Got the bejing beef and some orange chicken with the chow mein tonight.

Sweet and Sour chicken if I never ate at the place before.

But if I have been there a few times I always try their Mongolian beef or their General Tso chicken to see if they are any good.

quarter cup of oatmeal

>>12051815
Any of those cheap Chinese places that have the same menu that use garish clip art from the 90s. You can get 2-3 meals out of it for cheap.

>>12051815
gen tso or mongolian beef with a shrimp spring roll. dont get it too often though

>>12051815
pie and mash.

>>12051815
Actual Chinese or "American" Chinese?

>>12051844
American

>>12051844
What's the difference. That's not a question.

>>12051815
hunan beef
vegetable chow mein
rice

I can make that last 3 meals.

pick your combo, boys. for me, it's the no. 2

>>12051858
please tell me this is a joke

>>12051878
no 26 but if i was drunk and i migt go for the no 9 which is my favorite number and i want to find out what the fuck a marco polos delight is

>>12051878

>>12051878
i want to search for the lost menu items No. 12-24

>>12051815
Orange beef
Special wonton soup
Sometimes chicken wings

>>12051815
General Tso chicken with broccoli, rice, and an eggroll with a side of veggie Lo Mein.

>>12051815
Chicken and vegetables with a white garlic sauce. Too bad most places don't serve it.

>>12051886
Might be a regional menu item, but it's diced beef spareribs, shrimp, and snow peas in lobster sauce, served over fried noodles.

so yeah a solid drunk order choice

Honey Chicken, but I tend to over-indulge on the Honey Chicken and end up getting sick from all the sweetness.

BUT! I figured out that when I eat Honey Chicken with French Fries, the French Fries cancel out the negative effects of the sweetness, and so i can keep eating longer.

>>12051927
>>12051927
interesting sounds pretty good. im having some gin and soda later tonight and i doubt that would go well with chinese but maybe later this week ill order some

>>12051846
orange chicken, but i dislike the broccoli with that sauce on it, so probably get broccoli beef as well and it'll last a week or so

>>12051931
lol

>>12051815
>eating mystery (dog) meat

>>12051858
One is dogs, cats, other pets fried in oil filtered out of the sewer, the other is from America.

>beef lo mein
>general tso's or orange chicken
>egg roll
>those weird crunchy fries
Also someone told me those were the least healthy things on the menu

>>12051815
zhajiangmian, xiaolongbao, wonton, chashao, fresh soymilk. All vegan

I prefer the chicks over food though tbqf

>>12051946
dog is kind of good though. I love dogs but when I was in China I tried it and it was pretty tasty ngl.

>>12051971
Just don't eat animals, no bad food, problem solved

>>12051815
Gen. Tsos. chicken

If the place doesn't have bourbon chicken it's garbage and I don't bother ordering anything

Pork lo mein and bourbon chicken.

>>12051815
Tjap Tjoi beef, Chinese veggies in sauce with beef. And Wonton soup. I am not adventurous enough to try anything else.

boneless spareribs
pork fried rice
fried dumplings
crab rangoon
egg roll
fried chicken

>>12051970
heard of cream cheese wontons, but what the FUCK is zhajiangmain and xialobao? cashao? WHAT THE FUCK is this shit

>>12051878
35, everything else is straight icky

>>12052058
mmm If I had to describe it, I think zhajiangmain is noodles fried in bean sauce. Xiaolongbao is just bao but made in a xiaolong

>>12052058
chashao is just the normal unaccented pinyin of "char siu", something you might be more familiar with but me personally I don't like Cantonese spelling

>>12052089
>pinyin
>char siu
>cantonese
what the fuck

Hot and sour soup plus Moo Shu chicken or pork.

Orange/General Tso chicken babies should off themselves for having such pleb tastebuds.

Curried chicken fried rice if they have it.

Hunan chicken,

Roast pork with chinese vegitables.

Basically a really spicy vegetable heavy stir fry.

Beef chop suey.

Regular pork fried rice.

I always order everything extra spicy. I love it when they red pepper the shit out of everything.

Peking duck and moo shu pork get an honorable mention.

>>12052122
>eats food well beyond his own body temperature to cover up for oily and somewhat gross taste
>"other people have plebain taste buds"

Its really hard to mess up sweet and sour chicken, that is why its my goto most of the time unless I know that the place has good cooks.

I had a favorite Chinese place that was ran by an old guy and he died and now the food there sucks.

They used to have the best General Tso chicken I ever had and now they have the worst general tso chicken.

>>12052122
>Orange/General Tso chicken babies should off themselves for having such pleb tastebuds.

I hate most peoples General Tso chicken because they suck at making it.

I have had good version and I know what to look for in the sauce. I can make it myself at home.

Veggie lo mein, steamed dumplings, hot and sour soup

>>12051878

Boneless spare ribs, general tso's chicken, sesame chicken, pork dumplings, egg rolls.

>>12051815
I've never eaten chinese food, but tomorrow im going with the family for the first time, any recomendations on what to order?

>>12052709

>>12051815
Usually either a chicken fried rice or Singapore fried rice.
Sometimes Malaysian style Singapore noodles.
Sometimes Chinese beef curry with chilli garlic rice.

I always get 8 vegetarian fried dumplings with hot sauce, because they're so fucking tasty.

sesame chicken and crab rangoon or fried wontons

For me its the teriyaki bowl from jack in the box with a side of eggrolls and 3 sweet and sour sauces.

shrimp loa mein with $3 extra shrimp, spicy, and an order of pot stickers

>>12051844
Ah, a fellow connoisseur of AUTHENTIC Chinese including fried bugs, grilled dog and little boys' pee boiled eggs

Pork fried rice
beef cow mein
broccoli beef
egg rolls
bbq pork

I have never even seen a chinese takeout place in my life

>>12054725

I wonder what the Chinese would call Chinese takeout places, considering to them Chinese food is just normal food.

>>12051815
Genny chos, bourbon chicken, steamed dumplings, extra rice, extra dumpling sauce

>>12051815
Orange chicken fried rice spring/egg rolls

pretty fuckin basic

Teriyaki chicken skewers
Pork fried rice
Sweet and sour chicken, no sauce
Egg roll

>>12051878
Gau wasn't the General, that was Leo

I use orange chicken as a litmus test. If a place can't get dish right then chances are the rest of the menu is also shit.

meat:
general tso, sweet & sour chicken, or orange chicken
side:
deep fried rice or lo mein noodles

>>12054958
obviously meant pork fried rice
also forgot about sesame chicken

>>12051878
>chicken fingers

Ok. This menu is DEFINITELY from New England.

I fucking love Chicken fingers and miss them.

>>12051815
doodoo plater as long as it has the right things. I don't like plain breaded fried wings so I don't get it when it has those

>>12051815
General Tso's chicken with the side is fried rice. Pork.
If I'm feeling snappy, also Pork Lo-Mein.

Eat a little of the chicken/rice and Lo-Mein and repeat for 3-4 days until consumed. They do stuff those to-go boxes pretty well; one decent thing that they do right.

Nice-u spread

>>12051815
I usually get the Mongolian chicken ,pork or beef and the house fried rice.

I usually go for the red braised pig's feet myself

not fan of "chinese take" out I'm more a siu mei guy so char sui with duck/goose/squid/white chicken chinese broccoli w/ oyster sauce and rice

two hong kong meat buns(tuna or pork) with milk tea is another common meal they're 1-2$ each and rather big

Sauteed pork liver with serranos, garlic and ginger, white rice and lobster sauce

>>12051815
general tso's an order of lo mein and egg rolls all the way

>>12051815
Fried rice and Kung Pao chicken
maybe some sweet and sour pork

>>12051815
If panda express: 2 sides of Beijing beef, 1-2 Honey Walnut shrimp, fried rice, cheese ragoons.

Any other hole in the wall Chink place: Don't want fried rat so I go with the sweet and sour shrimp with crab ragoons.

i do not know, i have never had any chinese takeout. luckily there is a chinese restaurant in my city, i shall go there and have takeout for three days on friday.

>>12051815
I don't like to eat worthless oil that causes postprandial angina, so I never get that stuff, even when someone else offers to buy.

>yfw

I always get the orange chicken, lo mein w/ vegetables, and egg rolls.

>>12051815
fish n chips

If they have it like a sizzling twice cooked pork in a spicy black bean sauce with white rice. It's a fucking ummami BOMB

>>12051948
The joke works better when the first part sounds like you're describing the second

Beef Chow Fun is usually what I get, with some hot and sour soup.

trolls haven't tried on this website for years anon

Can someone tell me how i make these noodles in the op? Ive looked around but the only thing i could find is it https://www.recipetineats.com/real-chinese-purpose-stir-fry-sauce/.. It tastes good but its not the same as these takeout noodles. How do i make those?

>>12051815
Anything without water chestnuts or bean sprouts!!Fact!!

>>12051858
I've been to a fairly authentic Chinese restaurant in California before and they have a lot more to offer than just what a typical stuff you get at regular American Chinese fast-food. They still had lots of those well known dishes there, but seeing other people's meals while walking through the restaurant, they seemed way more authentic and let fast food like. I had boiled peanuts and some sort of black mushroom fungus dish. Everything pretty much had bones in it which is annoying. A lot of veggie and "fungus" dishes. Also lots of pickled stuff. Tonight I will be ordering generic American Chinese fast food, but I would definitely go back to the more authentic place sometimes if it were nearby.

>>12051815
Lemme get one order of beef broccoli, one order of sweet-and-sour chicken with the sauce on the side, crab rangoons, egg drop soup, and white rice. Yall want anything?

>>12058364
It's troubling you're calling them "those noodles" instead of lo-mein, so maybe just googling how to make lo-mein. Like most restaurant food you can make a version of it but it won't quite taste the same unless you use the right sauce ingredients like oyster, apple cider vinegar, good soy etc.

>>12052084
I fucking love me some bean sauce, saving this for later

Orange chicken and honey walnut shrimp

>>12051815

>>12051815
Crispy chicken in peking sauce, egg fried rice and prawn toast
>>12051878
No. 8 I guess

>>12063011
It's good on fried stuff like spring rolls, egg rolls, crab rangoons, also stuff like chicken on a stick, dumplings, usually appetisers. I prefer Colman's or S&B though instead of the packets.

>>12051815
meat, fried, covered in some kind of dark semi-tangy sauce

dont really care for much else

I wait for everyone to order and then I try to even it out, so if nobody has anything spicy I'll get a Kung pao or General Tso, If nobody got any thai-fusiony stuff I'll get a basil chicken or a curry, or if nobody got a fried nugget type of thing I'll get orange or sesame chicken.
I've never really had Chinese by myself, because of family tradition I think of it as a big meal you should share with a minimum of five people.

>>12051878
NO 28 sounds good

>>12051815
Just a small order of the house special fried rice

>>12051815
Fried noodles, hefty load of fired veg then some breaded chicken.

>>12051815
half fried chicken with pork fried rice. douse with sriratcha and it's reeeal good

I don't even know anymore. I just recently discovered the two best Chinese places I've ever had thanks to a group of Taiwanese Christians I've fallen in with and I haven't had a chance to figure out what items are my go-tos yet. Everything is still new and wondrous.

Crispy walnut shrimp
Singapore Mei fun
Steamed dumplings
Shrimp toast

>>12060888
i did look up these terms, that sauce i linked is for lo mein/chow mein. i looked at many different recipes and its mostly just soy sauce, oyster sauce, chinese wine, sugar. but i tried that and even though it tastes good it tastes completely different than takeout noodles. Not just not as good but like its a completely different thing. So is that in the op just regular ass lo mein noodles? Do they use some specific flavor enhancer or soy sauce? Thats what i want to know.

beef and broccoli

>>12065099
Grab yourself a Taiwanese Christian wife and you’ll never have to worry about food ever again.

>>12051815
I try to get something new every time.

>>12067219
Yup those are just your standard lo-mein take out noodles, and yeah like I said I've had similar difficulty nailing the same taste you get from a restaurant for some dishes. Might be the ingredients they use could be cooking equipment like for stir fry they have industrial watts with way higher BTU flame than you can ever get in your kitchen at home to cook the food in a flash.

I assume you bought some prepackaged noodles, what kind? What tasted different to you, the noodles or the sauce? MSG is the secret ingredient in a lot of US chinese too.

>>12067336
i bought prepackaged noodles, first some that just said quick cooking noodles and then some that said lo mein noodles. Theyre both fine but i dont get the consistency and texture of the takeout noodles and i cant compare the noodles themselves without the sauce because takeout is always with sauce on it already. But yea it might be related to the equipment. My sauce also makes the noodles a lot darker. I use all purpose soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce and chinese wine mostly but as i said it doesnt taste bad, just like something completely different. Im in Europa so i dont know about msg, but it could be possible they put some enhancer in there.

>>12051815

Kkanpoonggi, Korean-ized Chinese food in South Korea.

That feeling when 90% of South Korea's Chinese food is from northern China, not southern China.

>>12067413
MSG is straight enhancer. Laboratory grade umami.

>>12069511
this guy knows

>>12069534
Well yeah, the korean peninsula is right next to northern china, so that's obvious.

>>12051815
If it's a restaurant that I've never tried before, I would order some combination of:

Crab Rangoon
Kung Pao Chicken
Egg drop soup
Pork or Chicken fried rice

If the place is any decent, I'll try out their other stuff.

>>12051815
Fried Rice and Broccoli Beef, extra broccoli. Sometimes i get some Spring rolls and plum sauce.

Chinese you say?
Authentic Szechuan cumin lamb, and it better have those peppercorns in it, too.

If the place serves Sichuan, DanDan Noodles. Otherwise, probably fried rice and beef with broccoli. This Chinese restaraunt I used to live near had great spicy shrimp as well

>>12051815
beef chowmein, bbq spare ribs, chips, broccoli

>>12051815
One I go to is a sitdown and I've long since preferred getting the lunch special than ordering it to go. The fried rice is the best part, fresh and flame-kissed so it has a savory burnt hidden flavor, but putting it in a box and letting it sit for even a few minutes makes it lose it entirely.

Mandatory: Hot and Sour Soup.
Ginger Beef or salt and pepper pork if they have it on the menu. Otherwise I try something different each time because being picky with Americanized Chinese food is a joke.
Side of fried rice or steamed rice depending on the main dish.

Also if you go our for chinese with a group of people, a large order of Mu Shu pork to share makes a great appetizer.

>>12067526

I think that's prawn crackers, those are awesome wth hot mustard.

>>12073803
There was a time in NYC where every Chinese restraunt had those multi colored prawn crackers on the table to munch on while folk decided what to order from the menu. That doesn't happen anymore. Now it's just cheap shit leftovers from others, it became pathetic.

>>12073807

Plus my free egg roll, usually lasts me 3-4 days if that's all I eat.

Hwen I feel like getting something different
>boneless spare ribs
>French fries (with tons of duck sauce to throw on em)
>friend chicken

Sometimes I'll deviate and get Orange Chicken, Lemon Chicken, Sweet and Sour or Sesame chicken instead of General Tsos. If the restaurant is real based, I'll get Pork Buns too, but usually they don't have em. The Chinese place I grew up on still remembers me and always welcomes me, Chinese know business well. Bug people, but they're good bug people sometimes.
I've also never had good Chinese food outside of NYC.

I hope that the sauce is on the side for things like the fried wontons so they don't get soggy.

Now here's a plate that makes me hungry.
All it needs is some Colman's or S&B hot mustard.

For regular fried wontons the sweet and sour sauce is in the side to dip or pour.
The dipped wontons get no sauce and have a garlic dip all black.

I've been to a lot of Chinese restaurants and have never seen that garlic dip varient for wontons. Not even on traditional menus. Maybe it's a regional thing from where you're from?

In NYC it's hard to find. I only knew 2 restaurants out of over a dozen that had it. Some restaurants will also have Szechuan wontons which is a steamed wonton in garlic sauce. Another restaurant I went to had garlic sauce version of General Tsos that beat the sweeter flavor that was pretty much every where else. Same goes for the rarity of the pork buns.

I'm from NYC too but have never seen that, and I used to go to Chinatown in Manhattan on Saturday or Sunday and just go to random dimsum places with my girlfriend. I don't do that so much anymore since it's not as much fun alone. The trick to finding good ones is go to the ones filled with Chinese folk, those will be the best. You get those trolly girls bringing stuff out with the bingo cards to mark the orders.
Good times were had by all.

I live in Queens, I think I only went to Manhattan for a pork bun place and a few other restaurants.

Not even close.
Egg noodles? check, Meat and Vegetables? check, Herbs, oils, sauces and spices? All different
It is originally Indo/Malay but every Chinese takeout makes Bami Goreng and Nasi Goreng so it's my go-to Chinese takeout order.

ah yes, i love the rat on a stick

general tsos and some goons

Usually just make my own:

HONEY GARLIC PORK

pork chop or shoulder steak, sliced thin

wheat flour, cornstarch or potato starch

minced garlic

grated fresh ginger

water or stock

soy sauce

Chinese rice wine

honey

toasted sesame seeds

Season pork with salt and pepper, dredge in flour or starch. Fry in a small pan until golden and crispy. Remove pork from pan and discard most of the oil. In the still-hot pan, add garlic and ginger and stir until fragrant. Add water or stock, soy sauce, and honey and cook for a few minutes. Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl and add to the pan along with the reserved pork. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve over rice.
