Message: | Yes! I totally agree. The homoginization of Chinese food in this country (and most others outside of China) really stinks. The almost unreal variations and variety is what makes eating in mainland China so exciting. The only good Hunan food I found in China was in Hunan -- unlike Sichuan, Cantonese, etc. I was lucky enough to spend considerable time in Changsha (capital of Hunan) where the food was great. Otherwise I probably would have missed out entirely. I think Yunnan food is also very underrepresented (and poorly done) in the US, but it seems like there are a couple of good places in Montery Park. |
