Best food ever

What's the best food you've ever eaten and what made it so good?
Hmmmm. When I think about this question, I think about this place in Pacific Mall in Toronto. Pacific Mall, if you've never been, is the biggest Asian mall in North America, at least last I knew. It's freaking huge. Good place to find cheap bootlegged anime. ;) So anyway, they have a food court of sorts, but they have one general menu for everything and I didn't know what most of it was. The ONE thing that I actually recognized and would actually eat was the General Tso's chicken. It's still to this day the best General Tso's I've ever had in my life. I can't really tell you exactly what made it so good- I'm not adept enough in the kitchen to be able to tell what they did to it or anything, plus it's been a really long time and the details are lost to me now- but it was a little sweet and A LOT spicy. Like after a few bites, my mouth was on fire. XD Which is usually a deterrent for me, but this time it wasn't. What I also remember about that meal was that they gave us chopsticks to eat our meal with and nothing else. I'm a little better now, but then I couldn't eat with chopsticks to save my life, so for a while I was kind of spearing everything with one of the chopsticks, one piece at a time. (I didn't know then that this was a bad thing to do, and that I should've just made myself look like an ignorant American and asked for a fork right from the getgo. XD) Finally one of the girls I was with took pity on me and got me a fork. XDDD Well, she's also Korean I believe, so it's also possible that she'd had about enough of my terrible ignorant white person manners. XD
(Oh yeah, if you have a question/topic/whatever for me, the original post is here!)
