- After re-reading my original posting and a couple of responses, I
- realized that many (if not most) readers probably mis-interpreted my
- request for the names of Chinese restaurants that creativly use spices
- for flavor in liu of MSG. I don't like spicy "HOT" food. I was using
- "spicy" in the broader context i.e. interesting flavors; not bland.
-
- I have been to Chef Chu's many times. Like some other posters, I find
- the prices high and the waits long. I continue to patronize them
- because I know that they don't use MSG and the food is good. It would
- be nice to have a few alternatives however.
-
- If you know of any other Chinese restaurants in the
- Sunnyvale-Mountainview-Palo Alto-Fremont-Milpitas area that prepare
- good (or great) food, but NOT spicy hot, please email or post.
