If you have an interest in comparing apples to apples though, I'd love to hear how Szechuan Chef compares to Lucky Strike; there's no sense comparing it to other regional Chinese cuisines and dim sum restaurants... that's like comparing wyoming steak to louisiana gumbo--not that helpful.

If, by chance, you're a vegetarian, I suggest ordering the "Shredded Vegetarian in Cold Dishes" off the Szechuan appetizer menu for a new delight. That'll be right up your alley. Or, if not, maybe the Peppered Pig's rectum.

Or, just look at what all the Chinese customers are eating, ask some questions, and branch out a bit. Tough, I know. Or, you know, just stick with the General Tso's chicken and some fried rice. Your choice.

that place is protoypical sweet-flavor, stereotype MSG flavor disguising low quality, IMO.

@Rich Bach: The bar for Chinese in Portland is pretty damn low -- identifiable is good; tasty AND identifiable scans as amazing, etc.

I'd like to say that a good review isn't built on the mention of other restaurants in a negative way. A restaurant should stand on it's own.

A positively shit review Merc. Good job.
