bruins4ever Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 Lo Mein is one of my all time favorite dishes (thick noodles). The place in our small town has surprisingly excellent Chinese food, and their Lo Mein dish is incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamlikesmusic Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 is the veggitarian/vegan chinese resturant a crazy cult?there was this place in portland, (don't rember the name off the top of my head) that had awesome vegan food. They had vegan shrimp/squid/fish/chicken/beef. it was absolutely mind blowing how good it was. The thing was they were part of this wierd cult, and had all this propaganda on the walls and on the tv. They called this one lady "Master" and talked about how people could communicate with animals by reading their thoughts, and how if the world didn't go vegan the world would die. They even gave us a book of the "Masters" teachings before we left. http://suprememastertv.com/ I've been watching that channel for like 45 minutes now. Fucked up shit happens to male baby chickens.

Guest eriathomas Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Sweet & Sour Chicken is the only thing that matters. This. I used to love General Tso's, but that shit gets nasty quick. I'll occasionally eat some chicken curry, but I can never go wrong with sweet and sour chicken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmythescumbag Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 General Tso's Chicken is the only thing that matters. This. I have been on a chicken w/broccoli and stemed rice kick recently, but I usually go back and forth with the General. Fried rice (sans vegetables) and egg rolls can also make or break a place for me.

mikeian Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 i tend to judge a chinese food place by general tso's in a different way. general tso's is an americanized-chinese food dish and i prefer the more authentic chinese places. i do enjoy it from time to time, but i prefer the chinese food that has non-battered meat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emiri Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 pf changs hot and sour soup is one of the best foods i have EVER had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoodcore Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Irvine, where I work, is a very ethnically Asian. There's a very culturally-accurate place I used to go to called Sam Woo. Oh man was it good and dirt cheap. Had full ducks hanging in the window and no personal space whatsoever in line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gojira Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I don't even bother with Chinese food as Houston has way too much good Vietnamese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
