Sorry.....no, we got it in Vermont. Did not order Sesame Tofu at all.
They packed it in our bag instead of the Roast Pork Lo Mein.
Everything else was accurate, as we had ordered.
However, as my post said, it was out of this world delicious.....so I found a recipe to duplicate it. I have most of those ingredients on hand, except for the tofu..........we had never had tofu before...........will definitely buy it again. It was "light" yet crispy or crunchy is maybe a better word, on the outside. Hard to explain.
I can see why vegans or vegetarians use it as a meat substitute.
The sauce is similar, but not exactly like, General Tso's Chicken????
My husband, who is definitely NOT a vegetarian........LOVED IT .
If the restaurant had not made a mistake, I'm sure he'd never in his life have tasted tofu.
p.s. Maybe if you call your local THE VILLAGES Chinese restaurant they might have it ????
