Nah, Green is good. The food was lukewarm, though.

well I hope his beer was lukewarm too... leaving a person to starve like that. You know I'm kidding.

Do you have PF Chang restaurants up there? They are a chain, but if you want to you can order your own concoctions (although they don't advertise that). I find their Chinese food to be really quite good. Regular Chinese or any far eastern food is not the most popular in this part of Texas, so the pickins are slim. Except that we do have some very decent sushi places. Go figure.

Toronto has a huge Chinese population and a lot of Chinese restaurants, most of which are independents. The one near me is run by a family and serves pretty good food. It has quite a few spicy dishes on the menu.

Toronto is a large city - 3 million - and it is a city of immigrants. Ethnic eating here is great! I and my mate can walk to Chinese restaurants, a couple of Ethiopian places, Italian, Indian, south Indian, Vietnamese, Mexican, Thai, Lebanese, Greek, Carribean as well as the usual chain fast food joints. There are also Portuguese restaurants in the hood but I don't like Portuguese food - too much fish and meat and not enough vegies and salads.

It is because of this and the cheap books that I love big city life.
