I liked it :) however, I had to add more sauces (panda sauce) to the food because it was kind of bland. I also left out broccoli because I didn't have any at hand. I used eggplants in place of them instead. I think the presentation with the broccoli would definietly be more pleasing then the eggplants though. Overall, thanks for the recipe!
