Would someone who's familiar with Chinese cuisine care to discourse on the availibility of vegetarian dishes? Is it just a run of bad luck on my part that in everyu Chinese restaurant I've been in, I've wound up munching on a salad? Karen

In almost any chinese restaurant: 1. Moo Shee (a.k.a. Moo Shoo) Egg (my favorite) If it's not on the menu, ask for Moo Shoo Pork without the pork. 2. Egg Foo Yung. 3. Cashew Broccoli. 4. Spicy Green Beans (hold the pork and shrimp!) I never eat the soups, though, or dishes in thick sauces since they are generally made with chicken stock. You might check out the Seven Seas chinese rest. in Palo Alto. Somewhat tacky, but they do have about a page of vegetarian dishes. I've had Moo Shoo Egg at Chef Chu's which is a few blocks away from you. Veggie Foods (completely vegetarian chinese rest.) on Clement St. in S.F. is tops. -- Ken Greer kg.hplabs@CSNET-Relay (ARPA) kg@HP-Labs (CSNET) hplabs!kg (UUCP)
