I'm eating egg drop soup for lunch. My little hole in the wall place is good - most of them are. I've never been to a chain restaurant.

The only chain places around here (or anywhere else I have lived) have been the mall/food court ones. We have several independent take-out places and a nice sit down one nearby. We choose which one according to which dishes we are in the mood for or sometime Mark will talk me into the chinese buffet.

I love Pei Wei, I had it for the first time a few weeks ago and it is now my favorite. They aren't expensive, maybe 7-8 dollars a plate, which comes with lots of rice. My mom and I could easily split one serving. My husband and I would probably have to get our own dishes.

I'm okay at stir fry, but I can't get that nice little casing they get around their meat. Any idea how they do that? There is often a little distinctive coating which somehow doesn't get all mixed up in all that sauce.

I'd also visit any Asian grocery stores you have around. There'll be lots of inspiration in there.

I agree!

I'm making General Tso's chicken this weekend, and I was going to make the sauce myself, but while wandering the international food section of the store today, I found that buying the sauce pre-made will be cheaper (same price as the chili paste I needed to buy), and it's still pretty healthy.

My kitchen is now fully stocked of all sorts of sauces and oils for cooking Asian food.
