I would start with the pig ears. What I mean is, I would
skip the pig ears, the least appealing dish we had. It's worth noting that most of the two orders the 11 of us had were still left over by the end of the lunch.
Some of the items might be considered "meh" by someone, and loved by another. For example, the pork with garlic sauce was mostly fat, not meat, and I would consider it "meh" (I actually thought it was awful). But someone who enjoys pork belly and other pork dishes with a high proportion of fat over meat might like it. Similarly, George liked the bean sprouts because they were mild (bland), and I didn't care for them for the exact same reason. Different strokes.
I thought the Szechuan salt shrimp tasted good, but they were a bit of a PITA to deal with, since they were head-on, unpeeled, and not that easy to get to the shrimp meat. So there's that to consider.
If I returned, the dishes I would be most likely to repeat are the Zhong dumplings, the popcorn chicken, the hot and sour soup, and the kung pao chicken, and maybe the string beans.
