I now live in North Carolina where the Chinese food situation is not very good. Back in April I went to A Single Pebble and had two dishes, cold spicy noodles with chicken and duck pancakes that were identical to the food I grew up on. I'd written such things off and having them again was incredible.
Funny you should mention A Single Pebble. I just came back from two weeks in Vermont and walked past A Single Pebble a couple of times, although I haven't had a chance to eat there yet. My brother who lives nearby knows the owners and says it is his favorite Chinese restaurant there. I hope to eat there on my next visit.
