[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thus thread is reminding me if my favorite Chinese restaurant in San Francisco— Henry Hunan on Minna Street! Yum! I kived there more than 20 years ago and my mouth still waters. Such a variety. Im vegetarian, and I just dont see dishes like henrys here. For more authentic Chinese in dC, head to Rockville. Our typical DC American Chinese place is 14th street asian bistro. They’re super nice.

I had an old Chinese im american cookbook by joyce chen that i stupidly gave away. It was a classic from the early 1960s.[/quote]
Never went to Henry Hunan, but I sure do miss Yank Sing. I’ll bet you could easily find your old cookbook on Ebay or Amazon resale. [/quote]

Omg. I'm the PP who mentioned Henry;'s again. I went to Mama Chang's in Fairfax today. It blew me away! It's Sichuan cuisine. A must try -- get the soup dumplings (recommendation from my husband who's not vegetarian.) We also had the fried cauliflower, vegetable lomein (so fresh!), mapo tofu, kung pao chicken and wuhan sesame noodles. Also the large scallion puffed "pancake" which is exactly like a south indian poori, but much larger. YUM!![/quote]
