Shuang Cheng Walleye

Hubby's favorite place to eat in all of Minneapolis is a Chinese spot called Shuang Cheng.

It's kind of a hole-in-the-wall place. It's not really a dive, but it's certainly not swanky. It is, however, really really really good food.

The restaurant is in Dinky Town, a small retail neighborhood on the University of Minnesota campus.

One of my favorite things to eat there is the walleye with black bean sauce.

If you're not familiar with a "walleye" it's just about the best fresh water fish ever. Minnesotans love their walleye and now that fishing season is officially here, walleye fever is in full swing.

A recent article I wrote for a local publication was little more than a list of walleye recipes.

And in one month, I will be taking a trip to northern Minnesota to try my own hand at walleye fishing. I'll write about it all, of course, for GoNomad.

But even if I manage to snag a big one, I don't think I'll be able to bring it home and deep fry it whole like they do at Shuang Cheng.

Recently someone was asking me what do I like to eat when I go out and I said Chinese. And both of us immediately said cooked the Indian way as we make it much more spicy!

"Chinese" food is no longer "Chinese" food.

Every culture twists it to please its own tastes!
