DISAPPOINTED!
by Ofam at Citysearch
My family and I had eaten here before with good memories. However, on our last visit it was a great disappointment. The waitress made a rude comment to us when we ordered. Upon asking her to repeat what she said, she denied making the comment. It was too late we had already heard her say it. When the order came (Sesame Chicken) it was very hard. There was also a hair in the rice that we ordered. The taste was bland. This is one family and friends that will not be going back. Big disappointment!
- Pros: Fortune cookie was good
- Cons: Many

DENVER – FOX 31 News has confirmed that local and federal authorities are investigating suspicions that a corrupt cop tipped off an alleged contraband lord that he was under investigation.
It was the largest investigation of its kind in the country last February.
Court documents tie politically-connected Thornton restaurant owner Dan Tang to a multi-million dollar illegal substance ring.
Investigators raided numerous homes, seized 24,000 illegal plants worth $24 million dollars. But FOX 31 News has confirmed that an anonymous letter tipped off Tang that the cops were watching and as a result, he began dismantling the operation.
Police were worried about losing evidence and started raiding the houses. During one of those raids, they found the secret letter warning Tang.
FOX 31 has also confirmed authorities believe the letter was written by an officer on the North Metro contraband Task Force. It leaked details and spilled information only someone involved in the investigation would know.
The DEA and representatives of the eight law enforcement agencies on the task force say they cannot comment because the investigation is on-going. But they did issues a statement saying they became aware of a "breach of confidentiality" last February that "involved the release of information that directly and negatively impacted an active investigation."
They say they launched a joint investigation with the DEA which continues today. And add they intend to identify and prosecute the person or persons responsible.
