February 26th, 2007 · No Comments
I ran across this article today, which deals with Kylie Kwong and the methods she uses to lighten up traditional Chinese dishes. It’s something of a spiritual cousin to the article I mentioned a few weeks ago about General Tso’s Chicken, as well as to my essay about authenticity and El Taco.
