My go to when at a Chinese restaurant is very simple and effective: Honey Garlic spare ribs, almond guy ding and chicken fried rice.
When at the food court fast food Chinese chain: Honey crispy chicken with Lo mein noodles and broccolis.
I do enjoy some general Tao but will only eat if someone else orders as I don’t love it enough.
What’s yours?
Or as the Chinese call it, food.

Anyway. I love Mu Shu Pork. That's a Chinese burrito.
Plus, I always get the Won Ton Soup.
Ma Pu Bean Curd, that's hot tofu with ground pork.
Oh, Kung Pao Chicken
Pot Stickers as an appetizer.
I feel like Westernized Chinese food is just a money making scheme because thats not what they eat in China. My first job as a teenager was at a gift shop owned my a Chinese family. They ate the SAME thing every day...White rice, vegetables and a protein. After the meal was a shot of fish oil, which she called "whiskey" lol.
With that said, I'll eat it maybe once a year and like Chowmein, egg rolls, dumplings and those fluffy battered chicken fingers.
Egg foo young
Salt and pepper shrimp
Hot sour soup
I only like "American Chinese" food. I've been to a legit Chinese wedding and a legit Chinese funeral reception, and I did not care for it. I've done dimsum in Monterey Park (L.A.) and that food was good.
