaurant. If you hit the Tortugas/Asuncion turnoff and light, you've
gone too far.

She was referring to the big stop sign which is on the left (in the median) if you are in the rightmost paralelo lanes.

See white dot...
Southbound on Hwy. 1, it is about 4-5 side streets south of the Asuncion/ Tortugas junction, on the left.

Have eaten there 4 times over the last year, both inside and to go. 3 times were good. Once I ordered sweet and sour chicken (pineapple chicken)
and watched as they moves chicken from one dish to another because they were almost out. Was not a good result. I usually ask they cut the rice
portion in half...way to much rice for me.

It was from the baked chicken to the sweet and sour. I guess they thought it was ok. wish we had a restaurant review and a restaurant location
section. My Mexican internet can not keep up with all the maps..been very slow lately.

At first I thought the chicken moved was from someone elses uneaten plate and that is gross. But now I see that it appears to have been just an
attempt to cover up their lack of product ---- a bit deceitful, but not gross.
