So . . . it's the year of the Monkey if I'm not mistaken. Lay down that boogey.
I was in the mall not too long ago, and the Chinese restaraunt next to the music store was having a fucking hodown. They were going all out, man; they had the drums going, a bunch of guys dancing around under one of those huge paper dragons... It was neat. I mean, it's not very often you get people dancing with paper, mythical creatures on their heads just BEGGING you to make fun of them.
I came for the boneless spare ribs, I stayed waiting for someone to trip the dragon's head.
Boneless spare ribs are so awesome.
*drools*
Egg rolls>Boneless spare ribs
and thats saying a lot, as I loves me some spare ribs.
Dude. No you didn't. I mean, I love egg rolls as much as the next guy, but come on! They're not a real meal.
Hot and Sour Soup and Lomein Noodles are the best !

Duck with Garlic Sauce...lots of bones to pick through though.
pepper steak or beef and broccoli for me. the ubiquitous brown sauce gives my sphincter POWER!

little chinese secret... it ain't pork or chicken, but a fat siamese.
Yeah, I know I'm late, but you know what they say.Quote:

A local Asian restaurant had a Chinese New Year's festival that I had gone to on the 26th. The buffet had sushi (mostly California rolls), shrimp toast, teriyaki, and spring rolls (these things totally own egg rolls) for appetizers. Several dinners including General Tso's chicken and a seafood vegetable combination were also on the table.
The CNY show was a blast- a martial arts studio held kung-fu and weapons demos- and yes, the dragons came out. Damn cool if you ask me.
What's the big deal with General Tso's Chicken? Is it really that good?
In a word, yes. And Szechuan Hot and Sour Soup owns my soul.
Just make sure you get it spicy for the full "bam!". Don't order it mild.Quote:

good lord.....you need more choices. your average china take out place will run circles around that panda shit.

I have no idea how to pronounce it or spell it, but chow-kwai-tau (or something. I just point at the board) shits on all.

There are plenty of Chinese take-out places around here. As a matter of fact, that where I got the General Tso's: Grand East Buffet. I just like the Orange Chicken at Panda. If I'm in the mood for anything else, I hit up Grand East because it's the best in the area. The only thing I get at Panda is the Orange Chicken.Quote:

The best chinese food I've had was when I visited California. God damn was that shit good. Get like 4 plates of stuff and just go to town. It might be like 10 bucks a dish, but you get a ton of food.
