Question - Was there really a “Generasl Tso”? He had a kick-A$$ chicken recipe...right up there w/ Col. Sanders IMHO.

Representative Joseph Cao of Louisiana is only half the man his ancestor was.

Looked it up. General Tso is a fictional character and the chicken dish bearing that name is not native to China. However, much American-based Chinese style cuisine has been imported into China.

Little too spicy for me. I prefer Moo Goo Gai Armadillo.

Not in Macau.

This is actually good history. The history of the Chinese empire coincident with the Roman empire. The events leading to the subsequent Mongol empires that changed everything.
