Default Ala King? Tetrazzini?

they from memory seem similar but i am thinking a la king has the pimintoes
and not as much starch, the other one i think has cheese on top and possibly
is put together and baked, but my memory isn't working great tonight.

ps and what i do remember is that ala king was always chicken the other one
was always turkey,
