Don't let the name fool you--Mr. Max is authentic Japanese

Sauteed scallops Hunan style featured silver dollar-sized battered scallops that were moist, tender, and chewy without being tough. An accompanying side dish of steamed broccoli was an uninspired afterthought, and the only part of the meal that didn't pass muster.

Sesame-fried banana and sesame-fried apple offer a sweet but subtle ending, each offering warm, melt-in-your-mouth fruit wrapped in a light, sesame-scented batter.

Pheasant and venison also are on the menu, and Uncle Tai's carries on a long-standing tradition of note to area sportsmen. Kill a critter and bring it into the kitchen, and Uncle Tai's will prepare it for you Hunan style. They already have a ready supply of pigeons, but go ahead and shoot some anyway.
