i forcefully second Wu Liang Ye. actually, for what it's worth, it's both odd compared to Americanized Chinese (especially the stuff we get up here in the Colonies...Amherst has more bad 'Chinese' per drunk fratboy than anywhere else on earth!) and extremely tasty. i didn't expect to enjoy it, i was a bit afraid of some of the food at first (things i'm not familiar with...playing the "does it have beef"? game, etc), but it ended up being pretty divine and fairly reasonable.
