We have been driving by Chun Wah Kam on Pensacola for over a year.  The new bright signs and large building looks good from the outside but we had no idea what to expect inside.  I only know Chun Wah Kam from when we order Manapua or Dim Sum for takeout.   Have never dined inside.  Was quite surprised to find out the place is a type of Plate Lunch operation similar to a Panda Express.  You order at the counter, pick a starch (noodles or rice) and then make your way down the line to choose your entree.  The Mini Plate ($7.50) comes with up to two types of Starch and two entrees.  This is a big heavy box of food that none of us really liked or finished.  I liked the Fried Rice with Char Sui.  Not a bad Fried Rice dish.  The Beef Broccoli and the Sweet and Sour Fish was decent.  My daughter and wife did not care for the Red Pork.  Both thought it was uneatable.  The Salt and Pepper Shrimp was too salty and greasy.  The Pork Adobo was salty too.  Tasted like Pork in Soy Sauce.  Not our favorite type of food and probably will not return.
