Petee Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Stop being so nasty. They have always been so good to us, and the waitresses are sweet. In the past, they had quite a few English ladies. Many of the Asian girls speak English and they work hard! Their food is good, fresh and there's always a crowd eating there, so if you haven't been there in a long time, go back when they open again. I have never gotten food there that wasn't excellent, and their Hot & Sour Soup was my favorite. Till they open again, in Clearfield near the Rural King, there is a nice Buffet also. Polo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly turned me off on the place and made me wonder how many similar incidents didn't get reported. I'm sure this one wouldn't have if it hadn't been for a diligent sister. No woman (or anyone else) should have to live in fear and I don't think she kept a knife beside her bed because she liked to peel apples for a midnight snack. Kudos to the police department for following up on this. Who would patronize an establishment where a woman stabs herself to keep from being raped? She should have stabbed him. A couple of times. I can vote with my dollars and I'll vote no on this establishment. You are known by the company you keep and maybe where you choose to eat. I pray those girls are all safe. WMJ77, block, Ignatius and 3 others 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLE1950 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Yes it is a little drive but try Sakura in Clarion. Good food , clean, clean clean and great staff. I love Chinese food . But I found the one in Clearfield to be dirty , cold food , and a half empty buffet. I've ate at the one in Punxsy for years until I got food poisoned last year. They cut the buffet in half and the quality has went down. I wasn't impressed with the one that is the topic either. Go ahead call me a food critic but when I spend good money I want good food and clean surroundings Gator11 and Sunshyn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see it as throwing "the baby out with the bathwater." Perhaps, but it can also seen as breaking up a system that fosters harm even though it might leave people, sometimes the victims, to find other ways of dealing with their lives. The ending of slavery sent ex-slaves into a world where they then had to deal with balancing budgets, seeking out medical care, finding work and all of those other necessities of life that were previously arranged for them. What price freedom! Breaking up the Mafia put a lot of people out of work too. There is a great opportunity for exploitation in importing young women to work here, especially when they can't speak English and are accustomed to a different social system where they have few choices in their lives. I hope the police and social services looked into this situation. I'm betting this is a case of indentured servitude. Somebody got these young ladies into the country and paid for their expenses. So what do they have to do in return? Can they just walk away from the houses they have them living in and get a job at McDonald's? Do they get paid? Do any of them integrate into the community? Get married? Have friends outside their jobs? Do what normal people do? I don't like it. Teach them English and turn them loose or send them back to their mothers. Maybe the won't have to sleep with a knife beside the bed and those exploiting them will have a few dollars less. Maybe I'm wrong about their situation but that's how I see it.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I have not been in about a year and a half since the pandemic started. Not because of that but havent had the time really to go. I have been craving Sakuras lately and may go here soon. I also like College buffet in State College but really for just a couple dishes that no one else has. They have a nice spicy shrimp dish that I love.
