I used to be a Kung Pao fan myself, but have since discovered La Tsi Chicken, aka Dry Chili Chicken. The one at Asian Bistro is lacking in the <a href="http://www.foodmigration.com/2005/07/haunting-sichuan-peppercorn-now.html" rel="nofollow">Sichuan peppercorn</a> department, but <a href="http://www.lthforum.com/bb/viewtopic.php?p=153882#153882" rel="nofollow">check it out</a>.
