there's definitely good chinese food to be had here. it's not necessarily in the places you'd expect (for instance, not chinatown, which is very tourist-oriented). instead, go out to the avenues ...

The funny part is that Rice-A-Roni has nothing to do with San Francisco any longer, and hasn't in years. It's now manufactured by Pepsico.

NNNooooooo! Next you'll be tellin' me that Pu Pu Platter isn't authentic Chinese cuisine...

I think that most Chinese restaurants in NYC/Boston are as good as anywhere else. Sometimes better. Never saw a Chinese restaurant in Montreal though... and I didn't have the guts to try one in Washington DC.
