What's Your Favorite Chinese Take-Out Food?

[Zandy595]

I was thinking about trying something different. I usually just get Chicken w/mixed veggies.

 

[powellrj]

I like generals chicken, lomein, hot and sour soup. sounds good!!

 

[kat3668]

cashew chicken and crab rangoon...YUM!

 

[MissMinnie]

Just had Chinese last night, yum!!! Our favorites are Egg Foo Young, General Tao's Chicken (spicy), Lo Mein, Beef and Broccoli, Roast Pork with Chinese Vegs, and those dishes where they combine several meats, chicken, and shrimp such as Happy Family or 4 Seasons. We usually order BBQ ribs from our place since they are so good. They vary from place to place so that is a trial and error item. Got to have mixed Wonton and Egg Drop soup and fried rice too. Ok, now I want more...........time to check the fridge for leftovers!!!

Mei Fun Singapore-I get my VERY spicy!!!!!!

 

[Zandy595]

Tell me about crab rangoon. I've always wanted to try it, but never really knew what it was.

What's in Mei Fun? I wouldn't get the spicy one.

I am addicted to chinese! Wont do take out though, it has to be the buffet

My favorites are general tso's chicken , black pepper chicken, oh gosh just everything, sometimes I have to reward the kids after a good week of school and we visit the hunan buffet...yum...oh and no cat either , they use the real meats

A crab rangoon is basically a wonton wrapped around a cream cheese/crab mixture filling, then deep fried. YUM!!!!!

I am a pretty basic girl, I like sweet and sour chicken, sesame chicken, and at Panda Express at the mall, Orange Chicken.

Im sure most of our chinese in iowa isnt real 'authentic' though.

Honestly, neither can I. But like I said, places I got to are not real authentic, I have never even actually tasted crab in them. There are a few places where I KNOW it is just cream cheese and nothing else, and some others that may have crab, but it is MICROSCOPIC peices. No big hunks here.

Man this thread is making me HUNGRY!

 

[mommytotwo]

Spicy mongolian beef

 

[Brianne]

Lemon or orange chicken. Or beef. Or both. With lots of rice.

Now I'm starving. Thanks a lot.

 

[Marseeya]

Chicken or veggie lo mein
Sesame cold noodles
Kung pao chicken or beef
Chicken fried rice
Shrimp w/lobster sauce


Not all at once, of course.

 

[OhMari]

I like the Garlic chicken and brocolli over white rice, I like the stir fried green beans and I like it when they make a seafood mixture-crab, shrimp and vegies over rice too.

I try not to eat to much white rice, I am actually trying to not eat it at all, just the buffet items.

 

[Lynn CC]

spinich and egg drop soup, they make it up special for me

 

[florida-again]

I wonder if my favourites are different to stuff you can get in US takeouts:

I always get chips (fries) with curry sauce to dip, chow mein (noodles), prawn toast and crabmeat and sweetcorn soup....

Yummy.....

 

[Madaboutthemouse]

I love Moo Goo Gai Pan (Chicken with veggies in a white sauce) and DH gets Empress Chicken (fried chicken pieces with veggies in a spicy BBQ-ish sauce) MMMMMM!!!!!!!!
Egg Drop or Hot and Sour Soup and Crab Rangoons complete the meal!
