It was probably something like chilhuacle's post#13. Or maybe post#22 by fert1, spicy eggplant. It was big chunks and cross sections maybe 1.5" thick, but sometimes 3" diameter. Probably a wok and peanut oil and a bunch of MSG. I have no idea on the spices though. It looked terrible but the texture was amazing and the taste was out of this world. I do remember it got to the point that I would ask to make sure they had it before I started ordering; if not I'd go to a sub shop. They had a few other good dishes but most of it was standard frozen box chinese american restaurant fare.
Maybe I will have to figure a way to use a wok in this kitchen - glass top stove and not much counter space.
