So it's something that usually isn't well prepared at a place that only sells it occasionally. A lot of places have it on the menu, but it's only available if you call a day in advance and it's often not all that good. It's not that easy a thing to make on an occasional basis. Twenty years ago there were a couple places in Chinatown that mostly specialized in it and did a great job with it, but they are long gone. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.
