 Mary Chung's is a restaurant that used to exist in Cambridge 10 years
 ago and very recently re-opened -- where the Crystal used to be.  Mary
 Chung's seems to have a strong following and yet there is another strong
 contingency of people who detest Mary Chung's & wouldn't eat there if
 you paid THEM!  I tried MC's & I think it is pretty bad.

 As for great ginger & scallion lo mein, try Chaw-Chao in Boston's
 chinatown.  Don't know about the eggplant dish.
