[/ QUOTE ] ehh, depends on mood and person, well done, either can be phenomenal. for me, the general owns but some don't like the spicy. besides which sesame beef is much better than the chicken version. never seen tso's beef however. on breading, it's up to the place, any decent one will do as you ask. can anyone elaborate on the "not real dishes". i worked with a chinese woman who remarked on how certain places didn't serve real chinese food but never got an elaboration. i suspect, from dining in really good chinese restaurants, that i may know but am not sure. |

[/ QUOTE ] it was just funny to see this thread because the woman and i went to pick up chinese on saturday, and we agonized over the decision between sesame and tso for like 5 minutes while we were having drinks at the bar. we finally decided on sesame because we always get tso. When we got it home and started eating it, we looked at each other and said almost simultaneously "we should have went with the tso". Then I log on here and see this the following morning - it made me laugh. |
