While most items are freshest right after opening, there is one item that generally is not, and that's the fried rice. So, if you only like fresh fried rice, consider ordering something else for your side if you're doing an early order. The reason that the fried rice isn't usually fresh right at opening is that the employees are still using up the rice they had left over from the night before. The same isn't true for the white steamed rice, which is made fresh.

At the NYC pop-up, Panda's is turning its Third Avenue outpost into a love letter to its signature dish. Visitors can time-travel through Orange Chicken's greatest hits via a limited-edition menu, featuring everything from bone-in orange chicken wings to a bacon-laced throwback from 2014.

"I was like, 'I'll get whatever you want,' Ortega tells TODAY.com, joking that at that point, if they had requested lasagna from Italy, she would have made it happen."

The teriyaki chicken failed to impress with its bland flavor and poor texture, making it a less appealing choice compared to other chicken dishes at Panda Express.

The Cream Cheese Rangoon at Panda Express may appear appealing, but they disappoint with their one-dimensional flavor, lacking the traditional crab meat, leaving customers unfulfilled.
