Uncle Cheung's Restaurant
Uncle Cheung's Restaurant is a nice small family restaurant located on Route 9 in Framingham, Massachusetts. They are the 'home of authentic Chinese Food.'
This is my daughter's favorite Chinese restaurant, and the owners know us so well because we order the same dish every time.
What Makes this Place Special?
There are a lot of Chinese Restaurants in the Metro-West area. In fact, there are about 20 in an 8-mile radius of downtown Framingham.
So what makes this place better than all of them? Ming Cheung
Ming, the son of the owner, is a dietitian at Beth Israel Hospital who specializes proper care of gluten free foods. On weekends you may find Ming waiting on tables at the restaurant. He has raised over $12,000 for various marathons.
Uncle Cheung's has a special area of their kitchen where they process their gluten free foods.
Excellent Gluten Free Options!
Just about every dish on their menu can be made Gluten Free. There are some limitations, with the exceptions of some appetizers can't be made gluten-free. (Egg Roll are not Gluten Free.) Simply let the server know you wish to eat gluten free and they will work with you.
Keep in mind that 90% of the menu items can be made gluten-free. This is what we order every time we go:
- Sweet and Sour Chicken
- Vegetable Fried Rice
- Boneless Spareribs
We prefer to eat in instead of taking out. The Sweet and Sour chicken has a nice glaze on it, whereas if you do a take out they separate the chicken and glaze. It just doesn't taste the same.
If the restaurant is very busy they may place a limit on what can be made gluten free because many of their gluten free dishes are made to order and require more attention than a standard order.
Oh, and eating Gluten Free isn't a penalty here. You don't pay more because your eating gluten free.
