It is. I used to work in a Safeway deli that had a chinese food part - all the chicken looked like that in OP's pic before they put sauce on it. And it tasted like ass without the sauce.

i didn't realize how much effort went into a good chinese. this dude actually sits and peels the black lines (intestine?) off the back of the prawns one by one with a knife and his dad spends all day prepping stuff..

Some chinese restaurants I've been to in London (usually mid-tier ones) seem to have 2 different menus - the official menu for British and tourists and an unofficial, more authentic one for Chinese diners.

chinese/chip shop food in the uk is some of the greatest stuff known to man.

My personal favourite from my local is chips, peas, gravy, curry sauce and salt and pepper shredded chicken.

literally the most unhealthy thing I can eat, but it tastes delicious

I like this, too, though I can't cook it. Dunno what's in the sauce. Can't figure it out. I make a damned good chicken dry pot, though. Rabbit dry pot is better, IMO.

I'm also white. though from Europe (I'm guessing you're American, but I could be wrong). To me, it seems like the French and the Brits (and, consequently, all their egg-eating colonies/former colonies) undercook sunny-side-up eggs. Most German-speaking people (such as Swiss and Austrians) seem to like them a little browned and crisp on the bottom but with French, Brits and most areas under their sphere of influence, that's like a mortal sin.
