Mei's Cuisine -- U12 Luncheon Special

I've said this before, but i'll say it again just in case you've never heard me say it before: General Tso's Chicken may have originally been made with dark meat, but it shouldn't be made with it now, especially it it's stringy and just an amalgam of several dark meat pieces cobbled together with fat.

However, if you do it right, dark meat is perfectly acceptable with General Tso's, and Mei's Cuisine in Suncook achieves this.

How do they do it? With very small croquette pieces. Each piece of dark meat gets its own little morsel. The sauce was ok, but if the meat is the key thing to the dish, and Mei's does fine with it there.

I ordered the U12 Luncheon Special, which gives Chicken Fingers aand Fried Rice along with the General Tso's, and at a decent price to boot. It's unfortunate that the place was empty when I was there, because this meal wasn't too bad, and I would suggest it to anyone driving from Hooksett to Concord on the west side of the Merrimack River.
