Red Lotus: Chopped fish with pine nuts

Tried the 'Chopped Fish with pine nuts' off the chinese menu at Red Lotus - good dish to try but I don't know that I'll get it again. It's tasty but wayyy too bland for my taste - it has to be bland so you can taste the pine nuts. So overall the dish is very well executed - it looks beautiful; white fish with finely diced few pieces of green & red pepper in a transparent sauce.  The taste of the pine nuts is notiecable and the freshness of the fish can be appreciated but I need a kick of chilli and complexity of spicy flavors that this dish doesn't have.
