    In a good Chinese restaurant:
    Shredded duck with pancakes and Hoi Sin sauce...
    mmm.... Duck'a'licious...

    To Cook:
    Delectable Chinese Garlic Pork....
    From a recipe in one of Ken Hom's books...

    From a take-away:
    Sweet and Sour Chicken - Cantonese Style.

    Chicken Curry. No onions. No peas. Fried rice. Spring Rolls. Prawns. Beer. YES.

    I don't know what's it called, but all I know that it's rice with some vegetables :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,846 ✭✭✭✭eth0_


    Embarrasing I know but it's got to be the three in one, the ultimate comfort food!
    Failing that, veg in black bean sauce with noodles and fried rice. Mmm.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,216 ✭✭✭phreak


    i had duck in plum sauce last night. mmmmm. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,634 ✭✭✭Kolodny


    Anything with ginger and spring onion sauce. Such a good combination of flavours.

    Vegetable fried rice. Still rarely seen on menus (but most will do it for you if you ask nicely). Some places do a delicious one, others do awful ones. You can usually get an idea of what it'll be like by the quality of their other fried rice dishes.

    Sweet & Sour toufu. Toufu tastes like wallpaper, but mix it with sweet & sour sauce and fried rice and suddenly it becomes delicious. Again, quality varies from place to place.

    In a restaurant: Yuk Sung. The best starter ever invented. If haven't tried or heard of this, then do it now, you won't regret it. It was the only regret I ever had turning veggie :). But then I found pings in Stillorgan (very expensive, but very good chinese) do a veggie version that's almost indistinguishable. nyom. :)

    Sweet and Sour Chicken, as already stated Cantonese style, egg fwied wice and Tiger beer from the Offo, straight from Singapore, as well as being a nice drink on it's own it goes down great with a Chinese. And a sexy Chinese girl to spoon feed me the scoff :p

    Mine would be Crispy shredded chicken in chilli sauce with fried rice.

    for start I would have Crispy duck with pancakes in Hoi Sin Sauce.

    For take away Sweet and sour chicken.

    To make at home I would make myself either Beef Curry or some kind of stir fry

  • Registered Users Posts: 785 ✭✭✭zenith


    Crispy Beef in Peking Sauce. Little strips of beef battered, fried and covered in a sweet sauce. Whoohoo!

    I used to like Black Bean Sauce, but our local can't decide what consistency to make it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 448 ✭✭Chowmein


    Duck in Plum sauce or Prawn chow mein for me ;)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 583 ✭✭✭^CwAzY^


    I never tried the duck, but I think sweet & sour pork is delicious.


  • Registered Users Posts: 326 ✭✭schrodinger


    Chicken and Ginger with Spring onion, fried rice - made extra hot and extra extra spicy. mmmmmmm........something


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,055 ✭✭✭suppafly


    Haven't been to a chinese resturant in a good while. Usually just get take away, and that would be a beef curry with fried rice, and a couple a chips to go with it, is well nice. When i was in California we used to go up to San Fran, and into chinatown for lunch sometimes. I think I used to get mongolian beef and fried rice, really good. Had some other really nice dish too but can't remember it, it was well nice though! They had a couple of all u can eat chinese gaffs too, deadly!! Too bad theres no here:confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,379 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    chicken with hot garlic sauce and fried noodles.


    curry is an indian dish!
    most people i know only ever get chicken curry fried rice and call that "a chinese" for short.

    like calling a pizza "a french"


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,683 ✭✭✭daveg
