Hi, I'm a long-time reader of EGullet, but this is my first post. I am always looking for great Asian food. I'm a big fan of Noodle Chu, and used to eat regularly at Little Saigon until it burned down. I went to Hunan Cottage last night with my family. Like others noted, I was not given the special Chinese menu, but I knew to look for it so I grabbed one from the hostess station. The special menu had English one side, and Chinese on the other. However, they did not correspond 1-to-1. The English special menu had 39 items on it, but the Chinese one had 53. Also, the dishes noted as spicy did not match up (e.g, dish 9 was spicy on the English menu, but 8,9, and 10 were spicy on the Chinese side). The special menu also was a great deal cost-wise. Monday through Friday (we went on a Friday), you get 3 soups and 3 dishes for $19.99. We ordered pork with yellow leeks, chicken with spicy peppers, and chicken and green beans. The pork with yellow leeks was excellent, the chicken with spicy peppers was mediocre (it was your standard schezuan chicken w/ celery, peanuts, and hot peppers), and the chicken & green beans was basic but fine (this dish was for the kids). We also had started with noodles in a spicy pepper sauce, which was very tasty (noodles mixed w/ hot chili peppers & cool cucumbers). However, although my dinner was fine, I will likely not go back, as I was turned off by the subtle Asian/not Asian discrimination going on, as earlier posters to this thread noted. My wife & I observed that every Asian table got the specials menu, while none of Caucasian tables did. It's bad enough that the proprietors assume that Caucasians wouldn't want the authentic Chinese food, but in this case, they are also missing the chance for the $19.99 three dish special. I really found this offensive, and wonder if it is even legal to offer different patrons different menus w/ different prices. Looking forward to further comments, Larry
