I came across a wikipedia article regarding "General Tso's Chicken" claiming it had originated in NYC (or possibly Taiwan) in the early 1970s.

I was eating this stuff at Montreal's first Szechuan restaurant, "Peking Gardens" as early as 1971. I've added a "Montreal claim" to its dubious NYC origins claim; I wonder if anyone has more input.

The Montreal chef originally came from London UK in the late '60s; perhaps the dish may have originated there? Aqking (talk) 18:38, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
