Egg rolls for me. The wife is cuckoo for crab rangoons. I know a lot of folks are obsessed with the pizza @ Fong's as well. I don't understand the appeal. Just seems like a lot of crust without much filling. Maybe I just haven't had the right kind yet? Who has the best in town?

Check the rangoons from the Chinese place on Beaver & Douglas just east of the Casey’s. Their rangoons have like a big pouch of filling and not much useless crispy wrap at the top.

Fong's Crab Rangoon pizza is fine for one slice but after that it kind of grosses me out.

crab rangoons are the bomb. As far as Fong's goes, their Honey Alfredo is the best, with lots of sriracha. Bacon Popper pizza is also good.

For pizza in the DSM area, it's hard to beat Wig & Pen, in my opinion.

Yeah, theyre famous for that because its unique, but honestly i think they have other options that are better. I'm always partial to their honey & garlic on alfredo or chicken on thai peanut.

I would be more into crab Rangoon if it actually was made with crab meat. typically it is not unless you are at a really fancy restaurant (which I rarely treat myself to).

I will add that any time my girlfriend and I go out for Thai, we always get crab ragoon as an appetizer. Never had a bad crab ragoon at a Thai restaurant.
