TAIPEI, TAIWAN - Welcome to Taiwan and today is special because we are going to eat the original recipe for General Tso’s Chicken - a Chinese Hunanese dish that’s had a significant impact on Chinese restaurants around the world!
The story all begins with Chef Peng Chang-kuei, originally from Hunan, China, who later moved to Taipei, Taiwan. He came up with the recipe for General Tso’s Chicken on the spur of the moment when he was cooking for United States Navy Admiral Arthur Radford and other officers.
Today it remains one of the standard Chinese dishes that you’ll find in nearly all Chinese and Chinese American fast food restaurants and take outs. Few other dishes have such an incredible story and impact!

Never Order General Tso's Chicken At An Asian Restaurant
General Tso’s Chicken is a go-to dish for many people when they’re ordering Chinese food, but there are a lot of reasons as to why you should change up your order, at least some of the time. It might seem like the kind of dish that has been around forever, but it was actually created in the 1950s, and the chef who first came up with it only died a few years ago. However, even he was not a fan of what it had become, and it is ridiculously unhealthy. Here’s why you shouldn’t order General Tso’s Chicken at an Asian restaurant.
