We have not found named dish, Almond batter or gravy. Spices are part of the dish, the region dictates how it is prepared.

Our son who lives in St Paul, took a sample back home to their local Asian restaurant, while they liked the flavors, it was not their traditional dish, it was a no.
We prefer buffets and in a crowded restaurant the dishes are replenished quickly so food still tasty. However most of the food at a buffet is the same whether you are north or south. Always amazed how many different dishes I have had in China always new ones and how here almost always the same.

Guess they figure we want the same old.
