That sounds good!  Everyone at work ordered Chinese today, and I hadn't partaken in a while, so I ordered szechuan chicken.  The last time I had the dish at a Chinese restaurant in Chicago a few years ago, it was delicious.  This one was in an orange looking sauce, and wasn't what I expected.  The huge serving will be lunch and supper for me, however.

For me, grilled chicken thigh.  What is special though, the side dish is coconut jasmine rice.  It was prepared by a professional chef, Ben.  He does some things like that.

 I thought Uncle Ben got the same treatment as Aunt Jemimah and the native American Land-O-Lakes butter lady.
 

They just call it Ben's now.  Aunt Jemima is now known as Pearl Milling Company.  Doesn't have quite the same ring to it. ;)

The last one really got me -- but I always get a chuckle when I look at the L-O-L butter package in the store, now with only the grassy meadow printed on the box.  "Typical Americans, take away the Indian and keep the land".

LOL Michael!
