GPS maps out their location at 10 minutes away from my house.

I placed my order on my cell phone at 4:31pm. Delivery pulls into my driveway at 4:41pm and delicious food is in my mouth by 4:42pm.

In addition to awesome food, these guys are amazingly fast!

Try the "lightly fried shrimp with salt and peppers". It is awesome.

We alternate between T-Jin's and Cao's 2 for our delivery. T-Jin's is next. Can't wait!

I'd call Cao's a very above average typical Chineese delivery. TJin's tastes are distinct, yet still echo that the typical delivery uses. The answer to your question would be a decision based on quality of the tastes you're expecting (Calo's), or more unique flavors that are still really good (TJin's) It's hard to put into words. Like, if I want Hot & Sour soup, then TJin's all day, every day.

I like the entrees from Cao's better, appetizers and lo mein from T-Jin better. Comparable-ish with price, but I believe Cao's is a little cheaper. Pretty similar portion size.

Honestly my only true knock on Cao's is they don't have chicken egg rolls and they don't make dishes quite spicy enough for me. It's delicious and consistent otherwise.

Edit: TA-OP put it better. I don't have a very smart palate and I love "typical" chinese takeout. I'll also eat just about anything.

If my food were prepared that quickly, I might be a little suspicious of unexpected after-effects.

I use Cao's and Tjins as well. Food always tastes fresh and I don't have to fool with a 3rd party delivery service. If someone is going to make money delivering my food I would prefer the owner does.

The best Chinese food in town was inside the Asian market that's on the opposite end of the same strip center as Tractor Supply. Shun De Mom. But they disappeared a few months ago.

They've disappeared and come back before.

TJin Sundays was a tradition back in college. Ordered delivery every Sunday usually with a bad hangover and a case of BAS from the day before.

Still visit or order regularly when i go back!

Shun De Mom is across University from Mitchell Physics on the bottom floor of The Rise, kinda behind the CVS. Facing Taco Bell.

They have had two locations. I think both of them have had hiatuses at various times.

haha this. The first thing I thought was you can't defy the laws of physics and thus there's something suspect with the timeline lol.
