Ok, I finally stopped by one of the local chinese resturaunts in our city that sells tofu. So, I walk in and grab a menu and look for tofu. I look at the entire menu and I don't see tofu. So, I ask the cashier if they sell tofu and she says, "Yes". So, I ask here is it on the menu and she says, "Yes". So, I look at the menu again. I still don't see tofu. So, I ask the lady again if tofu is on the menu and again she says, "Yes". I explained to her that I didn't see tofu on the menu and asked her if she could help me find it. So she points to #75 and #77 on the menu.
#75 - Salt and Pepper Bean Curd
#77 - Buddhist Delight
Ok, so how was a newbie like myself supposed to know that. DUH!!!!! Anyway, I asked her about both dishes and she explained that #75 has more tofu and less veggies and #77 had more veggies and less tofu. So, I decided to order #75. So, I waited about 30 minutes before my order was ready. I got my order and went home. I got home and this is what #75 looks like. (see pic below)
It was enough for 3 people. There was a lot of food. The price was only $7.00. Well, I got comfortable and fixed a little bit. I was a little hesitant at first because I don't like black pepper and the name of the tofu was salt and pepper. The first bite of tofu was great. I love the "crunchiness" (if that's a word) to it. I continued to eat more and as I ate it, I realized that it wasn't as great (but still good) as the golden fried tofu (with a special peanut sauce on the side) that I ordered at the Thai restaurant a few weeks. So, I ate a little more and I was full. So, I have 2 more servings left. I will eat some for lunch and finish the rest at dinner.

So, I'm off to finding 7 more restaurants that serve tofu. I think I'm going to enjoy this.it take 9 times tasting something new (sometimes that much) before you get a "taste" for it.
