Is it true that ginger beef was invented in Calgary?

Yup, you can still go here to get it:

I wish I liked the taste of ginger. I think my wife puts it into her dishes so that I don't pig out.

Can you still get a caesar from the original.. umm.. caesar place?

Fuzz · 02-06-2019, 03:51 PM

From Caesar's? Yes, I'm sure you can.

Oh, wait, I guess it was invented at the Westin:

Ginger beef is very similar to a Chinese recipe called Mock Eel.

Golden Palace egg rolls from Ottawa are my favorite, and now they will ship them to you:

The question I've asked myself for the past 40 years is why are egg rolls in Ottawa made this way, but nowhere else? I've been to Singapore (large chinese population) Hong Kong, China... The only place that has the meaty, Ottawa style seems to be Ottawa. I'd do anything for the recipe.
