• Must Try ★★★★★ Tong Cho Crawfish Visited Jan 8, 2017

  Amazing Spin On General Tso Chicken! Crawfish.

  I saw this place on the Travel Channel. CNN had featured it as #22 of the 50 best chinese restaurants in America. The restaurant was recognized because its chef uses local ingredients like gulf shrimp, crawfish and fish that are native to the gulf coast. He makes fusion dishes that blend those local ingredients with Cajun and Chinese dishes.
  
  I visited in October, which isn't seafood season, and asked about the Alligator first, and then the crawfish dish I saw on TV.. The waiter went to the kitchen to ask if I was able to get the Tong Cho Crawfish even though it was out of season.
  
  (Menu Description: Fresh crawfish tails lightly dusted with flour, crisped in hot oil and topped with our sweet hot pepper garlic sauce. A Trey Yuen signature sauce.) Which if you can imagine it is like General Chicken meets Fried Crawfish.
  
  The waiter returned and said they still had some crawfish frozen in the back, they could thaw out and make for me. I felt this was beyond amazing customer service. They knew I was from out of state, had visited wanting to try that item, and went out of their way.
  
  The dish was amazing, the food was piping hot, flavor was amazing, sweet, salty, spicy, crunchy. This dish had everything going on. Bright colors from a mix of vegetables and mixed peppers. I was absolutely blown away by the dish.
  
  Thanks to the wait staff, and the kitchens willingness to prepare an out of season dish, I had the best meal of my trip.. The picture doesn't do it justice.
  
  The restaurants insides were decorated amazingly, with tons of wood, sculptures and Asian themed decor. The outside of the restaurant was as impressive if not even more. The outsides were filled with gardens, bridges, manicured plants, trees and bushes.
  
  I will definitely return and introduce some fellow travelers to this gem.
