Where do you go when you want to indulge in good, old-fashioned Chinese-American comfort food like General Tso’s chicken and sweet-and-sour pork—without the chicken or the pork? Houstonians head to Pepper Tree, where husband-and-wife owners Mike and Happy Tsai have been offering excellent vegan versions of classic Chinese-American dishes for nearly a decade. The most popular item off the buffet is that General Tso’s vegan chicken, but we also like the pan-fried dumplings and, on weekends, the vegan sushi with fresh avocado.
