Monk's Special Vegetarian Menu at Happy China in Parkville

Lots of vegetarian options at Happy China. There's the standard vegetable section (with items like Crispy Eggplant, General Tso's Tofu, and Moo Shu Vegetable), plus twelve soy-based items on the "Monk's Special Vegetarian Menu". These include a couple of veggie "beef" dishes, a "pork" dish, and lots of different "chicken" options. We tried two items from the special menu. The veggie chicken in the Monk's Szechuan Chicken is sliced, with a texture similar to extra firm tofu. The Monk's Sesame Chicken is deep-fried cubes, also similar to tofu but very dense and chewy. Both were delicious. They also offer vegetable dumplings and spring rolls, scallion pancakes, sesame balls, and a few vegetarian sushi options.
