You can add some green stir fry dish on the side too.

Looks very nice. Decades ago I had champagne crispy shredded chicken, from a local take away.. I bought it not expecting much, it was realy nice and tasted of champagne. It was one of the cheapest things on the menu. How they made it, I dont know .Trying to find this, led me here. If I ever find the recipe, I will let you know.
