What do you usually get at chinese restaurants?

[AmayaOnnaOtaku]

General Tsos or the Mixed Seafood in white sauce

 

[ACman]

Sushi and Sashimi, and lots of it. I mean lots, and lots, and lots. Even if it is not actually authentic(or technically chinese), I love sushi and sashimi.

That's not even close to being Chinese. People from China AND Japan would slap the shit out of you for even lumping them together. Japanese food is about clean and fresh subtle flavours and Chinese is everything from Northern Spicy Beef Hotpot to Dumplings to Red Roast Pork to Peking Duck to about fifty different regions.

I'd go for some Red Pork with lightly woked cabbage and some pickled vegetables. Or a northern Beef hot pot.

Sweet and Sour is my favorite, but the honey and ginger chicken is also good. I've been trying to branch out with Chinese food recently.

 

[Lizardon]

Everything that's not unbelievably spicy.
Garlic Prawns, Sweet and Sour Fish and Lemon Chicken/Duck are some of my favourites.

 

[kommando367]

Chicken on stick, wantons, shrimp, an eggroll, and a roll.

 

[saxxon.de]

The waitress.

 

[Joshimodo]

Dysentery.

 

[Pinstar]

General Tso's Chicken. I normally am not a fan of chicken in most contexts but this specific dish breaks that. I love it and get it every time. Mix it with a little brown rice. Mmm, heaven.

 

[MrCalypso]

Orange Chicken or Garlic and Chicken. It's the two things no restaurant can ever screw up.

 

[Fox242]

Lemon chicken, crunchy noodles, and white rice. Good stuff.

 

[Rawne1980]

Salt and Pepper ribs to start.

Chicken Foo Yung with Noodles for main.

 

[Vern]

Kung Pao Beef, General Tso's Chicken, or Orange Chicken. And damn it, this thread just made me really hungry for Chinese food. The weirdest thing is, there's a shitty place in the mall in town that makes better Orange Chicken than any sit down restaurant that I've ever eaten at. Guess I know what's for dinner tonight.

 

[Bucky01]

usually lemon chicken, beef and black bean noodles or sweet and sour pork, but most defiantly get deep fried ice-cream for dessert

 

[CrazyGirl17]

Either general's or honey chicken, depending on the place, white or fried rice, and spare ribs. Or beef & broccoli if I feel like it...

 

[SovietX]

The one and only.

Sweet and sour pork with special fried rice.

Cannot go wrong with that.

Just to be a perfect arse and point out I've never been to a chinese resturant, since they all claim to be, but are serving food from korea, japan, thailand and a few other places in and around asia, So, Asian resturant would make more sense.

But if theres Sushi, You'll find me there.

Well it's more of an insult (to yourself) to call yourself 'perfect' since it's a bad thing, than to call yourself an arse, but you're right.

'Chinese' restaurants don't serve real Chinese food.

I went all over China in the last 6 months and found much different food. I went to the west, to the east (got to find my way, all the way to One Piece!) and to the south of China. The food's much better there than in these expat restaurants.
