Breaded and deep fried chicken pieces topped with a special sauce.  $8.75
Eric’s Restaurant, San Francisco

“General Tso’s chicken” can mean anything on a Chinese restaurant menu.   If you haven’t been to that particular restaurant before, you can expect to get just about anything.  The General Tso’s chicken at Eric’s Restaurant is one of my favorites.  The nuggets are pretty meaty (meaning they’re not overly breaded) and the sauce is absolutely delicious.  It was a great dark, garlicky flavor and it’s nice and sticky.  Noms!
