Just wondering what all of your favourites are.

Mine has to be Beef with green pepper and black bean sauce and fried rice.

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.

mine is probably Beef with green pepper and black bean sauce and fried rice but i like to try something new every so often.

Repli

Anybody tried fried crab?

Bard

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

Zanza

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

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.

phreak

i had duck in plum sauce last night. mmmmm.

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.

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.

Thanx 4 The Fish

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
