Ok so I had some chinese take out last night and I got this fortune cookie that said this and I want to know what comes to your mind when I say-
"Good things come to people who wait."|||I always took this to mean.
Things that come too easily are usually not that appreciated.
You have to be willing to put in the work to get to the good things, whether that is your dream job/education, house, car, partner.
L|||i'm a very patient person and i actually kind of live by that saying. Has it ever worked? well...sort of. When it says wait it can really mean WAIT like a long long time, like months or even years. But there are times when it works sooner than later =)|||You don't need a boyfriend just to have a boyfriend.
You have to kiss a lot of toads before you find your frog.
Someday my Prince will come.
Stuff like that.|||Just wait one hour and you'll be hungry again. You can eat more of their good Chinese food.|||If you wait and then the Universe will deliver good things to you. But remember that you must give good things also...|||Patience will always be rewarded.|||Standing in line for a great ride at a themepark.|||Have patience and good things are bound to happen :)|||Don't rush things in your life.|||be patient|||be patient with what you do

Give me a fish-sauce recipe.
I want a recipe for fish-sauce that i can make. I smelled the stuff, and it smells like fish-food (i side-by-side compared it to the "nutriplex beta food" which I feed my tiny fish whom i named donnie darko.
Also, please read my "recipe request" for fried-rice as made by "chinese take out stores".
Also, I am an Aries if that helps.
NOTE--ALL RECIPES ARE INCLUDED FOR MEDIUM-GRAIN RICE, BECAUSE I'M TRYING TO EXPLORE A NEW DIMENSION OF RICE.
Fish sauce, is the boss. Please make me think this way. Because my current paradigm is "fish sauce is not hot sauce".
Also read my other question about becoming a co-doctor.|||It's nice to see that you are incorporating so many questions in one posting, sure saves the points huh? Ok how about this:
THAI BARBEQUED CHICKEN
2 whole young chickens
4 stalks fresh lemon grass
1 tbsp. coarsely chopped fresh ginger
1 oz. garlic, finely chopped (about 6 lg. cloves)
4 shallots
1/2 c. coarsely chopped parsley roots

2 tbsp. fish sauce
2 tbsp. soy sauce
2 tbsp. oil
Hot sticky rice
GARNISH:
Chinese parsley, cut into 2-inch lengths
Red chili peppers (optional)
Rinse chickens and pat dry. Split chickens down the breast, but do not cut all the way through; press open. Place chickens in a large bowl. In a food processor or blender combine lemon grass, ginger, garlic, shallots, parsley roots, brown sugar, coconut milk, fish sauce, soy sauce and oil; blend until smooth.
Pour sauce over chickens and marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place chickens on a rack in an open pan with the split side down. Bake for about 1 hour, depending on the thickness of the chicken, or until the juices run clear when the thigh is pierced with a sharp knife. Serve with hot sticky rice. Garnish with Chinese parsley and red chili peppers. Makes 4-6 servings.
THAI CHINESE STYLE NOODLES
2 chicken breasts or equivalent of beef, cut into flat strips (use minute

Add sauces (fish, oyster, and soy) and about 1 tablespoon of water, cover and simmer while noodles cook. When noodles are done, add to mixture and serve.|||Dude, put the pipe down!|||actually hoisin sauce is a raisin sauce, a little spicy actually but good.( Ps I don't like raisins but i like the sauce.|||Vietnamese Beef Curry (Serves 4-6)

I eat out way too much, Burger King, KFC, Chinese take out, buffet...I guess I believe I am not much of a cook, however I am turning a new leaf.
Please tell me, do you have any cooking ideas that are not overly complex and is very reasonably priced (and taste good).
...thank you for your help in this matter.|||Umm.. I'm not sure if your wanting to cook healthy home cooked meals, or just homecooked meals?. But whatever it shall be.. Just expirement, you'll never know if you like something unless you try it. Some may turn out horrible, but some, so tasty! So thats why, you expirement in the kitchen. I cant really give you any recipies because I not sure what type of food you like, But you can visit these websites..|||A lot of the prepared freezer meals are tastey and well priced. Check out the freezer section at your grocery store - you can find lasagne, ravioli, panini sandwhiches, chinese, personal pizzas, mexican and more. They usually take less than 5 minutes to cook in the microwave and cost anywhere from $1 - $5 in the store.
Some more "home made" options might be spaghetti - boil some spaghetti noodles and top with a jar of pasta sauce or alfredo sauce and cheese. If you are feeling especially ambitious - add some meatballs (buy the premade bags of them from the grocery store).
My brother is a bachelor in the air force and swears that Hormel Chilli (canned) can top anything (noodles, chips, hotdogs - whatever) and he always keeps a bag of frozen tator tots on hand, too. Those you just put on a cookie sheet and bake according to the package.
Other simple and inexpensive meals might be pre-cooked bratworst (by Johnsonville) - pop in the microwave and put on a bun; frozen ravioli - found in the freezer section - just boil until they float and add in some frozen broccoli and a jar of alfredo sauce by Ragu. Grilled cheese is super easy, too. How about canned soup - progresso and cambells make some good ones; kraft easy mac, etc.
Consider picking up a quesadilla maker from target (under $20). Keep it on your counter and buy some tortillas - you can top quesadillas with absolutely anything - even peanut butter and jelly - and it takes only a couple of minutes to grab whatever you have in the fridge and throw it all together for an easy, cheap, filling snack or meal.
Hope this helps some.|||bEANS|||Mac and cheese, add hot dogs, veggie dogs are what I add.
Sloppy joes are easy
You can buy cheap canned spaghetti sauce and add your own meat if you need it, and that can go over noodles. Or my ex husband loved when I used that to make a meatloaf, also easy.
Alfredo sauce is real easy even though it doesn't seem like it would be.
Mashed taters are real easy as well.|||Smithfield, Hormel, Armour have packages of PRE-COOKED beef tips, roast, pot roast, pork roast, chicken, ham, meatload. Use this for your meat dish with a side dish or two of vegetables, rice, or potatoes. You will find these packages near the meat section, they are not frozen.
Tyson's fully cooked whole chickens are delicious. I serve them often with S&W canned sweet potatoes, Stove-Top dressing, microwave chicken/turkey gravy, a vegetable, cranberry sauce, and Pillsbury Microwave Biscuits which are better than I can make. A frozen pie defrosted and fully cooked. Perfect for one or two people at Thanksgiving or Christmas.
`````````````````````
You can buy a roasted chicken or two at your supermarket's deli section. They also have all types of salads and vegetables already cooked.
Another thing you can do is cook in a slow cooker or a crock-pot. You put the meat meal into the crock-pot in the morning and it cooks all day long. The meal is ready at dinner time. Be sure to read the booklet that comes with the crock-pot. Here are some recipes for you:

My friend was visiting me recently. While she was visiting, my parents bought some Chinese take out and we all ate it at my grandmother's house. Later, she astonished me by asking for my parents and grandmother's address so she could send thank you cards to both.
I'm just wondering if anyone else does this. I would just say thank you in person and leave it at that.|||no a simple thank you for your hospitality will suffice the days of Victorian etiquette are long gone|||Let her know her goodie goodie-ness embarrass you - notwithstanding it was to please an older member of your own family.

Then in Without a Trace, Danny said to Martin (who's eating Chinese take outs) , "Why are you eating that stuff in the morning? That's gross!" (or something like that).. So is this how general Westerners feel towards Chinese food? If so, why?
|||Those statements don't necessarily have anything to do with the food, but rather sociological roles of the wife in some western culture and the time of day that it was being eaten.

I had Chinese take out tonight.

The veggies were mostly broccoli, with some baby pea pods, water chestnuts, baby corn, mushrooms, and carrots. I couldn't tell if the chicken was fatty or if it was because it was steamed, but it wasn't tender. Thanks all helps|||Chicken without any sauce, and not cooked in oil runs about 120 cals per 4 oz.

Breakfast is a cup of really good coffee, generally Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. I like it black =)
Lunch is a small salad and/or an avocado with salt and pepper (depending on how hungry I am).

Buy this stuff at the grocery or at the web site. Put your chicken in a pan pour this sauce on it. Put in refrigerator 4 hours. Grill or saute up your chicken adds some veggies and rice. Boom better than the mall. You try it I get top answer my bet.
some days i'll feel fresh, pretty, and ready to go. and other days, like today, i feel so ugly and unworthy that i'll actually cancel plans, stay home and eat chinese take out all night...the all my friends having boyfriends and a boy never even liking me thing might be adding to the effect, too.
any ideas as to why we feel like this?|||I know exactley what you mean , i have days like that to . Especially when I see other gorgeous girls all over tv and the media and even around town everyone always seems to be living easier and so much more prettier than me. So i get depressed and feel like im not even worth it . . But you know what dont worry there will be a guy out there first of all, and just becasue you may see all your friends with all the players who just want a one night stand doesnt mean you wont find your perfect guy who will be better then those losers and love you on your pretty, and not so pretty days . So just sit back , relax and maybe treat yourself to an at home spa to make yourself feel more prettier and refreshed ! :)|||OMG WE ARE LIKE TWINS!!
i'm exactly the same, some days i feel really pretty, other days i think i'm really ugly. AND LOADS OF MY FRIENDS HAVE BF'S AND A BOY HAS NEVER EVEN LIKED ME!! Maybe it's not as common as we all think?
I'm sure we will both find someone in our own time, relax everyone feels good and bad at different times, and lots of people have bf's late (including me, still to have my first, i'm 14 btw)
hope i helped, x x|||cuz looked twice at the mirror. What i mean is that the first time you looked in the mirror was to make sure that your outfit was okay (no wrinkles on ur shirts, no stain on your pants, nothing on your teeth. stuff like this) But then you looked again.. and you thought about what was wrong with! =(
Those days happen to me too. but i never take it drastically to canceling plans and staying at home and eat chinese food. I try adding something to make me feel pretty such as lip gloss or something like that =)

Sometimes I feel really pretty, beautiful even... then I have my days when I feel like the ugliest creature and I wanna hide my face and not leave the house..|||Yup. Pretty much everyday.

My friend is diabetic and she eats Chinese food all the time. I was wondering how bad this is for her and if anyone knows the average nurtitional info of an order of beef and broccoli w/ rice and all? It is a lot of food in one of those Chinese take out containers.|||Diabetics can and should eat broccoli. We can also eat all the meat that we want. Our goal is to NOT eat sugar and CARBS.
If your friend eats "white" rice, tell her to stop eating it. She should not eat anything white no matter what it is. She could maybe have 1/4 cup of brown rice, but that's all.
She should not eat the gravy on the meat and broccoli either - it has carbs and sugar in it.
I lost 40 pounds by not eating carbs and sugar.|||That is not something a diabetic should be eating...too much sugar in it!|||it really depends on what's added to the beef & broccoli as far as sauces and seasonings. that's where the real trouble lies. eating beef and other red meats more than once a week really isn't the greatest for you either. with her being diabetic, high sodium or sugar content of anything isn't good for her. rice is high in starch and carbs which are mainly sugars and little fiber. most american thinese food is high in sodium and sugar from the sauces that are loaded with soy sauce, corn starch, and sugar or corn syrup. eaten in high quantities this is not good for her.|||Chinese food is all wok fried... therefore there is a lot of oil in it... But, if she likes it, she likes it...|||Traditional Chinese foods (not the take-out kind) can be truly healthy, without the MSG and all the oil. Tell your friend to choose healthier Chinese options such as vegetable stir-fry (just make sure the veggies are half-cooked and with very little oil), fish and chicken breasts. If she's diabetic, she should really cut down on the rice (it's all carbs). Beef and broccoli's OK as long as it's eaten in moderation - too much of anything is bad.|||it isnt|||Yeah, that's pretty fattening. I don't know the exact calorie count, but I would guess around 700-800. If she still wants to eat Chinese-American food, then she should have her food steamed or stir-fried with the sauce on the side. That way, she can just lightly dip the veggies and meat in the sauce and it wouldn't be as fatty.|||gurl that is disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know at your favorite Chinese take out place - they have their fried chicken wings - I've been trying to find a recipe for them and I can't! I heard it's made with a corn starch slurry, then I heard it's all about the oil used ... anyone know?|||They're actually garlic fried chicken (wings). What you need to do is prepare your chicken wings. Boil enough water for the chicken. Once the water is boiling, put the chicken in for 3 minutes and take out to let it dry. You can put in the fridge if you want or need to. Seasoned with garlic powder - be generous with the garlic. Put in plastic bag and let air out and twist tie. Let it marinate for 4 hours or overnight or as long as it's safe.
On the cooking day, take out of the fridge and season with salt and a little black pepper. (MSG options, but they almost always have it as part of the seasoning.).
MIX:
1 part (or cup) all purpose flour
1 part (or cup) cornstarch
1 part cold/cool water - add more water if needed
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp black pepper (option)
1/2 tsp MSG (option)
1 tsp baking powder (or use soda water instead of regular water)
The thicker the batter, the more bready it gets. You want the batter between pancake batter and watery. Add a little more cornstarch for more crispness. Flour the chicken if it's a bit damp. You want the chicken on the dry side so the batter will stick to it. Put in a deep enough hot oil (350 degree f.). Fry about 12-15 minutes - till you get the right brown color, turning from time to time to prevent from burning. Let it cool a little at least, and serve.|||Asian Crispy Chicken Wings & Spicy Sweet Chili Sauce Recipe

CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS
24 chicken wings
3/4 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup dry sherry
1 1/2 teaspoons ginger
3 cloves garlic, crushed
3 tablespoons honey
6 cups vegetable or peanut oil (for frying)
Cut off tips of chicken wings if desired. Place wings into a large ziploc bag or storage container with soy sauce, sherry, ginger, garlic and honey. Stir to distribute all ingredients (except oil) and coat the chicken pieces well.
Place in refrigerator overnight, stirring around occasionally to make sure all pieces are marinated evenly.
Preheat oil to 360-365 degrees in a heavy bottom pan.
Drain wings and lower several at a time into hot oil using tongs. Do not overload fryer to prevent oil temperature from dropping too much.
Fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Recipe may be halved
JM|||Ingredients....
* 3 pounds chicken wings (12 to 14)
* 1 onion
* a 1 1/2-inch piece peeled fresh gingerroot
* 2 tablespoons soy sauce (preferably Kikkoman)
* 1鈥?tablespoons medium-dry Sherry
* 1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder
* 1 tablespoon sugar
* 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon coarse salt
* 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
* 1/2 cup cornstarch
* 6 cups vegetable oil
Cut off wing tips, reserving for another use, and halve wings at joint. Coarsely chop onion and finely chop gingerroot. In a large sealable plastic bag combine onion, gingerroot, soy sauce, Sherry, five-spice powder, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add wings and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Turn bag until wings are completely coated. Marinate chicken wings in bag in a large bowl, chilled, turning bag once, 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350掳F.
Transfer wings and marinade to a roasting pan or large shallow baking pan and bake, covered with foil, in middle of oven 1 hour. Cool wings until they can be handled and drain in a colander, discarding marinade. Wings may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
Reduce temperature to 250掳F.
In a small serving bowl combine remaining 2 tablespoons salt and pepper. Put cornstarch in a small bowl and dredge each wing, knocking off excess cornstarch and transferring to a shallow pan. In a 5- to 6-quart heavy kettle heat oil until a deep-fat thermometer registers 370掳F. Working in batches of 6 or 7, fry wings in oil until golden brown, about 3 minutes, and with a slotted spoon transfer to paper towels to drain. Keep wings warm on a baking sheet in oven. Fry remaining wings in same manner, returning oil to 370掳F. between batches.
Serve wings with salt and pepper mixture.|||IMO, wash off the wings, coat the wings with CORNSTARCH ONLY! Then deep fry them in peanut (or vegetable) oil for around 14 minutes, preferably in a deep fryer. I think this is exactly what you are looking for and is SOOOOO simple. Give it a shot, and good luck! These turn out EXTRA crispy like the ones you are looking for!
I smoked a swisher today with my group of friends. I smoked a cigarette after to calm myself. Then I was hungry and ate a sausage. Later, I bought some Chinese take out and drank a medium sized vanilla latte. I had a cigarette after class. Then went home. I smoked another cigarette after I checked my college grade. I ate cheetos, a pear, a bag of cough drop, and drank sparkling water. For dinner I ate pasta. All because I had the munchies.
Now I have a huge stomach ache. I pooped 2 hours ago. It really hurts.
This is serious so please tell me what I can do with my stomach ache.|||If your stomach hurts only after eating there several diseases but especially three that affect a large number of people around the world are:
Gastritis
Ulcers
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Both gastritis and ulcers are closely related and similar diseases, their symptoms are very similar and both diseases are very common, causing heartburn, stomach pain after eating, gas, bloating, abdominal discomfort, constipation, and more symptoms.
A common cause of gastritis and ulcers is a bacterium called Helicobacter pylori, the bacterium is one of the major reasons that most people develop ulcers and gastritis. This bacterium infects adheres to the stomach, causing an excess of acid, which in turn causes gastritis and ulcers.
Both gastritis and ulcers can lead to major health problems without treatment and with the passage of time the gastric cancer may appear.
For all the above is very important to look after our health and assist with a medical gastroenterologist.
Irritable Bowel syndrome is another condition placed very common, the United States alone, 14% of the population has suffered from this disorder, in other countries like Mexico to 35% of the population have suffered from irritable bowel syndrome.
Irritable bowel syndrome has many symptoms for it is sometimes difficult to diagnose, the most common are that your stomach hurts after eating, often intermittent abdominal pain, anytime, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal swelling, intestinal dysmotility, in some patients also have fever, nausea and even vomiting.
This syndrome has more symptoms such as esophageal reflux (heartburn), fibromyalgia (muscle pain and fatigue), chronic fatigue, depression, anxiety, headache, backache.
What Causes Irritable Bowel Syndrome?
So far has not discovered the exact cause leading to the emergence of this syndrome, but there are factors that most likely originate from this disease are:
After having an intestinal infection many patients develop irritable bowel syndrome, although the causes are unknown.
It is believed that stress is a major cause, since in periods of great stress, the intestines contract causing constipation, heaviness, indigestion, etc..
Anyone can develop irritable bowel syndrome, however in most cases originate in adolescence, and for some unknown reason affects more women than men.
Treatment for Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Appropriate treatment should be determined by a gastroenterologist, but we recommend the following:
Reduce levels of stres, this is important.Exercise.
Resting.
Eating foods high in fiber and vegetables.
Reduce irritating foods such as sugar, coffee, alcohol.
Smoking Cessation.|||stop smoking marijuana seriously if your eating too much that could be ur problem and also eat popsicles they always help with the munchies and dont give you a belly ache ... sorry i didnt me stop smoking i meant stop eating so damn much lmao you can find other methods of helping the munchies without eating too much and btw i dont think eating a bag of cough drops is going to help you much they arent candy silly get you some lemon heads they are the bombalachacha i promise. they help with cotton mouth too ;)|||dont eat too much or your stomach could explode and that why u went pooped.|||no wonder why, its about your diet|||Lol!

For dinner my mothers getting Chinese take out. Not very healthy But we eat out once a week at that..
I'm getting what I always get. A pint of chicken and steamed mix vegetables. With sauce on the side since they over do.
I'm a 14 year old female by the way..|||No way! Go eat your Chinese food! That was very healthy choices!|||well you didnt eat anything devastatingly bad, so enjoy the chinese food! but just a comment, you could have more fruits and veggies during your day, aite?
I don't Know what happened. In H.S. I was top notch. then i came to College and have been ******* up ever since. My grades are terrible I'm on academic probation and this is my second time on it. I have no scholarship, because i lost mind. I cant do the major i want which is finance, so i have to settle for econ. Life is generally going bad. i no i need to pick it up. But i just can't find the motivation. Usually when this happens I've always got myself back up. but academic probation again. AND i am completely to blame, when My friends were studying iw as out partying drinking and going after girls. My parents lost respect for I lost respect. i just lay in my room and eat chinese take out all day. it is digusting.|||STUDY,STUDY,STUDY!!! if you got ur self out of it before you can do it again,get off the pity pot or at least grab a school book and read,pretty soon you will be back on your game!!!|||lmao, you funny. . .
you should study out loud or if you're lazy, study in between commercial breaks... study at the Chinese food place!!! just go out, get some fresh air, listen to music you like...maybe even take a walk!!! Do anything to get yourself out of this mess! keep the blood pumping and dont just sit around all day...

thur-260

then i almost passed out, got worried and shoved my fave with 500 calories.
right now i feel better, not full. My dad is getting Chinese take out.
I am about to say **** MY ED TONIGHT and i am going to eat what i want.
If i get chinese food tonight and just eat normally then go backt o my 0-400 cals per day ways tomorrow, ill be fine, right?
I mean ONE day of indulgence wont hurt...right?
i know it takes a couple days to gain real fat/weight
Also...what should i get at the Chinese place?|||First of all, if you are only eating that many calories a day you need to seek professional help. It is not healthy to eat that way and you could be harming your body. If you eat too much tonight you will gain a little weight, but it sounds like you could use it. Good luck to you.|||You're correct, eat all things in moderation. However, you can fill up your stomach with fruit and vegetables first before enjoying your indulge. This way, you can ensure you can can eat the indulge in moderation.
Check out these recommendations when planning your meals.
* Eat sufficient amounts of grains, especially whole grains
* Eating at least 2 servings of fruit and vegetables daily
* Choosing and preparing food with less fat, especially saturated fat
* Choosing and preparing food with less salt and sauces
* Choosing beverages and food with less sugar
* When drinking alcoholic beverages, do it in moderation|||i know its hard with an eating disorder. eat what you can (so that you dont feel guilty and mess yourself up more) but please do try to eat. are you getting help? |||the general tso's chicken is always the best choice, i had some a few hours ago and it was great. Also the sesame chicken.|||You have a problem....seriously, go get help.|||k u should fight counting calories and just eat a healthy diet and exercise ppl will find out if u have the disorder if ur bone thin, and its not healthy for u it makes ur bones brittle and u can break things easily or die, is being too skinny worth dying? how much do u weigh exactly right now, if u just exercise u can be healthy and skinny im only 15 but i eat and im 90 pounds because im a runner i definetly dont count calories i just eat when im hungry and its fine and about wat u should order i have no clue i have never really had chinese get some type of stir fry or egg rolls or something like that
well to get into recovery just eat a little more each day u wont really be affected by it as much because the disorder will slowly just go and you should have family and friends help u with the disorder
We don't really have much in my house as far as healthy food is concerned right now. We have absolutely no fruit or vegetables (aside from some salad greens and we don't even have dressing!)
I'm thinking about ordering Chinese from the local Chinese take-out place near my house. My plan is to walk about 1.6 miles to a local shopping center to get my bangs trimmed. I will order lunch on my way back from getting my bangs cut, so I'll be doing about 3 miles of walking (in addition to my usual 3 miles of Leslie Sansone Walk Away the Pounds).
What are my best options for Chinese? I'm thinking that I'll get my entree with brown rice and a cup of Wonton Soup.
Thanks so much for your help!|||Get Chicken and Broccoli or Chicken and another kind of green vegetable. A pint of that on Weight Watchers is only 4 points. Or if you don't want that, try Wor Wonton Soup. That's only 7 points for a 4-cup container. It's full of veggies, protein, and it's extremely filling. Not to mention it's DELICIOUS!|||Well, stay away from the noodle and rice dishes, obviously.
Kung Pao chicken shouldnt be very bad for you, it's not fried or greasy. You could also try Shredded Pork with Garlic Sauce or Sesame Beef
Basically just stick to something protein or meat based thats not fried, and youll be fine.|||I think the moo goo gai pan made with broccoli and lean chicken strips. But all Chinese American food is high in sodium content, so if you're trying to diet, all that high sodium in the food may not be good for you. Good luck! ; )|||When it comes to Chinese take outs i always oreder a vegetarian soup...i dunno, noodles with tofu or egg soup. It will minimize your chances of food poisoning and keep you fit while feeling full.|||haha yeah...if uve got bunkbeds or trees outside or even a pull up bar..wrap ur legs so that ur hanging upside down..and then lift ur upper body with ur abs|||Ever tased dog brain's soup ??, .. its just awesome.....
There are a few reasons I don't like to cook.
a. Bugs. I have lived in 2 different apartment and both have bug/ants problems as soon as I bring food in. And I don't like to keep fresh fruit around because of gnats.
b. I like to eat what I am in the mood for. When you cook, you cook what is in your cabinets. If you want sweet tea to drink, but you only have kool-aid then your out-of-luck.
c. When I do cook, I have left-overs. Then the left-overs don't get eaten and they go bad.
d. It just never seems to taste as good as something from a restaurant or take-out place. I love Chinese food, and nothing from the grocery store ever tastes the same as from the Chinese take-out place.
f. I can't plan a menu and stick to it. Some of these goes back to b. If I planned to make pasta, chances are that's not what I will end up wanting.
g. Too many things go bad. I live alone and I can't even buy a half-gallon of milk because it goes bad too quickly, same with a loaf of bread.|||Ok, there's like 5 questions here and I will try to address them all because I have lived your life in more ways than you could ever know.
A: Bug Problems, well, obviously, everything must go in the frig and the pantry items have to be in a sealed container, line your pantry shelves with Bay leaves and hope that your Pest Control Service comes once a month!
B: Buy in bulk, then seperate it out in single servings.
C: Left overs are easy, just make sure you don't combine your proteins, starches and vegetables and with little research via website for leftovers or ingredients lists of what you have, you can utilize them.
D: Of course, without the culinary expertise of the Chef's, your home food will NOT taste the same, but with some basic recipes for fried rice and simple wok fried chicken and shrimp, your home cooked Chinese take out will taste closest to the delivery person without the expense and the MSG.......
E: I don't see an E here!
F: We all deal with this, no matter what the size of our pantry or refrigerator, so this is where the creativity begins. Try and combine the things you love together and see how they taste. Don't be afraid to experiment, especially with leftovers, because they are going to be garbage the next day anyways.
G: yes, they don't sell enough smaller portioned items for us single people, but with a little knowledge, we can overcome. Milk can be frozen, juices can be bought in the can, mixed with our own water then seperated out for our own usage. Meats can be bought in bulk and portioned out when we get home, sauces can be made in large batches, then frozen in smaller sizes......................yes, I know these aren't all the EASY answers you are looking for but maybe, this could be a start.
Saving money isn't easy...............but it's a style that can be learned. I hope this helps you today and have a great weekend!|||Eating out doesn't have to be expensive.
Eat off the .99 cent value menu.
they have a great .99 cent value menu at Wendy's, Taco Bell .. and McDonald's :)
.. just because it's on the 'value menu' doesn't mean it has to be unhealthy, either! :)
.. they have .99 cent baked potatoes and .99 cent chili at Wendy's.
.. they have .99 cent side-salads at McDonald's AND Wendy's :):):)
If you want to eat *cheap* at home; buy some Top Ramen Noodles.
They come in an assortment of flavors and are about .18 cents per package .. they're HIGH in carbohydrates so they're very filling!|||eat more fruit and vegetables, use salad dressing and real vegatbles it tastes nice. use real meat like egg, and bake and shake with the meat, its baked without the frying. etc|||eat healthy things when you are out and stick to that.cant you use tea bags then sweeten your tea then .use single packet sugars that way the ants wont get into them.if you lack focus and will power then nothing will help you have to be willing to commit to some kind of plan .|||Well if you wanna eat good you dont have to neccersarily go to those stores .... ..... .. you can save money by going to this place called DENNY'S they serve great food and each plate is only 5 , 6 7 , 8 , or 9 dollars ...... beakfast lunch and dinner ,, they cook great ..... they serve u with a smile ... they have EVERYTHING you want or u need ...|||Well, it sounds to me like you have to become more responsible about your kitchen for one.
If you live in a buggy environment keep foods sealed well and in the fridge.
Freeze leftovers for later.
Buy milk by the quart, buy a loaf of bread and freeze half.
Gnats prob. mean you're letting the fruit sit until over-ripe.
It's not rocket science.
Try finding a recipe you like and freezing dinner sized portions for later.
www.allrecipes.com|||ok. so you dont like to cook and you dont like the expense of constantly eating out. my suggestions:
a. take a few cooking classes. you can get some good ideas for easy meals that taste great. you will also learn to season your food so that you want to eat your own cooking...fast food really all tastes the same, "fancy" restaurants taste better because they season the foods according to the meats.
if you are a big seafood fan, try using caravelle's orange chili sauce ( just marinate and grill....that stuff rocks!)
b. there are a few essential foods that you should always have in the kitchen....that are inexpensive and easy to be creative with. canned stewed tomatoes ( you can get these in so many ways; jalapeno n garlic tom's,basil tom's, etc). also plenty of canned or frozen veggies...tortilla's....pasta...whatever you find that you eat most when you dine out.
c. try getting the 'better homes and garden's cooking for two' of the 'betty crocker, cooking for two'....you wont have too many leftovers in the fridge and the recipes are healthy and light.
d. the most important thing to look at is what do you most often eat when you eat out....those may be some of the basic foods to keep in stock and learn to cook.
in the long run you may find that cooking at home can be WAY MORE REWARDING than constantly dinning out.
and if you get bugs.....get whatever it takes to get rid of them!|||FROZEN FOOD
Now a days there's frozen restaurant food like marie calenders claim jumper and many don't have meats maybe cheese pizza
Brocoli with potatoes and cheese and there's many many good selection buy different stuff so when u are running late or when ur tired of eating out ull have something that fits what u want also granola bars
(eating out everyday is boring)
Okay, I have answered so many questions in this category that I feel like I at least deserve to put my question here... I have met an amazing woman on a dating website. She is exactly my type from head to toe! When I messaged her, we immediately hit it off. Last Friday I took her out and the night was perfect. She has been sending me constant emails and texts for the last week. After our date, we went back to her place and snuggled on her couch until six in the morning. Night before last, she invited me over and we got chinese take out and watched a movie. One thing led to another and... Yesterday I sent her a dozen pink roses before lunch, and a dozen purple roses after... I am completely enamored!
Here's the catch: The girl, being that I found her on a dating website, is going out with other people. Last night I think she may have had a date. There's no way she could be connecting with anyone else like me, but I am not interested in sharing! I am confident that I have made a serious impression on her. I'm just not sure why she is still keeping her options open when she seems so into me.
So, great knowledgeable ones of the world, do I stick it out, be patient, and continue my charm, or do I cut my losses due to a woman that's playing me? I feel like I have my hands around a lightening bolt!
Thanks for your reply and have a great day...|||Well first thing, be careful not to scare her off. She could be taking her time about dating because when she decides who has her heart she want to be absolutely certain. Even if she was on a date, it could have been pre-arranged and she could be going through the motions. There are a lot of possibilities. If you are sure of the connection, be upfront about it but don't push it. Let her know that she is on your mind but give her her breathing room.
If she is the one, maybe you can both confirm the connection (since there seems to already be consumation) by deleting you dating profiles?|||First off, I suggest you post your question in the Singles/Dating category instead of the Marriage/Divorce category.
You're trying to move too fast with this gal who is obviously wanting to play the field and sleep around. She isn't ready for a one-man relationship.
Is she really the type of woman you want in your life?
Do you really want to always be wondering who she is with now?|||May be you have not given her what she wanted.|||yes if you feel this women is who you want then be patient. The worse thing you can do is push her into a corner.|||Gently have a conversation with her about this. Tell her you want to see her exclusively. Watch for her reaction. It is better to get out earlier than later if you are with someone who is going to continue to " play the field".|||I think that you should let her know that you want to be exclusive. I don't think she is playing you, I think she just isn't sure if the two of you are exclusive and is seeing other people in the mean time. Bring it up to her, she might even think that you are seeing other people as well. I wish you luck it sounds like things are going really well!

|||I am not sure the world is ready to accept such drastic remedies to these or other problems facing man/womankind
As a teenager, I worked at a Chinese take-out restaurant where they would "offer up" all the food they prepared to the statue of Buddha. I was told that all Asians practice this as a symbol of good luck and for them to have prosperity at their restaurants. So I was just wondering if Christians felt the need to re-bless their food in order to get rid of the "contamination" blessing of the Buddha...? Or why even eat food at a place that offers a sacrifice to another God-like figure in the first place?|||lol, now they will try to perform an exorcism on it to remove the evil spirit of Buddha.|||ooooo.....huh. I didn't know they did that....i love Chinese food!!!! But anyways, i would say, re-bless the food. That should undo the Buddha stuff.|||No, I don't. I pray over Chinese food just like I pray over every other meal. I didn't know that a number of Chinese restaurants do that, and I don't really care all that much. I don't consider a Buddhist blessing a contamination. I consider it a gesture made by one of another following. I'm too mature to cry bloody murder at the sight of someone else's ways.|||lol..that's funny because im eating chinese food right now. |||This question makes me laugh! I would be the first case of "died laughing" if I saw someone re-blessing the food!
|||Bless it any way lol
I grew up in and around Toronto, Canada and I would, as many do, go for Chinese take-out every once in a while. Now of course, there are good restaurants and bad restaurants, but by and large, the fried rice tasted pretty much the same no matter where I went. We would normally order the pork friend rice of chicken friend rice. The meats lent slightly different flavors to the dish, but still, basically the same.
Well, I don't live in Canada anymore and the restaurants here in Japan make Chinese fried rice very differently. They use the Japanese rice which is very sticky and it tends to be very oily (perhaps in an attempt to make it less sticky?)... Anyway, personally, I don't like the fried rice here very much. I almost never eat it.
Instead, I'd like to learn how to make it at home. I can obtain some Basmati rice, which isn't sticky, so I intend to use that, although I'm not sure it's necessarily the best rice for Chinese dishes. Still, it's all I've got so that's that.
I've tried to find a recipe that will give me the same taste as the restaurants that surround Toronto (and most likely have the same taste across North America) but every recipe I've tried falls way short. I just can't seem to get the same flavors, no matter what I try. Considering that pretty much every restaurant I've ever been to gives almost the same taste, I imagine it's not a huge secret!
So how can I make this myself? Does anyone know of a recipe on the net (or perhaps your own) for making rice exactly like they do in North American restaurants? (I'm not interested in something 'better'. I just want to reproduce the taste I used to enjoy when I was younger.)

5 When rice is done, drain and add soom cold water and drain again using a large seive and set aside.
6 Heat oil in a kadhai / large pan and stir fry all the chopped vegetables.
7 Cook for 3-4 minutes.
8 Take care that vegetables are not overdone, they should be crisp.
9 Mix salt and pepper to taste.
10 Add the cooked rice and mix well. Now mix the soya sauce to it.
11 Cook the Chinese fried rice for 2-3 minutes and serve hot.|||Whether sticky is not decided by the rice,but by the way u cook it.If u boil the rice with more water,it would be sticky.If u boil it with less water it would be dry.Also,new boiled rice can be wet.
If u want the best way,u need a Chinese Gas stoves which can offer u much biger and hotter fire.Also,u need a Chinese iron pan锛宨t is quite different from westerns and can influence the flavor greatly. That is why u cannot copy the flavor of restaurants without these things.
About the rice,the best rice is Thailand rice or Chinese northeastern Wuchang rice.
Here is the way of cooking for hundreds kinds of fried rice.They ahve pictures for main steps,so u just need a google translator.

hanging out with this girl :D..will probably just walk around town and maybe go to a park. just talk and maybe ill hold her hand but...should I try to kiss her on the first date or is that too pushy? Like make out should wait for the future or no? what about a kiss on the cheek when we are done chilling? also, I can't drive since I'm not old enough(gotta be 17..a year short) so if she gets hungry and if we need to walk somewhere...there isn't an restaurants near us..just like chinese take out and a deli...would it be weird taking her to something that or no? I could take her to 7-11..lol|||No pushing or anything, just what comes naturally, you'll find the feeling..|||Where you take her for food is not as important is that you take her
don't just go together.
try kissing her neck when you hug her
if she stays embraced to you and looks at you
take that as an invitation to kiss her
not heavy
be subtle
peck her on her lips and be patient|||So your like 16, man if you are dateing her just chilll out. And it will work out lol and if it dose not she is not the right girl and its okay to kiss her on the check if she looks like she wants more. Kiss her lips just once like a peck then go from there|||take her to a deli and sit at the park while eating sandwiches. you can kiss her on the cheek afterwards and you'll know if she wants something more|||kiss her when you say goodbye, if she seems as though she wants to kiss you! But nothing too full on, a quick peck on the lips or cheek ;D|||Hii There (: - - - Hope this helps
Im just gonna start by saying.. Dont Makeout!!! One of my boyfriends did that on our first real date and I thought it was nice, but now that i think about it.. he cheated on me and was really trashy.. and thats too fast .. so no on the makin out--- even tho yes it is fun XD
Start with cheek always.. if she enjoys it go in for the lips or she wil..
if she doesnt she will be like confused, maybe change of mood..
make sure yall are really connecting.. and it should be towards the end of the date or a few hours or so into it..|||Dont try to kiss her.
Okay, I have answered so many questions in this category that I feel like I at least deserve to put my question here... I have met an amazing woman on a dating website. She is exactly my type from head to toe! When I messaged her, we immediately hit it off. Last Friday I took her out and the night was perfect. She has been sending me constant emails and texts for the last week. After our date, we went back to her place and snuggled on her couch until six in the morning. Night before last, she invited me over and we got chinese take out and watched a movie. One thing led to another and... Yesterday I sent her a dozen pink roses before lunch, and a dozen purple roses after... I am completely enamored!
Here's the catch: The girl, being that I found her on a dating website, is going out with other people. Last night I think she may have had a date. There's no way she could be connecting with anyone else like me, but I am not interested in sharing! I am confident that I have made a serious impression on her. I'm just not sure why she is still keeping her options open when she seems so into me.
So, great knowledgeable ones of the world, do I stick it out, be patient, and continue my charm, or do I cut my losses due to a woman that's playing me? I feel like I have my hands around a lightening bolt!
Thanks for your reply and have a great day...|||STOP being so darn nice to her. Let her know that if she is going to continue to "date" other people, you are gone. She has to make a choice. Its that easy. If she has any feelings for you , she will be on your doorstep.
Good Luck|||give it 3 weeks and than an ultimatum. it's too soon for her to trust you yet|||You have to just come out and ask her if she is seeing other people. Then just tell her what you told us. That you don't want to share her. Ask if she is on the same page with you. If she's not and that is not ok with you, then move on. It's really pretty straight forward.|||You are enamored, but it's only been a week. My husband and I met online, and he quickly made a deal of closing his online account, but it was a little weird. I wasn't really interested in others, but I thought he was trying to "sew me up." If you'd met her a different way, she'd probably have some loose ends, too. I think you'd be smart to be patient for a month or so. You may change your mind by then, anyway. You two don't know each other at all, really. Even if there's chemistry. If she's the one, you don't want to run her off.|||Talk to her, let her know you aren't wanting to do the whole seeing other people thing.|||Hey, she's keeping her options open, just because you've had a coupe good nights, doesn't mean it's going to work out. I don't blame her for moving slow and dating other people, when she does finally make a choice, she'll KNOW for sure who she wants to be with! If you want to wait, fine, if not, that's fine too, but you have no right to push her just because of how YOU feel! She's was honest and open about her dating others and either you accept it or you don't!|||Be honest with her, and tell her how you feel. Tell her that you want to be monogamous with her. She might not be dating anyone else anyway. If she was not interested in you, she would not show you all that attention. I think you got this one man!|||Are you sure she knows you aren't seeing anyone else? If not let her know. But you can't expect her to just become exclusive without telling her that's what you would like. If your so into her stick around. Its not like she is leading you on she might be feeling the same way but isn't sure where you stand right now either.|||It sounds like you have a really good thing going on here. Talk to her about seeing each other exclusively and see what she has to say about that. Let her know how you feel. Who knows, maybe the other man/men she's dated since your last date haven't measured up.
Congrats on your find and the BEST of luck to you!|||You should hang in there and see how things develop. You can't really blame her for dating and may have had the date already planned since you just met her in person less than a week ago. Once you have more time with her things will get more exclusive but now she's just taking care of unfinished business.|||Give it a little time. Maybe she had already made commitments through the dating site to go out with these other people. If you connected like you say, you probably won't have to share much (any) longer!|||I'd say you have every right to ask her what her intensions are (for lack of a better word). You deserve to know if she has the same interests in you, and if she doesn't then she needs to be honest with you. If she does have the same interests in you, then she needs to cut outside dating out of her life! Maybe she's waiting on you to have the big DTR talk (Defining the Relationship). Good luck! :)|||I would say stick it out! If you really like her just keep up the things your are doing in no time she will be eating out of the palm of your hand! Good luck|||Tell her that you are really interested in her and you would like her to be your girlfriend, also, she may have already had plans for that date and did not want to be rude to him. I would be surprised if (and this is assuming that it was a date) anything happened. She sounds like she really likes you so ask her to take it one step further.
Hi, I am an australian, who loves to cook. I have tried for some years to get these two recipes right - but havent. Does anyone have the recipes for:
*Southern Style Fried Chicken - Authentic
*Chinese Fried Rice - Authentic
*Corn Bread *what is it? it sounds yummy*
by writing authentic, i mean i have searched for recipes in books, and on the net, but havent been happy with them. they always seem "white"??No racism intended - im irish - but alot of them seem unauthentic - is all
ALSO....why are chinese people so secretive about their cooking? i was watching my favourite chinese take-out man cook my dinner, i was trying to see what he was using, but it[ingredients]was all in like plastic containers and metal bowls - didnt really reveal much - so ive come to the conclusion chinese people/chefs arent sharing....!!
Any help would be appreciated!|||i can only help you on chinese fried rice. you can substitude sausage with chicken as well as the vegetables.

She is a great chef and is from Savannah, Georgia y'all. I guarantee her recipes for these things are "authentic". For Chinese fried rice check out allrecipes.com or recipezaar.com.|||you need to use some red pepper on your fried chicken or Tony's seasoning. that will make it POP!
gotta talk to some one else about the rice, I prefer to get mine take out!
I have some family here in southern Massachusetts from the San Francisco bay area (Castro Valley) and we had Chinese take out. They were pretty much horrified at what passed for Chinese food here in Massachusetts.
For example, the roasted pork chow mein we ordered was the dry kind of chow mein type we had to soften ourselves when it got home (it seems the bay area version is more noodle-like than the dry stuff we get served here on in MA). Also, the sweet and sour pork here in MA is 3-inch long pieces of pork in a white/golden brown batter with an orange sweet and sour sauce. The bay area version I'm not too sure about except that it looks much different (and the taste too) and comes with different things like cabbage, etc on the plate.
Why is there such a marked difference in what has the same name (i.e. chow mein and sweet and sour pork). I'm sure there's other differences, that's just what we ordered here in Massachusetts. I'm just curious what passes for Chinese food in CA and why it's so different here on the east coast. Also, the place we ordered the food from here in MA has great reviews and is always mentioned as one of the better Asian restaurants in our town.
Thanks!!|||No one seems to have a good answer for you, and neither do I. I know what you are talking about, however. (I also know about the differences between real Asian food and American Asian food from my travels to Asia, but that is not the point of your question). I grew up on the West Coast, and moved as an adult to the East Coast. The first time I ordered the sweet and sour pork on the East Coast, I was horrified. What is that stuff? It was one of my favorite dishes while growing up on the West Coast. No answers for you, but I learned not to order it again. They all make it like that on the East Coast. I suppose it is just one of those regional quirks. Like, New Englanders like their hot dog buns sliced on the top, not the side.
Now, don't even get me started on the bad Mexican food on the East Coast. I grew up in California, and I thought everyone could get a good chile relleno throughout the country. The few I've had out here have been deep-friend (ugh).
Give your friends some clamcakes and fried dough. We never had those things on the West Coast growing up, and I learned to like them a lot. |||all i can tell you is that if you ate REAL!! chinese food u might be grossed out, chinese people are known for their exotic tastes, they eat things (talking about real china) u would not imagine. i tell you from experiance, i make myself believe that chinese food in america is the REAL!!! kinda food, because in china the REAL!! food is... um just not as good as the not real american chinese food hehe|||Chinese food in the US is all Americanized.
If you think you are eating Chinese food in the US .
you are in fantasy land
The average American would not eat real Chinese food.
nor would the FDA allow it.|||different ingredients used.
=]|||its a questionof how much soy sauce they use|||I don't think it is necessarily an East Coast / West Coast thing, it might be an "American Chinese food" versus "real chinese food" thing.
There are a lot of restaurants that have "Americanized" Chinese food that looks nothing like what is traditionally served in China.
there are also many, many kinds of Chinese cuisine - Hong Kong style, Scezchan, Mandarin, etc.
San Francisco has an enormous Asian population - much richer and more diverse than what is probably found in Massachusetts. So that is probably the difference.
It's the same reason that people in Texas, Arizona, and California long for authentic Mexican food when they're in the East.|||Where you are from always has the best Chinese food. Its all about what you are use to and what you are use to eating. The food from where i live is like the best to me, I have found none to compare, but I am sure eating it for most of my childhood (left my state at 19), helped make it the best. Every place makes it different. Where I am from the Shrimp and broccoli have big jumbo shrimp and big broccoli, but when I went moved to Louisiana it was small shrimp and broccoli. I am use to brown sauce with this item, but this place in NY I ate at had white sauce (gross...to me of course), so it depends on what you are use to, I say.|||It's not an East Coast/West Coast thing.
There is a standard style of cuisine in this country I would call "restaurant Chinese". In fact, the food is so standardized that it would appear the restaurants just buy the menus preprinted from a central supplier. In the absence of a large ethnic Chinese population that demands more authentic Chinese food, this is what you get. So you know what to expect in Massachusetts, in Florida, in Indiana, in Montana...
In certain large areas on the West Coast there are large enough populations that demand real authentic Chinese food that you end up with something very different. So basically it is the West Coast that is the exception.
As far as the crunchy noodles go, you're supposed to eat them hard.
You can find authentic Chinese food in Chinatown. Seeing as how I don't get there very often, I prefer to cook Chinese food at home from cookbooks.
We get Chinese take-out often from several places. I always order the same thing. Wasn't sure at first but now it's unmistakable, the food from one place ALWAYS makes me sick. The food from this place has an odd smell that the others don't: kind of a sour milky smell but it doesn't contain any milk. What could it be?|||that all depends on what the food you ordered was, the Chinese have a very different way of cooking to us, they tend to have a lot of additives natural & other items like monosodium glutamate. this enhances the flavour of food but can also cause allergies. your "off smell" was most likley caused by their "stock"(base for most sauces) if you tell me what your food was i could answer your question better!|||Well maybe if you put down what you ordered that would help.
ordering from my favorite chinese take out....want to try something different besides lobster fried rice and egg rolls. will I like cheese wonton and dim sum? I always hear about them...|||It's hard to say what anyone will or will not like. Cheese/cream cheese wontons are definitely americanized, even relative to the usual americanized Chinese food served in the USA. So my guess is that they would be more palatable to your tastes (assuming you are American). Dim sum is a really a variety of lighter dishes (as in steamed vs fried and drenched in sauce) often eaten with tea. So there is no single dim sum dish. You may like some more than others. You just have to try different ones. Do you have a bunch of friends who like Chinese food or are willing to try? If so, go to a restaurant serving dim sum and order several dishes to share amongst the group. That's the best way to taste a variety of dishes and also split the cost, since dimsum can be pricey.|||I know that the fried cheese won tons are fabulous...the dim sum...IDK...so tell me all about afterwards...|||I like them....cheese wonton are really a mixture of fake crab and cream cheese stuffed inside a wonton wrapper and deep fried while dim sum are wontons filled with meat then pan fried or steamed. Both are delicious!|||pic of dim sum: http://www.chinatownconnection.com/images/dimsum2.jpg
This picture really helps. It tells you almost all the traditional dim sums. I personally like dim sum.
Cheese won ton? never heard about it... doesn't sound good either. it's like americanized oriental food.|||Chinese food is a poor wannabe version of Thai food. Get yourself some thai food and throw the chinese food in the garbage where it belongs.|||Cream cheese wonton isn't bad, simple finger food not much different from an egg roll besides the stuffing inside of course. The ones I've had consisted of only cream cheese and chives, have yet to try any other ones with different stuffing's. About Dim Sum, there are some that are good and some most people would have a hard time trying, for example, "chicken feet", it's part of the menu for Dim Sum, I've seen it all the time but don't like it much. I've tried almost all kinds of Dim Sum and that would be my least favorite.|||While we certainly cannot tell you what you'll like or not since taste is subjective, one of my very favorite things are wontons. But you'll never know until you try them, so go for it.|||I've never had a cheese wonton, but I make cream cheese wontons that are pretty good. Dim Sum is good too. If you like Chinese food, then you will probably like anything on the menu. I have yet to have Chinese food I don't like.|||Haven't try cheese wonton, so don't no. You will love dim sum bc you get to see the food and pick whatever you like to eat or try. It's fun eating a little of everything instead of order one or two main course, but it's kind of expensive. If you are having a great time, it shouldn't matter.
Im in an art class and we have to do projects that go with our theme. my theme is food. do you have any ideas on what a good project would be?

Bucket of popcorn ( popcorn made out of sewn fabric).
Drawing of a chinese take out box.|||You could take something that shows up in different forms in various cultures, like pasta, or cheese, or cookies, or wedding cakes.
There are a ton of noodles from Asia which are different from the Italian ones, Germany has spaetzle, etc. Certain cheeses are associated with different countries too, like queso fresco with Mexico, Parmesan with Italy, Feta with Greece, lots with France and America.
Or like how similar foods show up in very different cultures. Egg/spring rolls from Asian countries, burritos from Mexico, calzone from Italy, Cornish pasties from England, etc.
You could represent them any way you wanted really, from sculpting, to painting, to photography.
I ate dinner tonight (local Chinese take out) and about 20 mins after eating I got the worst pain in my side. I have never felt this pain before and it seems to be getting worse. I wasn't gassy earlier but I am feeling that way now. Its been 6 hours since it's started. It hurts to move. What could this be? Oh and I gave birth 6 weeks ago.|||Sounds like it could be your gallbladder. I just recently had my gallbladder out on May 7. After I would eat I would get a really bad pain in my right side and it would go into my back. Are you having any pains in your back, even if you are not it could be that. I would go to the local er or emergnecy stop and see if they can tell you what it is. If it is your gallbladder I would suggest that you get it removed. I dealt with the pain for 5 months off and on. And it does not get any better.|||Make sure its not ur appendix..and make a drs appointment to make sure ur uterus and ovaries are all ok

The AMERICAN factory-owners that run those factories are the ones who are too cheap to but low-lead paint. AMERICANS are the ones causing this because they allow AMERICAN companies to make factories in China so that they can make things cheaper.

Like by my house there is a amazing chinese place that sells most of their stuff for $5. Their plates can feed like three people. I bet there's a small chinese restaurant that is like that in your area.
You can also try to make your own chinese food. Spring rolls are easy to make lol.
If not then order the pizza. Dominoes does medium pizzas for $5 each so you can buy 5 medium pizzas. That is, if they do that deal in your area.
You can also have a potluck type of thing and have your friends each bring a dish.
$25 isn't going to get you very far.
=[|||What do you mean by takeout?
Do you mean go to a resturant, order their dishes to go?
That would be wayy more than $25. when my family goes out to eat chinese food(which is all the time cause i'm chinese), it's usually around $30-40 for 4 people, about 5 dishes, but we usually have leftover.
If you mean takeout as in fried rice and noodles, you might be able to get it for about $25. In the Chinatown over here in Sf, a box of fried rice/noodles is $1...
So maybe go to your local chinatown and ask them about big orders in one of those giant foiled pans.|||Food for ten people will DEFINITELY be more than $25. If it's possible to get some recipes and try to make it, I think that would be the best bet. And buy what is too difficult to make or just something like egg rolls. But I bet it will be at least twice that amount for 10 people. Probably more, depending on how much they eat.|||Why don't you ask everyone at the party to bring $5?
That way you'll have $50 which will almost provide for you all. Plus if you have $25 on top of the $50 you'll have $75.
This means that $75 dollars would easily feed you all with decent chinese food.
Derrr :)|||i must say i'm not a big chinese food eater. but i do know pizza and if you want that to be cheaper then order only cheese pizza then have your own toppings that each person can put on their slice.|||thats almost impossible, if it is actually that cheap, you should second guess the stuff they put into the food ... -_- i think 2 extra larges or a party size would be enough|||most dishes that will at least satisfy a person is $6-8 per dish...you could go ghetto and buy 25 eggrolls for .99 cents each...|||you could do it....not very much food though

I recently moved and a chinese take out place left a fliar in our mail box, and under desserts, there's "lychee fruit"
I've never heard of it. Is it good? Do they do something to it or do they just give you fruit?|||fuccc yeee mang..ish iz bomb lol..good stuff
u needa peel it though..could take a while if ur slow at peeling lol
buh yah...|||Yes I have, We get this fruit at winter starting in France,Yes it is good,somewhat chewy,sweet and juicy,Fruits we have are natural and come this way.

It is yummy!

I never get chopsticks when I order from Chinese Take-Out lol..

i love chinese take out.i wanna know how they fry their chicken.what ingredients they use and their process.also...i have a deep fryer. thanks for the info.|||Look up a general tso or sesame chicken recipe on the web.
In general, thigh meat is used (flavor) it is seasoned and coated with flour and cornstarch and fried in oil. It is then drained and then stir fried with the other ingredients and a sauce is added. It would be too long to go into the exact recipe here, but that is the general method.|||I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for but I'm going to give it a shot anyways:
chicken wings 500 grams
table salt 1 tspn
flour 1 big tspn
sweet condensed milk 2 tspn
1) get a big bowl and put all the ingredients in and mix with the chicken
2) after mixing the chicken into a sticky paste of all the ingredients, let it soak for 2 hours so the flavor really goes in
3) the chicken wings are ready to be fried in the deep fryer
4) voila! yummy crispy chicken wings|||well usually use soy sauce season salt and fve spce powder. than fry 4 about 1 mn. enjoy

Dog barfed 4 times 10 minutes after taking his monthly heartworm preventative. Should I give him another one? It was not the medication that made him sick, he had gotten into some food he should not have gotten into, chinese take out, and then played WWF smackdown with a buddy of his. So the tummy upset did not come from the medication. Should I go ahead and give him another?

I called the vet and he said that the dose is so small that it isn't a big deal.

You cant be for sure how much d=he got and what didnt and can easly overdose him.|||It wouldn't hurt him to have another one, but wait for a day or two when he feels better. It is almost impossible to OD on Heartguard, so you won't hurt him by giving him another one.|||Call your vet, the other poster may be incorrect & you may hurt your dog. And keep junk food such as that away from animals.|||I would, but ask your vet if you are not comfortable with that.
I am 99% sure he threw it up if it was not in his stomach for very long.|||call your vet first|||Even a double dose won't hurt him. Better to make sure the heartworms are taken care of, so I would give him another one as soon as his tummy settles.|||You should ask your vet.
In most cases it can be dangerous because you don't know how much might have been asorbed and you can end up giving him an overdose.
if you are in the United States and the vets is closed until Tues don't do anything till you get a hold of your vet teh day or so shouldn't do anything if teh vet does say it's ok I wouldn't take chances till you talk to your vet.

2 tablespoons soy sauce, shoyu, or Bragg’s
3/4 cup water
½ – 1 tablespoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon chopped garlic (1 clove)

Does that sound dorkie or should I go with something else. My ideal wedding is on the beach but, I want a theme that isn't so oceanie.|||Congratulations on you upcoming wedding! An Asian inspired wedding would be very fun. Traditionally, red is the primary color for this as the asian culture believes red to be good luck. You could also do a cherry blossom theme wedding. You could do green, light pinks and brown to make it work. There are countless sites that can help you plan to do something like this. Just search Asian themed weddings.
Hope this helps!|||that would be cool!! i think you could definetely have chinese food too. for those of your guests that are picky, they can have the little fried chicken pieces or plain rice and gravy, or even just vegetable. i think having a buffet would b ur best bet. and as far as decorations red and green and light pink and black and brown are usually asian colors... you could even visit the chinatown nearest you. even if u have to make a special trip it would b worth it, you can find some great deals on authentic chinese stuff. you could even give chinese candy and fortune cookies for your "gift" for the guests. (one candy i like is called white rabbit, its kind of like a white tootsie roll. but not chocolately tasting.)|||Any ethnic theme seems condscending to me - They seem sort of "manufactured" - JMHO|||Oceanie, that's a funny word :) I think having a few Chinese themed things is fine, but not the food. You can't count on all your guests being into ethnic food. That's why at most weddings there's a beef or chicken meal choice, and then maybe fish, or pasta for any vegetarians. The food is pretty straightforward so it suits most palates.
Maybe instead of the paper lanterns with tassels you can use paper globes, they sell them online with lights inside and they look awesome hanging up at the reception. I was going to use them at my wedding because I saw a lot of pics of other weddings there that had them, but the ceiling was too high for us to hang them. The little takeout containers can be for your favors, you could put chocolates or candles or something else inside them.

So, now I want to take another step into the culture and get into anime / manga. I haven't played video games in 6years and I know absolutely nothing about anime. Please help.|||Read it. Watch it. That's really all you have to do.
Some ones that I like are:
Bleach (anime and manga, but skip the anime bount arc)
Full Metal Alchemest
DN Angel
Fruits Basket
Generator Gawl
Most Studio Ghibli movies
Gundam Wing
Trigun
There's also Death Note, which is popular, there's manga, anime and some live action movies of it. Oh, and Cowboy BeBop.
There's also a lot of places online where you can download english subbed versions of the anime in Japanese (which is usually better) for free. A good thing to do is to look for anime and manga that incorperates things that you like. If you like lots of battles, watch Bleach or Naruto. If you like love stories watch DN Angel, if you like both, Full Metal Alchemist.

Some shows Inuyasha,Fruits Basket,Death Note,and Full Metal Alchemist.(once again i can name more)|||The ones I first saw are still my favorites. I tend to try and watch the anime movies more than the series since watching a series will make you want to have all the episodes and they often have 20 + and you have to pay for each sepearately or sometimes several episodes are on 1 tape or DVD but it's still expensive. Some are short like Project A-k 1-3. I heard there was a spin off or alternate universe OVAs of it or something but I haven't seen it yet. Devil Hunter Yoko, Genocyber, Iczer 1, Battle Angel, The Guyver, Mermaids Scar, Blood Reign, Akira, Wicked City (there's also a live action movie, but it's not as good as the anime imo) Poltergeist Report, Doomed Megalopolis, Vampire Princess Miyu, The Outsiders, Crying Freeman, Vampire Hunter D, 3x3 eyes, Demon City, Mermaid Scroll, The Slayers, Ninja Scroll, Record of Lodos War, Cowboy Beebop, Oger Slayer, Armitage, Pet Shop of Horrors, Ghost in the Shell, Angel Cop ... hmmm i'll have to think some more. :) but try www.rightstuf.com, a VERY good site.

Try searching the interent for explainations on the different genre available. U'll probably get a list of anime then u can just try watching them online (try in youtube or ITKWTF.com) if its a bother to download.
Or you can just try watching any anime that is shown on T. Check out if anyone is to ur liking and go from there to find other animes.

Try cooking the meals in the mornings and fix everyone's plates, wrap in plastic wrap and store in the fridge or freezer. At mealtime, heat the plates and unwrap and serve. You get a home cooked meal and don't suffer the evening heat.

sweet and sour chicken with the red sauce on it, and pork fried rice. In TOTAL 1 cup. I only had about 1 cup of food not one cup each. There is no label its chinese take out! Also its not a chicken breast its pieces with bread coating.|||With that sort of food it is very difficult to say how many calories are in it. But it is safe to say that it is usually many more calories than we think. What makes take out food so tasty is all the fat and rich sauces. So lets say a serving of chicken and a serving of pork and a serving of rice which would total about 350 calories and add on calories for the sauce so maybe 450 calories. That's about what I would guess.

The secret is in the technique, not any specific recipe.
Cook the rice separately, heat 1 cup in 2 tbsp oil first.
Add to 2 cups of boiling water, cover & reduce heat.
Simmer for 45 minutes until water is all absorbed.
Slice boneless chicken breast or thighs,
or slice pork chops or beef steaks in strips.
Brown & set aside.
Add vegetables to hot pan in order of cooking time:
Carrots, water chestnuts, broccoli, bok-choy, celery,
onions, garlic, peppers, bean sprouts, etc.
Leave about 2 minutes between each addition.
Return meat.
Finish with 2 tbsp cornstarch with 1/2 cup water.
Whisk together with some soy sauce to darken.
Add to vegetables to thicken & form gravy.
Serve over steamed rice|||Don't beat yourself up, and don't try to make it an all or nothing proposition to start with. If you want take out, have it-but enjoy it in moderation, AND throw in a glass of homemade juice somewhere throughout the day. By combining the two to start with, you will feel less deprived. Once you reframe the way you think about it, and start noticing some benefits from that lovely juice, you are likely to start WANTING to make changes. If you convince yourself that the junk food is good, and the good stuff is not, thats exactly how you will continue to think about it. If you take the time to ENJOY a glass of homemade juice-even the act of juicing it, washing the veggies, etc., then your thoughts may very well change. Its all in the approach. Good luck.|||Buy some broccoli, baby corn, stir fry sauce, and udon noodles. Sautee the carrots and broccoli until tender, then add the corn, sauce, and spinach. Meanwhile, boil the noodles. When the noodles are done, add them to the mixture and stir enough to coat them. Now you have delicious oriental food that's healthy instead of junky.

We have a container of rice from the chinese take out last night. Can I make rice pudding out of this?|||Here's a quick, simple recipe for you. Warm rice pudding is so yummy.
2 1/2 cups (600 ml) of whole milk
1/3 cup (66 grams) of long or short grain white rice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/4 cup (50 grams) dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
1/3 cup (40 grams) raisins
1 In a medium heavy bottomed saucepan, combine milk, rice and salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
2 In a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg and brown sugar until well mixed. Add a half cup of the rice mixture - a Tablespoon at a time - beating to incorporate.
3 Add egg mixture back into the saucepan of rice and milk and stir, on low heat, for 10 minutes or so, until thickened. Be careful not to have the mixture come to a boil at this point. Stir in the vanilla. Remove from heat and stir in the raisins.
Serve warm or cold.
Serves 2-3.
http://www.elise.com/recipes/archives/00鈥?/a>|||yes you can , i did it once it was yummy|||Yes you can, we use to do it in college all of the time.|||i don't know can you???|||Sure, I used to do that all the time. I just put in milk to cover, 1 egg, sugar (to taste), cinnamon, vanilla extract, and raisins. Just pop it in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes. I wish I had some now!|||I think so.|||yes, put the rice into a vanilla pudding|||you can make anythink if you put ur mind to it|||Yes, I think you can.|||Arroz con Coco (Cuban Coconut Rice Pudding):
This rice pudding comes from the author's Cuban friend who uses starchy, short-grain Valencia-style rice to achieve a creaminess reminiscent of risotto. Valencia-style rice can be found at most supermarkets; you can also use a short-grain rice like Arborio or Japanese white rice.
3 cups water
1 cup short-grain rice (such as Arborio)
4 whole cloves
1 (2-inch) piece vanilla bean, split lengthwise
1 (2-inch) cinnamon stick
1 (14-ounce) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup evaporated fat-free milk
1/2 cup light coconut milk
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 tablespoon chopped crystallized ginger
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
Pinch of salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
Place water and rice in a large saucepan. Place cloves, vanilla, and cinnamon on a double layer of cheesecloth. Gather edges of cheesecloth together; tie securely. Add to rice mixture. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to low; cook 20 minutes or until rice is tender and liquid is almost absorbed.
Stir in milks and raisins; cook 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in ginger, rind, and salt; cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove cheesecloth with spices. Pour rice mixture into a bowl or individual bowls; cover surface of pudding with plastic wrap. Chill. Sprinkle with cinnamon, if desired.
Yield: 8 servings (serving size: 1/2 cup)|||Leftover Rice Rice Pudding
2 cups leftover cooked white rice
3 cups milk (any kind)*
1/2 cup sugar
small pinch salt
1/2 cup raisins
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, optional
pinch nutmeg, optional
Combine cooked rice, milk, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer and stir in the vanilla and raisins. Cook until just about all of the milk is absorbed (30-45 minutes, depending on how absorbent your rice is). Stir in cinnamon and/or nutmeg, if using.
Divide rice pudding into individual serving dishes serve warm or chilled.
Makes 4-6 servings.
*Note: Sometimes I add an extra 1/2 cup of milk, if the rice seems unusually firm or dry, to make it creamier. Feel free to add a bit extra if the pudding is not as creamy as you like it. You can use nonfat, lowfat, whole or soy milk in this recipe.
so i have been alone at work for six hours with another two to go bc someone called in sick...and i haven't eaten except one piece of toast this morning...soo iam just thinking about what i will pick up when i'm off...

can someone please tell me what the difference is in the types of chinese foods? i hear of cantonese, sechwan(sp) and others. i'm guessing it has to do with the region in which they originated but what is it that makes them different? how do the flavors differ and which is the kind one typically finds in chinese take out?|||Beijing Food (Northern Chinese)
Beijing food is the most famous food in China. .
The northern part of China has a very cold climate. The region is unable to grow rice, and therefore wheat is the food base. Northern Chinese eat more breads than their compatriots in the south, where rice predominates.
Perhaps the most famous northern dish is Beijing Duck. Mongolian hot-pots and sweet-and-sour dishes from the Henan province are also popular.
Cantonese Food
Cantonese food is typically steamed, boiled or stir-fried. It is a very healthy food, since it uses a minimum of oil. The main ingredients of this type of Chinese food are seafood, pork, chicken and vegetables. Dim Sum and Fried Rice are also characteristic.
There are no limits to what you may find in your bowl. As one Chinese proverb goes: "Cantonese eat every thing that flies except planes, every thing on the ground except cars, and every thing that is in water except boats."
Sichuan Food
What is typical of this southwestern province of China is the spicy taste of its food. If you want to eat "la," as people say in Chinese, try the Sichuan pepper beef. Many Sichuan dishes are prepared using chili pepper oil, which gives a special taste to the food.
The most famous Sichuan dish is the Gongbao (Kung Pao) chicken, fried with peanuts and chili pepper.
Huaiyang Food
Huaiyang food is probably the most popular Chinese food in North America, with its steam cooking. Soups are also a very important element. Huaiyang is the home of "red cooking," a method of cooking food in a marinade made of soya sauce, water, sugar, ginger and white wine.
Noodles come from the Yangzi river region. The southern city of Nanjing is famous for its duck dishes. Shanghai has its own specialties, including stir-fried dishes|||it's "regionated." just go for plain old chinese food and not the kind that has a special region attached to it. it's the besty!|||The different types reflect the area where they come from>Sezchuan tends to be spicier than cantonese. In all honesty though most chinese food is cooked to suit American taste. Also MSG is often added to Chinese food. I tis a flavor enhancer and it makes you thirsty.
i have a sortof unhealthy family. I only excercise during the mornings at school..volleyball/basketball&& I don't really like much vegetables, ill only eat like green beans or brocoli when its from a chinese take out. So how much FAT can i loose in a month or so?|||Please don't "loose" your fat. Lose it instead.|||It depends stop eating those pizza and fried chinese food.
Workout after school run!|||do cardio walk or jog 5 miles
drink cold water and eat healthy
no take out of fast food
I've looked on line and there are so many that proclaim theirs to be it, but some use white chicken breast, others chicken thigh meat and various spices. I am not looking for the New Orleans style recipe with real bourbon, but the recipe that Chinese people use like they make at the malls. Funny, why don't any of the chinese take out places in my home time have this on their menu?|||Watch this video

I want to order chinese take out can anyone tell me what
Sa Cha beef|||Sha cha beef (Chinese: 娌欒尪鐗涜倝; also called sa cha beef, cha beef, or cha beefsteak) is the name of a Chinese dish featuring shacha sauce and tenderized beef strips. The Americanized dish is usually served over a bed of white rice with fresh scallions and cilantro (coriander). This is the native dish to the Gansu province of China. This dish is rare in that it is one of few Chinese-American dishes to maintain the principle of fan-ts'ai. The basis of this principle is the division between fan, grains and other starch foods, and ts'ai, vegetable and meat dishes. To prepare a balanced meal, it must have an appropriate amount of both fan and ts'ai, and ingredients are readied along both tracks. Sha cha beef is not only a superb example of fan-ts'ai, but a traditional dish dating back thousands of generations.
Schabeefsteak is the commonly used term in the kitchens of asian restaurants in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. This is the colloquial form of the word. Also used as an expression of agreement or as a greeting.
Shacha sauce (also spelled sa cha sauce) or paste is a Chinese condiment primarily used in Fujian, Chiuchow, and Taiwanese cuisines. It is made from soybean oil, garlic, shallots, chilis, brill fish, and dried shrimp. It has a savory and slightly spicy taste.
The ingredient has multiple uses:
as a base for soups
as a rub for barbecued meats
as a seasoning for stir fry dishes
as a component for dipping sauces, for example as used in hot pot meals |||Are you sure it's not "Szechuan?" That means it's spicy. It's strips of beef, stir-fried with vegetables and noodles.|||Cha just means Fried or Fry. Sa? I'm not sure...what's that? I'm quite sure there's spelling error on the menu....
Yesterday I ordered Chinese Take out and I had no clue how much to tip the delivery guy! Is it the same as if you were at a Restaurant? I order about 40$ worth of food, and tipped the guy 5$. Was that too much? Or Too little? Thanks.|||It doesn't really matter how much you order. I mean, the guy is going to drive to your house whether you order one thing or fifty things.
I always tip $3 - $5 depending on their punctuality (if they specified how long it should take, then how well did they stick to that?) and their politeness when they deliver my food.|||seems like a generous amount, i wouldn't do anymore than that, but usually a couple bucks should suffice|||I usually tip like $3-5 depending on how much I order|||I think that seems about right. I always tip $3.00 even on small packages, if they have to carry a lot of things I'll tip $5.00.|||wow , can i deliver chinese take out to your home? I think you over payed a bit but it was a nice gesture since they are very poor people and need the money. If the person was polite and got the food there on time then i guess it was worth it. I usually get these bums that deliver pizza and they just stand there ,with their earrings in one ear and tattoos all over the arms, and when i go to the door they stand there and just give me the price. I say ok hang on a second and they give me this huge sigh, like i am putting them out . I have also had some delivery people that come to the door and have their boyfriends or girlfriends in the vehicle waiting on them so they are in a hurry and i just write out my check as slowly as i can just to wart them. That is rude on both of their parts . I usually give them 2$ and that is about all i can afford , the price of pizzas are way overpriced anyway.|||well i would just give him the normal - 15%. so on a 40 dollar meal it would be 6 dollars. my friend used to just double the tax. maybe it is different with delivery people; maybe you give them less?|||you did right|||15% for normal service, more during rain, snow or other poor weather.

This is natural human reaction, and I have nothing against a good meal, while we can afford one.
But we would still need to understand why we got into the crisis in the first place.
And if we do understand the main reasons we will see, that it is us who has to solve it. The times when people left everything to a king, queen, general, politicians, any great leader or even a God like figure and those figures worked out a solution for everybody, those times are gone.
We are all interconnected, together like one big family.

I like the simple cabbage and pork egg rolls from Chinese take out. A lot of these places have similar egg rolls. I have tried to make them, but my flavors are off... really off. The only recipes I find are complicated and full of mushrooms, bean sprouts, carrots and other such veggies. I know most people find the more complex recipes desirable, but I prefer the simple pork and cabbage egg roll. Does anyone have a recipe for these? PLEASE! It is driving me crazy, not to mention broke with all the failed attempts.|||TRADITIONAL EGG ROLLS
One cup green cabbage (shredded)
One cup purple cabbage (shredded)
One quarter cup of carrots (shredded)
One quarter cup of soy sauce
One quarter cup of teriyaki sauce
One package of egg roll wraps
Mix all of your ingredients together in a bowl be sure to cover the cabbage and carrots in the soy sauce and teriyaki sauce so it is evenly blended.
Open you egg roll package and remove the first wrap. Place a quarter cup of the ingredients in the center of the wrap in a line then roll the wrap to close. Repeat till you have the desired amount of egg rolls.
Preheat you oven to 325 degrees. Using a cookie sheet or shallow baking pan lightly grease and place your egg rolls about two inches apart, bake for 10 minutes. The wrap should be a very light brown color
Tip
Using prepared (shredded) coleslaw mix will save you a lot of time in preparing your egg rolls.

I didn't bring a lunch to work today because I need to go grocery shopping. Here are my options for lunch today:
Chinese take out
McDonald's
Taco Bell
Rally's
Subway (I had my husabnd's left over Subway for dinner last night so I don't really want that)
Where and what would you order?|||Panda Express - chow mien, orange chicken and mandarin chicken.
Or Rally's, their fries are awesome!|||Taco Bell - New Tortada is great
Rally's - Baconzilla! Burger is wonderful for bacon lovers!
ENJOY! Its good sometimes to forget to go grocery shopping haha|||Subway =]
At Subway i order, cheese, lettuce, onion, pepper and mayonnaise =]|||Chinese, ask them to just steam the veggies (no msg or oil) and rice on the side. You can have your meat for dinner.|||Do you have a Wendy's? they are so good! subway would have been my choice but you said you already had it. so how about wendy's or else salad somewhere?|||What's Rally's?|||Chinese|||The supreme nachos from taco bell.|||Any pizzerias around?!! Pizza|||I'm with Lone Wolf..
Can you order an extra wonton soup for me?
:-)|||chinese take out......can you get me an egg roll too? thanks
I went to a fancy chinese restaurant and had moo shi chicken and it was AMAZING! Since I can't go there that often, I looked on the menu of my local chinese take out and noticed they didn't have moo shi chicken but they had moo shoo beef. Is it the same thing but with beef instead?
Thanks.|||They are probably the same item. Keep in mind that even burger joints make their burgers differently. Both restaurants will use similar ingredients but often fancier places will give you very thin rice flour "tortillas" while lower grade restaurants will give you a wheat tortilla similar to what you'd find in a Mexican restaurant.
Personally, I prefer the thin tortilla and either vegetarian or shrimp Mu Shu (yes, another spelling!). Be sure to dab a small amount of hoisin sauce and use some green onions with your filling.|||One reads like a pepper sneeze and the other reads like a cheese sneeze...
Bless you...
my sister brought chinese take out and i dont think im gonna finish it all tonight..how do you reheat it to make it taste the same..will it work on the microwave??if not how would you reheat it using the oven or frying pan|||Reheating Fried Rice & Chicken:
InstructionsThings You'll Need:
Left over fried rice
A microwaveable bowl
A paper towel
Water
Step 1Put your leftover fried rice in a microwaveable container.
Step 2Get a paper towel, wet it, and then squeeze most of the moisture back out. You want the paper towel to be a little more than damp, but not dripping.
Step 3Spread the paper towel back out and place it over your bowl of leftover fried rice.
Step 4Microwave the fried rice for between 2-3 minutes depending on the temperature and heating ability of your microwave and the portion size of fried rice. I tend to err on the longer side. If you have a very large amount of fried rice -- over two cups -- you may need to extend the cooking time to 4-5 minutes.
Step 5Let the rice stand for 2-3 minutes after it's done cooking. The paper towel will have steamed the rice and both the paper towel and the bowl of fried rice will be VERY HOT.
Step 6After the rice has sat for 1-2 minutes, carefully remove the paper towel and throw it away. Use an over mitt if necessary. After that, you're free to enjoy a great tasting bowl of reheated fried rice!|||It will work in the microwave, and fried rice is probably easier to heat in the microwave. Just put the food in for a minute at a time, stirring in between each interval. Once it starts to get warm you can start putting it in for 30 seconds at a time, still stirring in between.
However, I prefer to heat up chicken or mixed veggies on the stove. It gets much more evenly heated that way, I think!
It's really easy. Just put it in a pot so that it spreads out well, the chicken shouldn't go higher than 2 or 3 inches. Add a little bit of water (maybe about 1/4 cup, or a little less for an average sized serving). The water amount doesn't have to be exact; I usually turn the faucet on high for about a second and call it good. The water is just to help heat up the chicken and keep it from sticking to the pan, and also to add back any water into the sauce that might have evaporated overnight.
Turn the stove on medium to medium high heat and keep an eye on it... stir every once in a while so it doesn't stick to the bottom. It will start to sizzle. After a little while, take out a thick piece of chicken, cut it in half and feel the middle, just to make sure it's all the way warmed up.
Then transfer to a plate, and enjoy!
Edit: Forgot to add, make sure you don't put any metal in the microwave (don't use the takeout container if it has metal handles!) and make sure you use a dish that is microwave safe.|||Pour it into a bowl or onto a dish
add 1 or 2 tbsp water
cover with wax paper and heat it for 3 minutes.|||mirowave will be faster if i was u ill put in the oven for 5 mintues
I was at a Chinese take out that makes fries, wings, eggrolls and all that,
put a heap of clams in the deep fryer.|||Sure... restaurants can use the same fryer for any type of food. There is no health code rule for using the same fryer for potatoes and meat. This is because fryers are generally set at about 350 F., which is hot enough to kill any bacteria associated with raw chicken, seafood or any type of meat.
However, if you happened to be vegan and asked the restaurant manager about this, and the manager lied to you, it would be an ethical issue.
Restaurants, just like food companies that sell packaged food in grocery stores, have to follow "truth in advertising" laws. If a restaurant manager lied to you about this type of thing, you could probably file a lawsuit.|||There is nothing wrong with the fact that most restaurants are not equipped with 8-10 fryers to cook all the different foods available. I am happy that Rab takes the time to dump his oil and clean the fryer before each order is prepared. If you have allergies or specific diet requirements and the restaurant does not take that into consideration then shame on them. Celiacs are the very common now and all we do is stove top fry a menu item and we would do the same thing for any other individual that requires special attention. As for Rab I would make him something with special sauce. You do not have to be a jerk! We are in the food service business not food servant!|||Well, 350 degrees....is NOT hot enough to kill all....Here is why I know....My husband is severely allergic to FISH and SEAFOOD....we have ordered fries for him at a Fast Food Restaurant that used the same fryer for Fish....He only had 4-5 french fries and had a bad allergic reaction. I called the the Fast Food place and let them know what had happened, and they were honest with me and told me yes they did use the same oil for the fish and the fries, eggrolls etc. We learned a valuable lesson. Now we let the waitresses know about his allergy as we order, to be sure they are aware of any cross contamination, as I can order seafood out as I have no allergy to it.
I was told restaurants did have to have a separate fryer for fish and seafood, for just that reason. I could have gotten bad information, but that was the only time this happened to him in many many years.|||Hi,///// This is not good practice,not because it is a health problem to start with although it could become one. It is because whoever cooks like that is lazy and has no respect for the customer or themselves for that matter because the can hardly call themselves a cook. Mixing so many different things in the oil will taint it and shorten the life of it. I would never eat there again - but I would tell them why first -preferably in front of other customers when they were busy. if they ever do get busy that is!
all the best. Rab|||As the others have said, sure they can. It does taint the oil, as one answerer said. My grandpa owned a restaurant for years and had one fryer for fish, one for chicken, one for beef, and one for non-meat products. May seem excessive to have that many fryers, but everyone swore the foods there tasted better.
Like Chinese take out?
I used to get this at Imperial Plaza in Lexington Kentucky, it had a certian twack, and I don't have any idea how it was made!|||Shrimp In Lobster Sauce

Add the rest of the sauce ingredients. Bring them to a boil and add the cornstarch to thicken the sauce lightly. Turn off the heat. Stir in the beaten egg, pulling the clumps of egg into thin strands with chopsticks as they cook. Stir in the cooked shrimp to coat them with the sauce. ----

My boyfriend and I have recently began eating Chinese take out very often (maybe 1 or 2 times a week to every other week), and I'm starting to wonder if its too much, and if it is unhealthy for you, like eating McDonald's all the time? Anyone have an idea??|||Most of Chinese food, especially in the USA, is full of Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) which is very unhealthy and over 30% of the population has allergic reactions to it to one degree or another.
MSG has also been linked to Alzheimer's. Not that it causes it but can be a trigger to set it off if you have it in your family history.
go to a search engine and bring up information on MSG and you will never go near the stuff again.|||It could be.|||Yes. Some of it is even worse. It is not even real Chinese food. It's basically fast food.|||yes, it is. I thought it was a healthier alternative to basic fast food myself, till I watched a report stating that it has way too much sodium (salt) in it. It suggested breaking the meal up into two meals...one today and one tomorrow.|||seems like it.. i was actually wondering the same thing like the other day.. it tastes so good and its made fairly quick & easy, i dont think it can be too healthy for you|||Personally, I think Chinese takeout TASTES very much better than Occidental fast food, and it does usually have more vegetables, but it also has just as much fat and usually way, way more sodium. The secret to healthy eating is not precisely WHAT you eat but HOW MUCH you eat and exercise. Oriental cuisine can easily be part of a balanced diet and workout program, just as McDonald's and Burger King can be part of a healthy lifestyle.|||Chinese food are healthy and real food . I working at the chinese restaurant, you use fresh vegetables, meat and vegetable oil. even though all the meat , they trimmed all the fat. you can not compare as McDonald's. but i recomend order from restaurant , they are more fresh than fast food.|||It is generally healthier than eating fast food, unless you are sticking with things like Chicken Soo Guy, general Tao's chicken, Sweet and Sour anything or other highly processed foods . Outside of these dishes, the biggest problem is an overabundance of sodium, which is contributory to hypertension( high blood pressure)
If you are mostly going for simple chow mein, fried rice and chop suey dishes and dishes with lots of vegetables, you'll do fine eating chinese a couple of times each week. The next biggest problem will come from the large amounts of MSG often used in North American chinese style dishes. some people actually react to the large aounts of MSG, and this is actually documented as 'chinese restaurant syndrome'.
So, eat the simple dishes , with lots of vegetable, rather than the breaded and battered dishes and don't use too much soy sauce( very high in salt content) and you'll be better off than if you were eating burgers and fries on a regular basis, provided you don't have hypertension problems or a reaction to MSG|||Depends on how it is cooked and what you are eating. If you are eating mostly vegetables and white rice, you aren't doing too bad although brown rice would be better for you. You can reduce the fat by asking for your food to be cooked in broth and not fat. You are however eating a huge amount of sodium and probably MSG. Asian food is easy to cook at home, why not check out recipes online and start cooking real food for yourself? You'll have more control and feel better about what you are putting in your body. Here's a question for you, how many Asian people do you see eating at most "chinese" fast food places. They won't eat the stuff either.|||Yes ! Most of it is fried & the sodium levels are through the roof !|||it's probably very close. but not all chinese food is as bad as mcdonalds or other fast food places. if you get just rice or brocolli and rice or something of that sort, then it's going to be rather healthy.|||Yes. Both are made of crabby genitals.|||Much Much better for you|||I THINK THAT IT IS THE SAME AS EATING FAST FOOD.|||It is bad,but does not have as much greese as fast food. Also when you eat the rice you are still getting grains and vegetables so its not that bad.|||no offense to the chinse people but have u seen how skinny they are u dont think they eat that stuff everyday in china and usally wenever i eat one plate i notice they serve u more vegtables then meat or chicken or watever so i think chinese food is actually off course im not a nutrsionist lol|||You will probably get more vegetables, but all that sodium and the amount of sauce used in many of the dishes is not good for you. It depends on what you eat from the restaurant and what you order from McDonalds. Neither is very healthy that is for sure. I still eat both though. You only live once right?|||really chinese food (not the fake Americanized) can be pretty good for you depending on what you are eating. but sometimes chinese food contains MSG, not so good for your body.|||Yes, it is.|||I think is as bad, but chinese food have a larger variety of things in there. fast food is oil, meat, bread, and potatoe

I think I am paranoid but I get so scared to eat pork since I know someone that got the worm on her brain. I see pork baby back ribs, pork chinese take out food, or mexican carnitas and I don't know if I should trust them or not. I know the meat has to be a certain temperature but how can one know if it was cooked that well? I love pork but I am just too scared. I never cook pork myself so basically all I want to know is about restaurant pork. Thanks so much.|||Are you sure it was from pork? Trychinosis has been virtually eliminated as a threat in the US and it doesn't go into the brain.|||points|||What worm on the brain are you talking about?
Trichinosis, which used to be gotten from pork is a parasite that resides in your muscles, not your brain. You have almost no chance of getting trichinosis from USDA inspected pork even if it is cooked rare.|||If you are talking about the worm that causes trichinosis, that is really not a cause for concern any longer. The few cases in the United States are mostly the result of eating undercooked game or home reared pigs. It is most common in the developing world and where pigs are commonly fed raw garbage. So, if you are buying your pork from a grocery store or butcher's shop you are pretty sure that the meat will not have the worm: today's pigs are not fed raw garbage but pig feed.
Regardless of which meat you are cooking, you should have an instant read meat thermometer. Then all you do is cook at the temperature suggested for the time suggested, then stick what you've cooked with the thermometer to read what the internal temperature is.|||Just make sure you cook any meat thoughly.|||What the PORK are you talkin' about?
Shut up and eat!|||I don't know about anything in pork that causes a worm , but my husband is a G.M. at a Bar-B-Q restaurant and pork is safe to eat when it has reached 165 F for at least 15 minutes.|||I was scared about it too, when I was a kid I heard about it.
You have to cook pork meat very well.
To make sure it麓s really cooked you have to cut it and check inside
Temperature is the most important to kill it
We like to eat pork in many ways and my mother always make sure that it麓s very well cooked. In my country there are many traditional foods made with pork meat, my grand mother used to cook them for us some weekends and the whole family used to eat together. So we have been cooking it for a long time and nobody is sick.
We never let us to forget that it may be delicious but it is pork meat and you have to cook it properly.
Don麓t be scared. Any kind of food can be dangerous if it isn麓t properly cooked or storaged.
But if you are still worried, read about it, I think here in Mexico I have seen some books about parasites while my sister was studying medicine, and I bet you will find some in your city.
People may tell you that it doesn麓t exist, but it does exist, you will find real information in medicine books or specialized books.
I read one of the answers about how long and at what temperature you have to cook pork, I think that麓s a good advice.|||it is ok... my diet cant be without pork, and didnt get any worm

I do like crablegs, I just don't seem to like lobster.

I'm looking for a good Chinese beef and broccoli stir fry recipe (The way they make it for Chinese take out.) Every time my mom makes it the broccoli gets soggy and is not firm like the broccoli from the restaurants. Also, the beef doesn't taste the same (nor do we know how to make the sauce.) Can anyone give me the recipe for Chinese beef and broccoli stir fry takeout/restaurant style? Please and thank you!|||The beef is usually cooked twice. A mixture of cornstarch and egg white is made and the beef is placed in the cornstarch mixture then fried. The beef is removed and set aside.

Sauce I have 2 recipes for you to try.
#1
1 Tb dark soy sauce
1 Tb light soy sauce
1 Tb oyster sauce
1 Tb dry sherry
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp sugar
If you want the sauce thick add a bit of cornstarch and if you do that add a bit of water as well. About 1 tsp cornstarch and 1/4 to 1/2 cup water
Beef and Broccoli recipe
2 Tb peanut oil
1/2 pound broccoli par boiled, thinly sliced
1 Clove garlic peeled and crushed
1 thin slice ginger-root or 1/8 tsp ginger
1 tomato seeded and cut into 6 wedges
1/2 - 3/4 pound flank steak cut across grain into slices 1/8 inch thick
Heat oil in large skillet or wok add broccoli garlic and ginger, stir fry 2 minutes add tomato and stir fry 1 minute. Reduce heat and push vegetables to the side, or remove from pan if you don't have room, add beef and stir fry 1 minute, sprinkle in sherry. Mix remaining ingredients sprinkle over beef and fry 1/2 minute.
This recipe does not say to twice cook the beef but I like the texture of the meat when it is coated in the cornstarch mixture. ( both are good.)

I plan on making 2 varietys of chocolate bark for gifts this christmas...peppermint and peanut. How early can i make this, wrap it in their little plastic/christmas/chinese take-out containers (so cute).
I have some days off next week and i would like to get them done if i could.|||As long as you store it in an airtight container, I think that you would be safe to go ahead and start.

We have some rice leftover from Chinese take-out, but you know it's gotten kinda tough. It's still edible, but not that appealing.|||This works for all types of rice:
Add 1-2 tablespoons of water (preferably hot) to the container (if microwaveable). Cover, making sure you leave a small vent for steam to escape, and microwave for 3-5 minutes. Let the rice rest for like 30 seconds as the rice will be reaaaaalllllyyyy hot. Fluff up with a fork and you're ready to go!!!|||After you take it out of the refrigerator, separate the rice thoroughly with a spoon. Place 3 to 4 teaspoon or water and mixed well. Cover the rice with wet tissue then place in microwave. Put in high setting for 3 to 4 minutes. Voila! Report Abuse
|||I like to add water to the container when I put it away. Then it's soft when I take it out and I can pan fry it in butter. It's very yummy. Report Abuse
|||add butter and heat up. Report Abuse
|||feed it to the dog and start fresh Report Abuse
|||Put it in a colander and run really hot water over it in the sink. Works for me! Report Abuse
|||You are not supposed to reheat rice Report Abuse
|||The first answer is the correct one other than frying in butter. Does that ever sound good. Report Abuse
|||You need to transfer the left over rice in a sealed tupperware before leaving it in the fridge. Report Abuse
|||put in a colander and pour boiled water over it,but dnt re0heat more than once!! Report Abuse
|||I always get the best results by putting it in one of those metal colanders; putting the colander in a pot with 2-3 inches of water, covering and steaming for about 4 minutes. But the idea of the wet paper towel and microwaving it sounds like it would work also. Report Abuse
|||just soak a paper towel and lay it over the rice, microwave. done. Report Abuse
|||OK the white rice on the side comes with the order, right? To buy it separately is what, a buck fifty? The cost of the energy and time to reheat it is more than the price of a new side order. Report Abuse
|||add vinegar and microwave. Report Abuse
|||What I personally do is this
Wet a paper towel and place it over the rice, and then place it in the microwave and microwave it for 2 minutes. It always comes out hot and moist for me.

|||That's not an easy thing to do, but try adding a little bit of water to it, then pop it in the microwave covered for a minute.|||Add a couple TB of water and mirowave 3 minutes or so.
Make sure you have it partially covered with a lid just barely opened to vent.|||Pour hot water over the rice|||This will even work for Minute Rice! soak a paper towel in water and wring it out slightly so it's not dripping everywhere.

I'm new to the area and would love some suggestions for Chinese take out places! My favorites in Chinese food are pork dumplings (gyoza) and chicken lo mein, so if you know of any places in my area that have perfected these basics, I'd greatly appreciate the help. :)|||The only Chinese place I know in Studio City is Chin Chin. They have great dumplings. You can also try Little Buhda on Cahuena, near Universal City.
I went to a Chinese restaurant not sure what to order and the guy didn't speak English so I left with a menu and here is the question
What is the difference between
Chow mein
Low mein
chop Suey
and what do you ususally order from a Chinese take out?|||OK this is what I think not what I know...And it's going by what my chinese resturaunt serves.
chow mein is crunchy noodles
low mein is cooked soft noodles (kinda like spaghetti)
Chop suey is just meat and veggies chopped up and cooked together
I order sweet and sour chicken with the sauce on the side. Fried rice, low mein noodles, and an egg roll. Sometimes I will get egg drop soup but if I eat that I can't eat my chicken :)
Hope it helps.
Bethany|||LoMein is really good!|||pineapple chicken is friggin good.|||don't know the difference,

i want to have it off by june next summer. i already lost 20 pounds but the weight loss slowed down.
my plan is to work out an hour 4-5 times a week, and eat 1000-1500 calories a day. i know i will cheat every once in awhile and eat chinese take out but i mean about how many months you think it will take?|||Losing that amount of weight in ten months is a very attainable goal. That leaves you plenty of time to take it off in a healthy way (1-2 pounds a week) and to be very active, so that you'll be toned once you've reached your goal.
How smart you are to start this early and not wait until the last minute...Good luck!
|||Probably 5 to 6 months. I lost 30 pounds in about 3 months just watching what I ate and working out 4 to 5 times a week but it slows down the less weight you have to lose. Stick with it and don't get discouraged if it doesn't come off as quickly as you like. Eventually you will get there if you work at it. The main thing is that you will feel so much better. |||Well, to lose weight in a healthy way, you should be losing about 1-2 pounds a week. So in one month, at the most, you could lose about 10lbs. That way, I think it would take about 4 -5months. It's okay to cheat sometimes! We all need a little break :)
Good luck!|||if you stick to your plan, you are going to have the extra 20 off by next summer- that i am sure of.
Recently moved to Milpitas, and am looking for a good Chinese take-out restaurant in the area where I can order in English. Hoping to find someplace which serves good, "American" chinese food like sweet and sour pork and salt and pepper pork chops.|||Grand Palace (1628 Hostetter Rd Ste F San Jose, CA 95131) has really good chinese food, and it's closer to real chinese food than a lot of places IMO. I can't quite remember if the english translations on the menu are accurate or not, but you can definitely order in english. they have sweet and sour pork (it's a real chinese dish, not "american" chinese only!) as well.
if you prefer something closer to american chinese food (i am of this opinion because the sweet and sour pork there is more ketchup-y than the authentic chinese ones), try mayflower at the great mall, milpitas.
happy feasting!|||happy hunting have chop sticks will travel...................
I'm hungry, really hungry.
Only two options I have are a cheeseburger and fries from a diner, or chicken and broccolli with white rice from a Chinese take out place. The Chinese food has a lot of sauce and I know it' filled with MSG and sodium.
I'm really looking for the one with less cholesterol and fat, calories too but it's not that serious.
Which one?|||It depends on the burger, but I think cheeseburger and fries are definitely more fattening. If you opt for the chinese food, you can minimize your fat intake by not drenching your rice in sauce. As one person suggested, you can ask for brown rice. Not all chinese food is fattening. It all depends on the dish. The broccoli in the chinese food will at least offer you vegetables, whereas a burger and fries gives you lettuce and tomatoes at most. That's not even a serving of vegetables. If you do go for chinese food, you can look for healthy options and avoid dishes that have the meat fried (i.e. sweet and sour pork, etc). Hope you found something that works for you. Enjoy.|||I would first have to say where each one is made and what oils they are made with.
For example some cheeseburgers are baked. And Chinese food is almost always fried if it is fast-food. So depending how and what the meal is made should tell you, which is more fattening.
Sorry I know I didn't give a direct answer, but if you want one here it is:
Go with the cheeseburger and order it without the buns, and get fries with natural sea salt.
Go with the Chinese and you should order the platter with the most vegetables to balance out any MSG if there is any.|||You need to provide more info such as portion sizes of each as both are fattening. For a less fattening option, choose the Chinese food with brown rice instead of white, nix the sauce and if applicable, remove the skin from the chicken and have extra broccoli..|||Chinese food isn't fattening... It's almost like eating air. You need a lot of it to get fat XD Why do you think people in Asia are so fit? Their food isn't fattening... It's GOOD for you.|||Chinese is your better option, but it depends if the chicken in the Chinese is deep fried. that will add a lot of fat. sometimes you can ask them to not put MSG too.|||PROBABLY CHINESE FOOD, BUT YOU CAN ASK THE RESTAURANTS ABOUT LOW CALORIE BURGERS TOO. LIKE APPLEBEE'S HAS SOME REALLY GOOD FOOD THAT ARE LESS FATNING.|||chinese food is jus greese depending on ur order but a burger and fries is basically ground beef in bread with potatoes, 3 heavy foods! the burger and fries is way more fattening.|||cheeseburger and fries is the worst dinner
i would go with chicken with broccoli and white rice because i think its more healthier
why dont you just get something else thats healthier in the chinese take out place|||Ever see a fat Chinaman? Ever see a fat boy waddle out from McDonalds? You do the selecting. I'd go for the Chinese food.|||they r both super fattening but id probbaly go with the chinese food just because broccolis a vegetable and its good for you and rice is a grain|||I work at Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and most definitely a cheeseburger and fries is more fattening then Chinese food|||Cheeseburger and fries|||I think you already picked but I'd have to say cheeseburger and fries.|||CHEEZZBUGAAA IS FAT!|||cheeseburger and fries|||burger and fries is prolly more fattening|||Cheese burger!!!!!!!

Right now there're Iron chefs representing American, Italian, Greek and Japanese cuisine. Why not Chinese? Chinese cuisine is unarguably one of the most popular in the world. Chinese take-out is just as popular as pizza and other American fast food.|||because they can't handle china's awesomeness.|||There all on Iron Chef Japan|||Well, lets see.........Chef Kat Kora is famous for Greek Cuisine but is also an accomplished Pasty Chef. Chef Michael Simon is from Cleveland, family from Greece and cooks every type of cuisine, Chef Molto Mario is authentic Italian, through and through but has won many challenges cooking Spanish, French and pastries as well. Chef Bobby Flay has a main background in the fusion of New York, Spanish, Mexican but has won many challenges cooking Italian, French and Asian fusion, Chef Morimoto is classic Japanese, but can cook ANY cuisine...........but, they all can because they are the creme de la creme of Chefs and there are probably millions more out there to find and put up on the challenging block. Yes, Chinese cuisine is extremely popular with all the flavors, technique and has influenced millions of other tastes around the world but then again, so does Spanish and Mexican cuisine. Why is there no French Chef? They practically invented cooking................ I think this show is about the food but I do agree with you on a certain level. I just love and respect that each Chef does have a certain area of expertise and comfortability of maybe one cuisine, but they also have the highest talents of cooking a myriad of cuisines as well. That's what it's about, in my opinion. This was an interesting question, thanks for asking and Have a GREAT Sunday!
When I get Chinese take out the rice is sticky...How can I make this at home?|||You need a rice cooker. That's why Chinese restaurant rice always tastes better. Or, you can buy glutinous rice at an Asian grocery store and cook it. Glutinous rice is very sticky and is used to cook desserts such as sweet sticky rice. The nonsweet version is served as a side with many dishes.
http://www.examiner.com/x-1445-Philadelp鈥?/a>|||Make sure to use Asian rice (imported from Japan, Thailand, Korea, etc). American-made rice doesn't have the same texture.
And the other answerer was right, cook the rice in a rice cooker. Don't use a pan. |||Its called Uncle Bens Express.. at your local..umm Walmart?
i was just wondering cuzzz we order Chinese take out soo?|||If the question is do they order delivery or takeout I would say mostly no. If the question is do they eat American food then the answer is the young generation and people with money do. Here are some differences.
-Chinese people tend to stay at McDonalds and KFC much longer than Americans do. We treat it as fast food that we get fast, eat and leave, or go through the drive through. Chinese will often spend an hour or more in the restaurant chatting. To them the atmosphere is part of the draw.
- American fast food is not cheap food in China. KFC and those restaurants are the same price if not a little more expensive than in the USA. People can get a better more filling meal at local Chinese restaurants for less than $2.
- Most older people don't like it. You will see mostly people under 30 eating American fast food. If you see older people there it is usually because they have a child or grandchild that made them go.
- Delivery at the office is getting more and more popular, but you rarely see people ordering delivery at home in China. Chinese people treat meals as social events more than Americans usually do.
Hope this answers your question|||you must understand that most "Chinese food" in America is Americanized Chinese food and very different from real Chinese food which is too exotic for most Americans. The wonton soup has seaweed in it. Other items include duck tongue, very spicy sauces and other things.
In China, you'll find a lot of other Asian food as well as other types. Italian, Mexican, and others. In China there are kiosks with quick take out for commuters and others looking for a quick bite. Most of it is Chinese food but you may occasionally find a McDonalds or something similar in larger cities.|||McD, KFCs are very few and only restricted to big metro es...considering billions of chinese population these restaurant don't even sell to one % of the population.
.In McD or KFC in Shanghai or Beijing, you will see 30% non-chinese travelers are eating the food they can trust...rest of the customers are young chinese kids who drops in there more to "show-off" rather than getting hooked by the taste. So they stay there for an hour hopping that at least somebody would see them:)
What you order as "Chinese Takeout" is miles away from authentic Chinese food....it's Chinese American Food. As far as eating out....urban chinese prefers to eat out than to make a meal at home....street side vending carts are the most popular....restaurants of all sizes also sell food till early morning....thousands of variety of food....they prefer eat out than take out....
Honestly speaking. according to Chinese taste.....American foods are bland.....unhealthy too. Obesity is not a major health concern in China becoz of their healthy food.|||I'd say merely the middle and upper class do. And they are not a large proportion of the Chinese population and they live in cities.
People living in rural areas still prefers traditional Chinese cuisine and they cook themselves.
In cities we have all those kind of western junk foods and young people love it especially.|||TO BE VERY HONEST WITH YOU A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE DO . BUT THE MINORATIES DO NOT. WHY BECAUSE THEY ARE VERY HEALTHY EATERS 95 PERCENTAGE OG THEM EAT WHITE RICE IN EVERY COURSE MEAL.|||Yeah, McDonalds, Burger king, etc. are all American and in China.|||They go to McDonald's, KFC, Pizza Hut, etc...|||Yeah. They like our junk food or fast food.|||Maybe when bored, or with a death wish.|||LOL! maybe!!|||of course|||We throw rice at weddings... do the Chinese throw hotdogs?
Ok so there is this Chinese take out place right by my house and I go there every once in a while to get some take out. Well actually you can say I go there to look at this one guy. I am 22 (gay guy) and he looks to be about 24. I see him and he is so dreamy and hott and good looking and everything about him is just perfect. I have no idea if he is gay but one thing for sure is he speaks no English so he never understands me when I talk to him.
He just smiles back at me when I talk and then some lady walks in and translates for him or something. But man he is really cute and I want to know what I should do here? Should I just learn Chinese so I can talk to him in Chinese and see if he would like to go out on a date with me? I am going crazy because I saw him like 2 days ago and he was happy to see me again but I cannot get him off my mind.|||Sounds like a crush to me, and a cute one at that!
I say you do learn a little chinese. Maybe don't be so forward and ask him out, but say something else like "I'm trying to learn chinese, do you know a good place where I can learn it?" or maybe say "I'd really like to learn Chinese, do you think you can teach me, I can teach you some English if you'd like?"
It shows that you're interested without throwing yourself too out there and feeling lame later.
If it fails, at least you made a new friend and picked up a new language. :)|||I feel for you-I have the biggest crush on the guy who works at my take-out Chinese place. I like order from there twice a week & its in the hood and there are like 3 take-out places closer to where I live.
Mine speaks perfect English, but unfortunately is straight. I mistake good service & freindly people for flirting too often.|||you are Infinitely more determined than i would be if you're willing to lean the language =S i do compliment you.
i might find out if he was interested in guys at all, then maybe if i was Very seriously interested learn some of the language, and in the meantime maybe text and/or email with translation, or something like that?
other than that, i really don't know =/.|||He's not smiling because he likes you he's smiling because he's confused. In their culture when they don't know what your saying or understand they smile.

Go head, you got this Closets.|||idk what to say. get an interpratpr or write it out. or just kiss him!|||Seems kind of silly, but just ask the girl to ask him out for you and if he says yes... learn chinese ;P
I have tried a few General Tso's chicken recipes from Recipezaar, but most of the recipes there seem to be fancy restaurant type recipes and taste NOTHING like the type of General Tso's you get from Chinese places that can be found in the mall or Chinese take-out places. For example, I LOVE the General Tso's from Manchu Wok but haven't been able to find a recipe that tastes even remotely like it.
Does anyone have any recipes that aren't the "fancy restaurant" type General Tso's but more like "fast food" type of General Tso's?|||Give this one a try...we love it:
General Tso's Chicken
By S. John Ross
* 1 lb chicken thighs, boned and cubed
* 3 eggs, beaten
* 1/2 cup and 2 tsp cornstarch
* 5 dried pepper pods
* 1-1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
* 2 tbsp rice wine
* 3 tbsp sugar
* 3 tbsp soy sauce
In a large bowl, thoroughly blend the 1/2 cup of cornstarch and the eggs; add the chicken and toss to coat. If the mixture bonds too well, add some vegetable oil to separate the pieces.
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce mixture by combining the 2 tsp cornstarch with the wine, vinegar, sugar and soy sauce.
First-Stage Frying: Heat 1-2 inches of peanut oil in a wok to medium-high heat (350-400o). Fry the chicken in small batches, just long enough to cook the chicken through. Remove the chicken to absorbent paper and allow to stand (this step can be performed well in advance, along with the sauce mixture, with both refrigerated).
Second-Stage Frying: Leave a tablespoon or two of the oil in the wok. Add the pepper pods to the oil and stir-fry briefly, awakening the aroma but not burning them. Return the chicken to the wok and stir-fry until the pieces are crispy brown.

Ok so first order of business for those of you who followed up on me from what happened earlier I am find now. Doing good been checked out and everything is in good working condition. Just have a little headache but that should go away soon they told me.
About the Chinese guy- He works at this Chinese take out place by my house and I see him there all the time. He looks to be about 24 and I am 22 (gay guy). Not sure if he is gay but every time I go he is there and will not take his eyes off me. I always talk to him but because he cannot understand me as he knows no English then he smiles and the Chinese lady has to translate for him. I wish to ask him out on a date but how? I am not sure what to do cause he knows no English and it would be weird having that lady next to us during dinner translating for him. Is it hard to learn Chinese? My goal was to ask him out on a date in Chinese. I saw him there like 3 days ago.|||I'm so not racist, if you like him, just be polite at him.
Why don't you ask someone who is good at Chinese and write down the words then give it to your boy?|||look up "want to go out sometime" or something like that on a translator and write it down (or save it to your phone or something) and look up all the possible answers he could say. you dont have to learn the whole language.|||Try this 我很喜欢你。 你愿意跟我约会马？It means I really like you. Would you go on a date with me. You can copy and paste or use google translate to learn how to say it.|||I used google translator to talk to a chinese person who spoke english. He was mad when he found out what I was doing.
How are you feeling btw, did you go to the hospital?|||You could ask some of your friends who know Chinese and ask them to write the words that you wanted to tell him down. But be careful, sometimes... you know... friends might play a prank on you.|||I honestly wouldn't bother with it, the relationship can't really progress anywhere if you guys can't communicate properly...
Chinese pick up line "Ching chong soy ting lee goau to sun", say that to him and he will be sucking ur cock.|||Google translate|||Are you serious?
Had Chinese food at a local Chinese take-out joint in my area. Had sesame chicken + fried rice, egg roll. This morning about 12 - 14 hours later I start throwing up. I didn't have a headache or anything, wasn't dizzy and didn't have a sore throat. Most of the vomit (ew) was more like stomach acid, but I know it came from the food I had last night that I mentioned. Does it sound like I have the Chinese Restaurant Syndrome? Your thoughts?|||Probably not .
Maybe an ingrdient used in it , you were allergic too
or you couldnt digest it properly .
Thats why you vomitted .
Make sure u drink lots of water .
And if this still keeps happening
go to the doctors
there might be something wrong with your digestions .|||Now days when u go2 any chinese rest, its not Chinese anymore, vietnam ppl have over here in CA taken over far to many of these restraunts use bad health sanitation.Hav called up health dept who have sited many in our cities(No hate)Health dept shut sev restraunts down,frm food poisoning,poor habits Report Abuse
like the ones you get chinese take-out in. i need to know how to measure it. is it length by width by height or something else like length by width by depth? and what order do you put it in?|||you need to times the length, width, and height to find the volume- or how much space it contains, if you just what the sides times the length and width of one side and multiply that by four.|||get a ruler and measure the height from top to bottom. then measure the bottom of the box from side to side. order?
I went to Paris, France about 4 years ago, and I was staying in the Montmartre area. There was this little spaghetti place that served different pasta types and sauces in chinese take-out boxes. Does anyone know the name of this place??? It would be very helpful! Thanks!|||It's probably "Pasta Break" on St. Germain.|||Sorry, there are so many restaurants in Paris and I am not familiar w/ this one. Perhaps you will jog your memory once you walk around Montparnasse. Even if you cannot find it again, there are plenty of nice cafes/restaurants to choose from.|||That sounds like the chain of restaurants called "Mezzo di Pasta". They're all over Paris. Link below goes to a map.|||More info??? Was it near the Sacre Coeur?..near/west of the Moulin Rouge?..Near the main drag (excuse the pun) around Pigalle/Clinchy/Blanche/Anvers?-landmark鈥?would help.
If you're a vegetarian, then don't you miss eating Chinese take-out or eating at Chinese restaurants, since most (if not many) Chinese dishes involve meat (i.e. sweet 'n sour pork, beef and broccoli, etc.)|||I'm vegan and I eat Chinese food all the time:
http://vegweb.com/index.php?board=374.0;鈥?/a>|||Americanized Chinese food has a lot of meat, but traditionally, the Chinese don't eat quite as much meat as it might seem. Also, most American Chinese restaurants have at least 5 or 6 tofu dishes and plenty of vegetable dishes too. The only thing is some use lo-mein or chow-mein noodles that have egg in them. As a vegan, you'd have to check on that. And some sauces are made using meat based broth or some fish products. But, it's super easy (and much cheaper!) to make your own Chinese anyway. Just last weekend I made some vegan General Tso's tofu & veggie chow-mein & it was delicious even to my non-vegan friends & family. The only thing missing was the fortune cookies because I forgot to buy them when I was out so I had a friend pick some up on her way over, but the ones she bought weren't vegan so I didn't have any. :(|||Chinese Restaurants make sesame tofu and general tso's tofu with rice. It is tasty and vegetarian.
I am lucky enough to also live near a chinese restaurant that sells vegetarian mock chicken, beef, pork, and duck. They taste like real meat but are made with vegetable protein, wheat gluten, and a sauce.|||No way! Traditional Chinese food is very light on the meat anyway (it's why there were so few incidences of cancer in China before they started eating more like us) and most dishes feature plenty of veggies - just leave out the meat! A lot of Chinese are Buddhists and they don't condone killing animals for food, so there are a LOT of veg Chinese places out there. Probably more so than any other kind of veg place, actually.|||Nope, there's still a lot of Veggie options at most Chinese take-out places. Some of the things I like are Vegetable egg rolls, vegetable fried rice, vegetable soup, lo mein noodles, etc... Now, Vegans on the other hand would probably have a hard time seeing as how a lot of the vegetarian dishes have egg... =0|||i still eat chinese. actually there is a chinese buffet in the town i live in, my boyfriend and i go there all the time, and they have a hibachi bar where you take a plate and fill it with veggies (cabbage, zuccini, mushroom, watercress, the works!) then you hand it to the chef and he puts it on the hibachi grill for you its great! i always load my plate, and the chef asks me every time "no meat??" lol i always say no. plus they have noodles and veggie rice so yeah, its good and i stil get my once a month chinese food fix :)|||Our local Chinese take-away offers some vegetarian items on the menu. They even made a dish I asked them to make up for me and its now one of my favourites when we get a take-away. Mixed vegetables with garlic and black bean sauce... Yum!!!!! They don't offer near as many choices as the Indian take-away though!!!!!|||Nah. I still go out with my friends to Chinese take-out places, and its not a problem, actually less of a problem than regualr American places (bob evans, fast foods, diners, stuff like that). They have a ton of veggie dishes, and veggie fried rice which I always ate a ton of anyways :)|||Many of your better Chinese restaurants offer vegetarian menu choices. YOu can also make you own Chinese meals.
BTW: Tofu comes from China, they call it Bean Curd.|||Most Chinese places have vegetarian choices sinse they eat very little meat anyway. When I first started out I did miss stuff like that but now I cannot see myself ever eating meat again.|||no
i have take away all the time
there are plenty vege options, the indians and chinese take aways have a LOT of vegetables in their foods|||Nope. I make my own. It's easier, cheaper and healthier. American chinese food is easy to make at home.|||they offered several really good option such as egg, fried vegetables and black bean pumpkin. Yummy!|||Morning Star Farms vegetarian sweet and sour chicken! And I still like rice and veggies.
Yum!|||i get mock duck
for Pizza orders or chinese take out probably not, but for a restaurant like Max and Ermas, the food is given by the bartenders and wasn't sure. What do you think? Thanks.|||You're supposed to but really the tipping thing is going way too far and I draw the line at tip jars in Dunkin Donuts. Stop the insanity!|||some times I do but I don't think they except it but some times I leave a $1.00|||You should ALLWAYS tip a bartender,their tips are what pays their bills and if you are occupying their time for just about any reason they deserve a tip.Bringing you your food even though its take-out is providing you a service when they could have been pouring someone else a drink. |||It depends if they do that good of a job to deserve it! Tips have to be earned!! They cant just get it when they feel like it. That includes waitors, bartenders, chinese, pizza delivery people, or whatever. If the service is excellent and they are on time doing well, a few bucks wouldnt hurt. Theres a difference between being a cheapskate and not tipping when they dont deserve a tip!|||NO! As a matter of fact that tip jar at the register is ANNOYING... Basically, ALL they are doing is bringing you your food, which you did the work of calling in and DRIVING to pick up.
If you are going tip them, then you should tip at McDonalds....And you didn't call McDs...|||No, and yes, as you suggest, for the latter types.|||I always tip. I tend to use the same places for take out and they remember me, so I think you get better service. I don't tip alot usually $1 or $2 dollars.
Chinese take-out is amongst the cheapest food you can get whereas Japanese (which doesn't even exist in take-out form around here) is always so expensive! Whose idea was that! haha|||Chinese food is more Americanized, therefore, more normal, inexpensive, very common foods can be used.
Japanese food uses more "specialty" ingredients- such as miso, seaweed, udon (noodles can be found here, but udon isn't the same as other noodles..).
Another thing to think of is the ingredients. I guess this ties into the more americanized food, but Chinese food uses less expensive ingredients. Japanese restaurants usually use expensive raw fish, highly trained sushi chefs, ect. It's more expensive.|||Japanese is more expensive because the food (usually Sushi) requires more expensive materials.
Take for example. Fatty Tuna which cost about 200 dollars for 3 lbs.
http://www.firstcoastgourmet.com/Toro_Fa鈥?/a>|||I definitely agree with lookng at the ingredients. Chinese uses a lot of noodle and rice, Japanese uses miso and seaweed and plenty of fish etc, amongst other things.|||That's bcz you have not go to the expensive Chinese resteraunt. There do are many expensive ones in the world.|||Look at the ingredients. That's usually a key feature.|||two words: cheap labor.

My sister ate Chinese take-out yesterday and now her stomach hurts. She can't walk and it's hard for her to sit up and has really bad abdominal pain. The food was from one of those ghetto joints in the hood, she even found a hair in it. Should I take her to the hospital or should she just take Motrin or something?|||You can get sick after eating any food that's contaminated. Her symptoms sound like all she really needs to do is go to the bathroom. If she had food posioning she would be throwing up and would have started throwing up with in about two hours of eating. Give her a laxative.|||yes you should take her to the hospital and sometimes you can get sick after eating chinese food because sometimes they don't really clean there hands when they make there food and one time at one of our Chinese food place those guy sneezed then he wiped his nose with is hands and touched our food ewwwwww!!!|||You can get sick from any food if it was not handled properly. Even tomatoes and cucumbers have been found to have food poisoning bacteria.
It would not hurt to bring her to a doctor.|||She should see a medical doctor, it might be food poisoning.It could also be M.S.G flavor enhancer,it makes many people ill
It seems every time I get Chinese take out it is different, with different ingredients adn different levels of spiciness, even though I order the same dish every time. Also, what is your favorite dish to order?|||It depends on the restaurant. I frequent certain ones and avoid others. Sometimes the chef will change (frequently at some places) and the food will be different. My favorite place has been very consistent for a long time now. Love it.
My favorite dish is just about anything that isnt seafood. Pork, beef, chicken, veggies, anything. People always tell me my love of Chinese food is gross because it's cats and dogs, but 1) I dont believe that, and 2) even if it was it tastes DELICIOUS.|||suck a dick or die muter ******|||i dont trust some chainese food from some restorante
I had some Chinese take out for dinner that made me feel really sick for the rest of the night. Do you think I can get a refund? I have the receipt and what I didn't eat.|||No.
You can't get a refund like this.
Maybe if you went straight back, within a half hour and complained because there was a dead rat in the rice, or maggots in the rice. Of course, these are typical ingredients for any chinese restraunt. LOL
Chinese food always makes me sick. I hope you're feeling better.|||Oh my, I hope you aren't serious.|||You should contact the Chinese and make a complaint. They will never know unless you tell them. I doubt whether they will refund you but you never know - they could give you a discount on your next purchase.|||GOOD LUCK!!!|||You might have a better case if you had got a medical doctor to certify "food poisoning", otherwise it's your word against them. Restaurant receipt and remainder food just mean you took out the food from that joint, nothing else.
Have experienced this before, one time in a posh Italian restaurant. Incidents like these always leave a bad impression of the restaurant permanently - avoid them like plague. May be a good idea to make some kind of noise in the local media and relevant consumer body.|||i would go back and complain to the manager. if he gives you static, report him to the board of health. i was in a japanese restaurant one time, and my friend lifted his spoon and there was a bug in the soup. i had soup in my mouth and i spit it back in the bowl. i insisted we leave IMMEDIATELY and he though we had to pay. i said HELL no. i called the manager, explained in a polite quite voice, and we left without paying one thin dime|||I highly doubt it. Most likely it's food poisoning or something. You should call the restaurant and complain, and maybe avoid that place and try a new place?|||highly doubt it, the take out place does not know what conditions you kept the food under or when you consumed it after it left their restaurant, so proving it would be very difficult on your part unless a few dozen others had the same complaint on the same night from eating the same food........but, good luck
can anyone tell me how to make chips (french fries) the chinese take out way? they taste so good what oil do they use? do they deep fry them? and also chinese curry sauce how do they make that if anybody has tried there fries and curry you will know what i mean|||I'm like you, I love chips from the Chinese takeaway. So much nicer than the sort you get from fish and chip shops. I think it is because the oil they are fried in is also used for cooking chinese food, so it is slightly flavoured.|||MSG!|||Well my wife who is Indian uses turmeric, hot peppers, some cilantro, and whatever she has on had, maybe some garam masala.
And sauces can vary a lot, but we don't call them sauces, but gravies.|||chinese do not usa Curry curry has been used by Indian,the chips ,if you want similar and better frite in peauts or corn or sun flower oil no deep frite,ifm you use the kind of vegetetable oil used in the take away will became no good.more do no use frozen chips that you find in the supermarket but cut the fresh one no more thick than thin,i am a chips lover and i studied the best way for enjoy it, one way for enjoy more is to put the chips hot in a glass pot were bifore you have to put many garlic thin cutted and rosmary and salt put the chips there shake and enjoy|||they are chinese!!|||nihaw , go to www.allrecipes.com

every time i get Chinese take-out, delivery, or go to a buffet the chicken is always hard, thick, and small turd-shaped? it looks that way from every single chinese restaurant. One time i went to a chinese restaurant and sat in and the food was really fresh and good, but why does the chicken always look and feel weird and clumpy?|||You're actually schizophrenic and seeing things. In a past life you were a Chinese servant Cinderella type who had to fetch buckets of water, rub the aged emperor's corned & flaking feet, and just before bed, you had to behead the royal chickens. In order to evade this sickening and onerous task, one night you cleverly substituted the chicken parts with turds from the royal chamber pots. The next day, the Chinese chefs used your turd substitutes, killing off the entire village. You suffer from schizophrenic delusions brought about by pent up guilt from your past life. Better stick to Thai food.|||because you have made poor choices in restaurants. If you can't trust what you get for take out how can you ever go there to eat in?|||Chinese chickens are retarded|||One question, why do you keep ordering chicken if it reminds you of a turd?|||U went in to one of those the cook is learned by garbage in and garbage out.|||Probably because it might be one!!|||It ain't chicken darling. Meow.|||hmm

you know when you get vegetables from chinese take out and it has that sauce in it? what are the ingredients? is it vegetarian/vegan?|||It is made from stock -- usually chicken stock, corn starch and either soy sauce or salt. Unless the Chinese restaurant specializes in vegetarian dishes - they rarely have vegetable stock on hand.|||That depends, and you would have to ask the specific shop but it quite often contains oyster sauce, or another fish based sauce, which is not vegetarian.|||No, it's not vegetarian. But you can easily duplicate it at home using vegetable stock
It's like everywhere I go in any state, there's like so many chinese food restaurants. In 1 street, here in NJ, there is like 1 chinese take out on the left side of the street and another chinese take out, on the other side of the street. Why are there so many and less Japanese, Korean, etc?|||Same in London, also with Indian takeaways.
Its because many Chinese are proud of their cooking and have potential to make a successful business out of it...so they do. It's a common practise among them. And its obviously very popular cuisine, so why stop if the money is coming in?
Multicultural areas have more variety of restaurants too, which contributes.
Enjoy your Chinese food.|||so, um.. again, how many states have you been in? apparently you've not been to mine where every other storefront it's italian.
yeh, until you've done some actual traveling.... don't go on about how it's all that, when it's not.
(on my street... it's all wine and seafood joints... how about that one uhummm?)
and in NOVA there's not one chili joint to salvage my rectum muscles.. then when i ask for it they go "are you from up north".

and give me sashimi! (now that's good jap cuisine!)
and other places i used to reside it was peruvian foods to salvadorian and iranian.....
heh, so far you'[ve only mentioned ONE state and that doesn't count.|||Most of the Japanese or Korean restaurants I've seen are trying to be trendy and expensive. Whereas Chinese places seem to be able to offer a selection of exotic Asian cuisine that's both delicious and affordable.|||Because Americans enjoy cheap, plentiful heaps of food loaded with preservatives. This is straight from the Burning Bush.

I've tried searching it out and I always came up short. Either the website was more informational without calorie counts, or it had calorie counts but they were very few and were mostly concerned with home cooked chinese food. I'm looking for a clear listing of most all chinese takeout meals and their calorie counts. Particularly, at minimum, if you can find me the calorie count of a pint of shrimp and broccoli with the cup of white rice, I'd love you. That's what I eat 90% of the time. I'm on a binge lately trying to find calorie counts for as much as possible, and the chinese food has just been giving me a headache because I usually have at minimum one chinese meal a week.

Whenever I go to a chinese take out place and I get bbq sauce, I have no idea what type of sauce it is! I have tried finding it and I just can't and they never tell me. What is it made of?|||Its the dripping of the ribs when they cook or the stock. Typically mixed with either hoisin and sugar plus a little ketchup or they mix it with LKK chinese marinade.|||it's probably soya sauce.
or it could be a mix of different spices but i'm pretty sure there is soya sauce in there.

I want to get chinese take out but I was wondering, how much does a pint and a quart of fried rice usually cost? How do I find a cheap place or are they all the same?
I looked online, but I cant find menus :/|||It will vary depending on if it is one of their specialties and if they make it to order or scoop it out of a steamer pan. You have to call them to find out how much they charge but some places will substitute fried rice at a small charge when you order a meal that includes white rice.|||call the restaraunt in question.

Lets start getting worried when some country destroys someones else's satellite.|||not provocative. just a statement that they now can kinetically kill a satellite.

All I know is.. is that the U.S. better start weaponizing space just in case of the future with China. So I think it was a statement.. saying that they can do what they want -- but two can play that game.. and the U.S. plays it very well!

I'm asking because I'm on a diet (not a specific one, but just trying to eat more healthy so I can lose a few pounds, not that im fat, but I am putting on a little weight) and I was just wondering how healthy chinese food is for you, since we usually have it every Friday.
Chinese people eat it all the time, and lets me honest, whos ever actually seen a fat chinese person? So, how healthy is it?|||My wife is Chinese so here's the deal with 'Chinese takeout'. Chinese people don't eat that stuff. They make it to suit the taste of Americans. Chinese takeout is loaded with fat and sauces with lots of sugar. Real Chinese food is nothing like that and that's why almost all Chinese people are thin.|||not healthy. seriousy! its filled with oils, gease, and freaking sauces!!!!!!!!! chinese people are skinny cause thats there body type! and the chinese food in america is much different then in actual china!!!!!!!!|||Chinese are healthy but rarely do they eat take out food. Fast food chinese and most restaurants fill their food with msg. Have you ever noticed how thirsty you are after eating Chinese food? If you want to eat Chinese, cook vegetables and very lean meat, chicken and pork. Stay away from the rice and chow mein and you should do fine.|||I'll give you some advice
Don't go on a diet. Because that means you will eventually go off it.
Change what you eat for life.
Chinese food is not healthy, it contains a lot of fats and calories, especially those noodles.|||Yes it's healthy. Eat it everyday. Yum Yum!|||It's vital to eat effectively to stay in good health. Colon cleanse is an amazing suplement that keeps you in good health and also has the bonus of helping you to lose loads of weight. There is a free trial on right now at http://gijeps.fitnesspage.info , give it a try, what's the worst that could happen?|||It is not the origin of the food that matters. Order something healthy from the menu, no matter what kind of restaurant..
And yes, there are fat Chinese people. Obesity is a huge and rising problem in China just as in America.|||99% of a Chinese take out menu is horrendous for your health! The other 1% is actually very good for you. Next time you order, try steamed vegetables with brown rice, or steamed chicken and vegetables with brown rice. They usually put sauce on the side. Go easy on the sauce, and you'll get your Chinese food fix AND still be healthy!
FYI - the joke is on us. Chinese restaurant workers rarely eat the food they serve. If you'll notice, they either stick with soup, rice, or steamed vegetables. You have to wonder about food that even the servers won't touch!|||LOL...they don't eat That kind of Chinese Food. This "Chinese Food" is americanized. It's not entirely bad for you, it's all about portion control. For instance on Weight Watchers, Chicken and Broccolli is only 4 Points per cup. I used to eat 2 cups of it, while on Weight Watchers. I also enjoyed Mei Fun, and Lo Mein. :) Don't get those Huge Platters, just order a pint, they are just right.|||Chinese food from a take out menu and Chinese food that people in china would eat are incredibly different.
Wherever you live, the people are more inclined to eat food with grease, fat, seasonings, and sauces...that's just the way it is, so they altered Chinese food to make it more palatable for the people in the area. So takeout Chinese food is very bad for you. If your going to eat it I suggest getting a dish with veggies in it. Then again, now a days the world has gone on a health kick, so do some research, you may be able to find a Chinese takeout place that serves healthier food.
Pan Asian food is very good actually (the places that they fry up your food with water not oil, right in front of you. It usually contains lean proteins, lots of veggies, etc, and tastes really good, but is much better for you.
Or go Japanese, some sushi's are also very good for you (just watch out for the rolls that contain mayonnaise and other such sauces.|||Some people no matter what they eat, they gain weight, that's in the genes. Just to let u know fried rice,all u see rice,vegetable. chicken, Its the salt, oil, soy sauce contain lots sodium, and msg they put in

WHen you pay cash for that stuff the don't claim it all and save on paying taxes.|||3 dollars hehe|||$5.00|||20%. that's $4 on a $20 order|||depends on the amount of the bill, but no less than $3.00-5.00. the $1.50 charge doesn't go to the driver.|||if they already charge you for th delivery then that goes straight to the delivery driver. I know this as i used to deliver pizzas. so I would not tip but it would be nice to tip him even if it`s "keep the change" it may be as little as 10p every penny helps|||Tip 10-16% of your total order. I would tip the same as eating at a restaurant, and base it on the service you got.|||20% minus half the dellivery fee. Because the driver probabaly only gets half of that. So if the bill is $20.00 you'd give him $4.00 (which is 20%) minus the fee (75cents) so about $3.25
If the weather is bad give 25%|||He gets paid by the Chinese place. Tip him zero.
If he relies on tips to make his living then bad luck, let him get a job that pays better.
Of course, my opinion may differ from a lot of peoples because i'm in Australia and tipping is not customary here.

This all depends on the cost of living in your area however.|||3-5 bucks is fine|||like 15-20% an easy way to do it is to just double the tax (at least in CA)|||i usually give delivery drivers 5 dollars. if you think about it they have to drive to your house and give you the food. i always feel bad for them. The 1.50 goes towards their gas mileage. And at restaurants, 20% is very much appreciated just double the amount of the first number of the bill. For instance, if the bill is 30.00, 6 dollars is a good tip.|||I usually tip delivery drivers according to the price of the bill - I never order much Chinese food at once, so I usually give him $2 - $3. If there's a bunch of us and the bill is $25 or more, I'll tip $5.

* 1/2 c. water
* 0.5 - 1 Tbl. grated ginger

* 1 Tbl. cornstarch
* 1 Tbl. molasses
1) Cook any meat first. Remove it from the pan.
2) Stir-fry your veggies.
3) Mix up all the sauce ingredients in a measuring cup.
4) Add a few pieces of hot veggies to the measuring cup to pre-heat the cornstarch.
5) Dump all the sauce into the pan with the veggies (and add the meat back, if using) and bring to a boil.
6) Simmer for a minute or two until the sauce is clear and thickened.|||It's probably oyster sauce. I use a very simple recipe of blanching the vegetables in hot water, then drizzling the sauce over:

there's a little chinese take out restaurant by my house. you can't go in there and get served ur food cuz it's only a carryout place. anyways, I've heard that when you get carryout food from restaurants you're suppose to tip, does this count to chinese carry out? do others tip?|||My local Chinese restaurant has a tip jar at the cash register- at first I didn't tip- but after I found it was so good and they were really quick- I started leaving like a $2 tip in the jar- now they know me by my phone # and always give me extras- kindness pays too|||The good Chinese restaurant in our town, where they prepare each order individually, rather than scooping it up from a buffet, has a discreet sign posted, "Tips are appreciated." Whenever we eat there we notice that they do quite a lot of take-out business. The same servers who wait on the tables also gather the take-out orders, package them up, and bring them to the waiting customers. They're losing an opportunity to wait on a table and earn a tip, so I think it's only fair to give them a tip for a take-out order.
Your restaurant may be different, but considering that Chinese food is plentiful and economical, why not give a tip of about 10%? If you're a regular customer, they'll recognize you and treat you very well.|||If you walk into a place and carry out your own food? No you do not tip.
If they deliver, yes.
If they serve you at a table, yes.
If you are at a buffet, and the waitress actually brings you drinks and clears your plates while you eat, you tip $1 per person.|||Personally, no. I tip is usually given as a "Thank you" for someone's services, ie delivery to your home, or, in a sit down restaurant, delivery to your table. For carry out, all a worker does is put your food in a bag and hand it to you.|||No. Normally, I don't tip on carry out food. In a way, it's fast food. You don't think twice about tipping at McDonald's or Taco Bell. The only exception to this would be if the service was exceptional in some way. I find it necessary to tip the driver when the food is delivered.|||Not really if its like a fast food place. Still no tip because there's no serving.

There is only one Chinese place in my area that delivers.. and I can't leave my house at the moment and I want to order from there. I am a noob vegetarian and I have no clue what to order. I'm used to ordering beef and broccoli, chicken fried rice, and things like that, so I don't even know the names of any vegetarian dishes... It's not really an option to just ask on the phone because they hardly speak English and it would be too complicated. ya know..
But yeah.. I'm starving and I just want some suggestions on what to order.. I know that basically all Chinese places carry the same foods.. So what do you order when you get Chinese? I know I want to get vegetable dumplings . [is that even what they are called?] and some kind of rice.. what else can I ask for that will be filling, tasty, and satisfying?|||Vegetable fried rice, vegetable chow mein, or vegetable chop suey.|||My favorite thing to order is veggie fried rice and garlic broccoli.|||Vegetable dumplings often contain pork fat. Don't trust that they are vegetarian unless you can really talk to them about it.
You can ask if they have mixed vegetables with tofu. A lot of Chinese Restaurants have something called Buddha's delight, with tofu and veggies. Since buddhists are vegetarians, it's a pretty good bet that this will be meat free.
You can try asking them about vegetarian. You mention their English isn't very good, but that may be a common enough question to be unconfusing to them. There are vegetarian buddhists in China, so it's not a foreign concept.
Vegetable fried rice is good only if you can ask if its vegetarian with no meat or shrimp. Otherwise stick to steamed rice.
Have you googled to see if you can find their menu online? A lot of restaurants do that now - even little ones.|||Get the Mei Fun, it is sooooo delicious. It has a great sauce and angel hair pasta and delicious veggies. I was glad I got it! Also, add a veggie egg roll!|||I recommend you ask the restaurant when you call to order. Many things that seem vegetarian may have meat in the sauce and stuff like that. You should ask them specifically. Better safe than sorry.
Even though we do like to try new things, pretty much our standard order for three of us (though one is a voracious husband, the other a teen son):
Large wonton soup, chicken fried rice, beef chop suey, bbq pork chow mein (2), deep fried chicken wings, some kind of ribs - either dry garlic, or honey garlic (sometimes a small order of sweet and sour); deep fried shrimp, sometimes egg rolls (but those are for the next day). One place has awesome coconut buns, so we get those as well.|||Usually stir-fry string beans, or vegetable lo mein. I always order with a side of crab rangoon. The next thing that I would like to try is champagne chicken.|||steamed dumplings and moo shu chicken|||When I order Chinese Take Out, I usually order some kind of fried rice.|||I always order shrimp & broccoli - YUM|||living in the san gabriel area of los angeles we are so lucky to have hundreds of great chinese places available,, for take out i get 3 dish BBQ... 2 types of pork, and chicken,, all crunchy on the outside and perfect inside...with rice, then i go to a vietnamese baguette place and get a icey vietnamese coffee.....perfection|||Chop Suey!|||we like:

Any ideas on what meal I should choose?|||fried rice n chicken wings|||For pure taste, I like most things in oyster or lobster sauce. However they don't ussaly come with vegitibles. Moo Goo guey pan is a chicken with vegitbiles in a white sauce which is a pretty good standard. Lemon chicken also tastes good but lacks vegitbles. Kung pow chicken is great if you like hot stuff.
I recomend the chicken with vegitibles or the pork lo mein as good standard fare. Some pepole like the combination platters because it comes with an egg roll and seems more like a meal with a smaller main entry.
|||i am not much for the broccoli meal unless its made right.I do not like anything in oyster sauce.UGH!

I've always found that Chinese people don't view vegetarian/vegan food the same way as westerners. Be on the lookout for oyster sauce, which is added to most veg stir fries. Every Chinese menu I've ever seen lists variations of vegetables or tofu in oyster sauce in the vegetarian section of the menu. The safest option is to specifically ask for steamed rice with vegetables and NO (stress this) oyster sauce. Chinese Buddhists have an oyster sauce made from mushrooms which to my knowledge is suitable for vegans - try asking for this. Bon appetit!|||Chinese fried rice should come with eggs, noodle is also made with eggs in it, so you should not have these 2. Therefore you're left with white rice, vegetables, tofu, mushroom. Some restaurants offer rice noodle and they are made with rice flour only so it's vegan.|||Tofu dishes, mushroom fried rice, vegetable stir fry. That's all I can think of, chinese people like to eat meat a lot. You could ask the chef to omit meat in your order.|||Fried tofu and dip in soy sauce or peanut sauce if they have it.

I would tip if they brought it to your house, if they didn't then leaving one or two bucks isn't going to break your bank either, someone did have to package your food, and make sure it was correct, and make sure you had enough duck sauce and fortune cookies. I waitress, so I tip high everywhere I go. Think about it, yes they make an hourly wage, but do you realize that some waitresses make only 2.63 an hour? How could you not tip good knowing that? Plus I believe in karma, what goes around comes around, so tossing an extra dollar or two really doesn't hurt anything and you might just make someones day a little nicer.|||Yes. Thats how some delivery drivers make there money. They make min wage or maybe less than that.|||no. i didn't know i was supposed to.
this tipping is getting out of hand.|||If they have to deliver you should tip.|||if it is delivery, yes
if it is self pickup, no
and if the resturant only caters to takeouts, then yes|||Tipping is normally reserved for sit-down, but have had really good service from Chinese take-out, and that's a tip for sure.

God Bless !!|||yes,at least !$|||depends on the value of food ordered.|||yes 15% because you have to pay for the gas so yes i do.|||Delivered? 10% plus an extra buck or 2 if it's nasty outside. If I pick it up, I might round up a dollar but don't feel a tip is necessary.|||YES at least $5. Put yourself in their shoes. Plus if you don't tip, they will mark it on their dats base andthe next time you order for delivery, expect a hair on your mien. I'd rather be Nice than sorry.|||If it is delivered yes, but if I pick it up no.|||nope, i don't tip on take out anywhere..|||Pick up....No. Delivery.....yes...20% tip.|||They deliver yes $2- I pick it up, it makes no sense to tip.|||it would be nice to leave a tip, they did do some work for you, you tip for service and they did supply a service.
however, if you have it delivered, then you definetly do tip.|||No, they did not deliver to your home and you are not eating in so no tip is required.|||Tipping for delivery is a definite YES. When I pick it up, I don't usually tip.|||If it's a delivery, or if you're eating in a restaurant and there's a waiteer serving you, than yea, but if you're just ordering by the counter than no way|||I recently bought some take out from a Mexican restaurant. I ordered directly from the cook. He did all the work, when it came time to pay, the lady cashier took my money, gave me several ones instead of a five, handed it to me, then immediately grabbed the tip jar and shook it in front of me and left it setting in the middle of the counter to be sure I left a tip. I just gave her a dirty look, put my change in my pocket, (all of it.) grabbed my food, and walked out. I have never been back there since, and I never will. It's like she demanded a tip.|||I don't normaly tip for take out just bc you usually have to wait for it. Since you are going to pick it up, they are actually saving money by not having to deliver it. I only tip if it is delivery!|||If they are delivering it, definitely.|||More often than not, yes. I was a waiter for years. They are probably getting the base rate of $2.15 an hour + tips, so I personally feel that if they pull together your order, then they should get a tip. I do; however, find it annoying to see that everyone and their dog has a tip jar out these days.
We have decided on gourmet Jelly Beans as a favor as we both love them, and to tie in to a couple things. The vendor we are going through to get the jellybeans has offered to provide cellophane packets at no extra cost (but we would have to fill them ourselves) but another option I like are mini take out boxes either clear or in white at low cost. Both options would be topped off with ribbon in our colors and will be displayed on silver trays on a special table by the entry/exit, we are not having traditional seating
http://www.simplygreatmeals.com.au/weddi… Or http://www.inkhead.com/UniversalInc/imag… except with jelly beans and no label
Which would be more visually appealing?|||I love the first idea :D those are so cute and especially with bright coloured candies in them! It really makes them POP!|||I like the Chinese boxes with ribbon better, especially if you put them on a silver tray. It will make them look much nicer. If the vendor is offering them to you at no extra cost, I would take them anyway, just in case something happened with the boxes. Always good to have a back up plan.|||Chinese takeout box. However, I had a bride that used something similar to cellophane wrapping (image below).

Good luck and congratulations!
http://encorepartydjs.weblog.com|||I agree, the take out containers make it different, not just like a sack of jelly beans and would probably be easier to fill too, though I'm not sure.|||I prefer the Mini chinese take-out boxes as flavours as they are more unique and visually appealing.|||the boxes look better|||i like the take out boxes, but i think they are overdone, nowadays, honey.
do cell if its free!|||mini chinese take out containers... I always love that it's so clever and works so well.|||I love it!
You just answered my question for me! I was debating the same thing. Bags/pockets versus Boxes.
I am doing custom Fortune Cookies for our favors and have been internally debating of how to present them. I was pretty set on the take-out boxes monogrammed with our names. From there I was hemming and hawing over clear, colored, or a transparent box. I guess this is still my debate, but I totally agree with the others and BOX 100%.
A box is “re-usable” and more memorable or can be used a keepsake. If you have extras you can send them to people who were unable to attend or you can send a small thank you to the people who send the good gifts!
Thanks again for helping me answer myself.
Oh – Check out orientaltrading.com for some good deals on the takeout boxes.
Good luck!
& Congratulations!
nutrition|||very fatty and greasy....stay away!|||Very tasty .... enjoy!|||Great taste but low on nutrition. For nutritional purposes stay with the steamed white rice and choose chicken over pork. Higher protein and lower sodium in most of the chicken sauces. Watch out for that MSG ( monosodium glutamate ).

So go ahead and enjoy. ^_^|||A clear soup and a vegtable dish. I wouldn't have a lot of boiled rice. Chinese food can be very healthy. Just don't get eggrolls and some of the fried dishes. Sounds yummy!|||Ask him to get you a vegetarian dish. While it probably will have a sauce with a soup base, it is typically healthier than most meat dishes.|||I always order the chicken and broccoli (good for your "green" day), but ask for it STEAMED and make sure you tell them you want the sauce on the side. Specifically ask for steamed white rice also. With the sauce on the side you can use just a little bit (the sauce is very high in sodium) and it still tastes just as great. My bf is a personal trainer and this was his suggestion to me a while back. I love it and it's all I ever order because it's a very healthy dish and tastes great!|||rice is ok, but id call them up before hand ask what is their lowest calorie/fat meal|||The best thing for you to do is a vegtable dish that is not made with a sweet sauce, the boiled rice would be ok but do not get white rice get a grain rice if they have it. So your thought of curry would be ok I think, but truly your best bet is to skip it all togeather.
hope this helps

Americans have our favorite "Chinese" foods and those who operate restaurants know this. It's a lot cheaper to order menus from supply houses than it is to go to a printer. Therefore, Chinese restaurants use the pre-made menus that they order with their other supplies. It's the same with Mexican restaurants.|||cultural food
like most american places have burgers
genius|||Most of them are their Famous dishes...|||Yes, those are the dishes that sell! Realistically, go to any style of resturant and it will be very similar to all the others of that genre. In italian places, people want pizza, risotto, pasta etc. Chuck a curry on the menu and no one buys it, because if they wanted a curry, they'd have gone to a curry house!|||Most popular items. And the menu will be cheaper, they just change the logo and the phone number.
For take out, it must have something that cook easy and fast. Instead of creating something new and unique, which will induces more explanation to customers. They just go with the most common dishes which almost every chef knows how to make.|||Yes.
First it isn't Chinese Food. It's Chinese'ish Food.
Second, it's what sells.
They put on their menus what people buy, and what people expect to find. Seriously, businesses actually have to put up items on menus that are rarely ordered in order to validate themselves to potential customers. In the case of a video rental outlet, they call all those old movies that consist of less than 5% of thier revenue but take up huge space, Wallpaper.. and they need it.
Anyways, it's not a Chinese thing.. It's a business thing. ;)|||All the American menus have hamburgers and steaks listed..because that is considered American food.|||yeah I noticed that phenomenon too!!! I ate chinese buffet in arkansas, and then I ate at different chinese buffets in Texas and all the places had the exact same food.....prawns, dry salmon, just to name a couple|||moment_in_passing is right
the food is NOT chinese, it is fake and they just want to earn ur money!!!
no difference with "Panda Express"
chinese ppls never go there, hav u noticed?
don't go there, try something else
(shanghainese food rox!)
mail me if u hav questions!|||i dont think they are always the same|||What about the chinese zodiac placemats?
WTF?!?!?|||Just a theory because I've noticed this before too and thought about it. All the Chinese restaurants are controlled by the chinese mob. They all have to buy their products, menus, soy sauce, batter, food, etc. from the mob controlled companies. That's why no matter where you go the food is all the same and tastes nearly the same. Look at the sauce packets and fortune cookies, no matter where you eat they come from the same place.|||Poor thing! Don't get out to eat much, do ya !x? Pizza places and hamburger places have much the same thing, too. The Chinese research the taste of each country and grow menus to the taste of its market. The Chinese have providers for most of their food-stuffs as well as menus and chopsticks. Bulk buying is the same engine driving China. The Chinese are much more organized when it comes to feeding the masses. Chinas' illustrious longevity came with wisdom not lost on such an Imperial Nation.|||Yes, they are all China men.|||i found out in austin tx, the same people own 10 diff restaurants and pretend like they are competitors, i caught one doing that when the menu had the same typo on it!
Hi.
I'm 14 years old and i use to order sweet n sour chicken,sesame chicken,or general tso's which are all fried.
well iv'e changed my eating habits, by cutting out fried foods,pop,sweets,ect. i usually eat them only on friday or saturday.
well my mom might get chinese takeout for lunch today because my sister wants it.
i need to know which one of these are healthier than what i use to get.
Iv'e never had any of these. I KNOW theres a lot of sodium, but just tell me whats in it and if it's fried or not.. Thanks..
1. szechuan chicken
2. Hunan chicken or shrimp
3.CHICKEN CURRY
4.wonton soup
5. chicken or lobster chop suey|||Szechuan chicken, Hunan chicken/shrimp, chicken/lobster chop suey are stir-fried, chicken curry or wonton soup are not 'fried' but to save time, sometimes chicken curry are very fried too so the 'safest' will be wonton soup which requires no frying.
It may not be filling enough so maybe you can consider one serving of plain white rice to go along.
Not sure if that Chinese restaurant serves soup noodle, otherwise you can order prawn / chicken / wonton soup noodle which are also not fried.
Please ask for less salt too.|||Compare to deep frying, yes as food doesn't sits in pool of hot oil (some restaurants use the oil more than once) and they are usually cooked in a shorter time but provided less salt, no msg and not too much sauces. Vegetables must not be overcooked in stir-frying otherwise all goodness will be gone Report Abuse
|||You're better off with the wonton soup. The wontons are boiled in a chicken broth based soup. Other items are either fried (the meat) or it's filled with tons of sauces which means extra calories.|||Chicken LowMein/Chow mein
Most menus say if it is fried. All Veggie entres are not fried. And you can always request your meal not fried too.
I bought some chinese take out Thursday of last week and I didnt eat it all and it is still in the fridge. I was thinking of taking it to work today for lunch. Is it still some good, do you think?|||I would throw it away...after anything has been in my fridge for a week I throw it away no matter what it is.|||What does it smell like? Personally, I won't eat anything more than 2 days' old if it's takeout, or 3 days' old if it's homemade. Especially shrimp! Yikes!! Throw it out!|||oohhh...shrimp maybe a day if your lucky...brocolli...same thing it loses it's flavor and begins to stink up your fridge on the second day and its all mushy like asparagus. blah!|||Unless you want to risk yourself of food borne illnesses, I would advise you not to eat it and discard it in the trash.
Personally,Take out will only sit in my fridge for 2 days.
I was wondering, can you freeze Chinese takeout? I got some for lunch, and I have an excessive amount of Buddha's Delight (The veggie dish) and white rice. I was wondering, could I freeze either of these to save for later meals? I know I won't eat it all by this week, and it'll go bad, and I'd rather not waste money. Thanks much. (:|||Yeah, I hate wasting money. Yeah, I'm pretty sure you can freeze the food. :)|||Hey, Buddha's Delight...great stuff! (My favorite). Yes, it's freezable. Don't go beyond a week, though. (Actually, the tofu will probably get firmer, which is a positive.)|||Yes, you can freeze anything provided it is wrapped properly|||No wai chinese takeout got awesome samurai ninja powars and is unfreezable!!|||I actually chocked on my snack when I read Bommel. That was hilarious and soooo unexpected. Clever....I gave him a thumb up!!
I don't know the answer though....|||Yeah you can.
It all depends on how old the microwave is. The older ones (older than 8 years) will probably do damage, but the newer ones will not. They have been updated to handle some metal parts without doing damage.|||No. Metal should not be put in the microwave.
Either remove the handles, or put the food on a plate.
Be sure to stir during the cooking time, or the food near the outside of the box will burn, and the food in the middle will still be cold.
Enjoy! :-))|||thats BIG heck no buddy
an waful burning smell will start to come out of your microwave and will probably linger for quite a while
and you might start a fire
and the paper in the cardboard tens to puul moisture form the food so you end up with 1 large peice of crud that soemwhat resembles a brick.
just put your left overs on a plate|||yes you shore can! thats only if you have a new micro wave!

I notice when you get eggrolls at the supermarket they always have cabbage in them and the ones that do have meat are basically ground beef with ginger and stuff.
What I want to know is how to make those ones you get at a chinese take out place where the filling isn't crumbly beef, it's like a soft meat paste with the consistinsy of mashed potato. Every recipe I've ever found online makes the supermarket kind with crumbly beef and cabbage. What on earth is that meat paste?|||After you have cooked the ground pork, put it in a food processor, with seasonings, and process it to a paste. My mom used to do it with leftover roast beef, and it made the best sandwich spread!
Another way is to process the ground pork while it is raw, then add it to the cabbage. I prefer to process it after, but you might like it best this way.|||Ground pork.|||Sorry, meat products are not my specialist subject

I went to the chinese take out that i sometimes go to and before I ordered i told the girl that last time there was some bony chicken in my general tso and asked if i could get white meat. she obliged and yelled my order back. I took the food back and ate about 60% of it, as it tasted a little heavy and was starting to make me feel tired. I thought nothing of it, but when I got home from work a few hours later I threw up about 15 times over 6 hour period (to say the least) and was sick subsequently for about 2 days. I know the food made me sick and I still have leftovers in the styrofoam container in my fridge. Is there any way I can get financial recourse for food poisening of the food is tested to be toxic? Thanks.|||Food poisoning has a 12 hour latency period, so you better make up a better story. You can test all you want, but unless you have preserved the leftovers properly, like a laboratory would, so as to add nothing and delete nothing, any test will be meaningless.|||You can sue if you can prove that the food was the cause of your illness. Its not as easy as it sounds. The fact that you have the leftovers helps. But even if you sue, you're looking at a couple hundred bucks, tops.
You might want to call your local health department and report it to them. They might test the food for you and save you the time and money. Then you can decide whether its worth pursuing or not.|||Proving that this food got you sick is going to be very difficult. If this food has been sitting in your fridge since you got sick, it is possible other toxins have developed in your food not related to anything the restaurant did. You will have a very tough time actually proving this, especially with take-out food. You must show that you actually had food poisoning (something in the food got you sick) and that the food you received made you sick as a result of something the restaurant did.|||You should report them to the health department, who will then inspect the place and their kitchen.
I don't think that temporary illness can get you a successful lawsuit ... and either way, it would be too costly to file a lawsuit and prove it (lawyers, experts, lab tests, etc.). You'd never be awarded enough to make up for what it would cost you to prosecute it.|||This is tough to prove, number one the food has been in you fridge for how long? We know at least three day which would make it toxic
Plus you have to prove you ate nothing before this at all.
What you can do is call the health department and tell them what happened to you and then get a copy of the health report if they fail and use this it has more power in the courts.
Also you did not state if you were seen by a Doctor or treated, if you were and have the diagnoise of food poisoning you will need copies of all the medical information.|||It will be tough. You're not injured. And proving causation is challenging. A letter to the BBB would be in order, though.|||Yes. It shows a) they are getting contaminated food or b) they aren't cooking the food properly. It is their duty to make sure the food is either clean, or well-prepared.|||You're not going to have grounds for a lawsuit. Firstly, you would have to prove they were either negligent in preparing your food, or that they intentionally gave you tainted food. Something that will be nearly impossible to prove. Secondly, as others have said, you are going to have to prove that you didn't eat anything or have an illness prior that could have caused that. Also, you say it is sitting in a styrofoam container in your fridge. If you sent it away to get it tested it will show bacteria grown after the fact. You won't win anything and will be wasting time and money.

you can still do other foods but adding tea and fortune cookies and some little decorations would really tie it in. you could put chop sticks in the takeout boxes, with a saying "whitney and trever, sticking together, forever" or "whitney and trever are sticking together".

The true answer is not pretty, but it doesn't have to do with cats and dogs or lead paint.
It's not that the ingredients are low quality, it's that the labor is cheap.
People come over from Mainland China as indentured servants, incurring a debt of $30,000 to $50,000 to do so. They work off the debt by slaving in Chinese restaurants owned by the lenders, who also provide crude housing and other benefits but very little cash. By overpricing the benefits, they reduce what's left to pay off the loan, which means the indentured servitude has to go on longer. It may take someone five years or more of 80 hour work weeks to work off the debt. The end result is that the restaurant workers work for almost nothing. Also, the restaurants may file taxes, but the business is mostly cash, so they under-report their income.
Not all restaurant workers are in this bind, but enough of them are that it depresses wages for the rest of the workforce. Chinese workers who aren't in this bind might have this scenario as the order taker you talk to when you order takeout. $1700/month in cash, in exchange for working 11 hours/day, 6 days a week, which works out to about $5.95/hr. It's cash under the table, but it's hardly a princely salary. You get to eat while you are at the restaurant, and you live somewhere cheap since you're never home except to sleep.|||Because butchering the free, stray animals in the back alley really cuts down on their overhead.
MSG is free = My Special Goo.|||because stray cats are so plentiful|||just like mcdonalds is cheap...its because they are feeding you crap...Crap is cheap...real nutritional food is not cheap.|||I guess it depends where you are ordering from, and what you are ordering. Most Chinese take out restaurants still make a good profit even if there prices are low because they have the ability to add flavor to inexpensive ingredients and cheap cuts of meat (skirt or flank steak, dark chicken meat like thighs and legs, and salad shrimp).|||In my opinion Chinese takeout has never been cheap. Somehow, even if I'm only ordering for one it still comes out to at least $15, plus you should tip the driver. For $20 I can get a better meal somewhere else.
Not that Chinese food is bad, but for $20 I could have steak and shrimp.
Compared to most restaurants, Chinese food may seem cheap. But it's only because they cook in mass quantities and most of the dishes have the same ingredients; Stir fried rice, white rice, or noodles.
You could spend a fortune on Chinese food if you order the right dishes.|||because its the cheap version of chinese food , not very refined like the normal asian diet|||Loads of cheap,oily/fattening ingredients!Not to talk about the meat "quality"...|||Hmmm... it's not cheap over here.
It usually contains inferior quality meat and vegies, because the theory is that you can't tell once the strong flavoured sauces are added. Often vegies are bought that are not fit for shop sale (juicing carrots, defrosted vegies) and tough meat is tenderised with the aid of msg and other additives.

Hi,
I have a bit of a strange request from a foreign visitor to Vancouver. They would like to order Chinese take out and eat out of those white boxes with metal handles (like they show in the movies), but most restaurants here use foil or styrofoam containers. Does anyone know of a Chinese Restaurant that still uses those white take out boxes? |||Not Chinese... but Thai Express uses those little boxes. Thai Express is the thai take-out/foodcourt place they have in the malls. I'm originally from Vancouver but currently reside in Toronto so I'm not sure if they have it in Van right now...but USUALLY..What they have in TO, they will have in VAN!
From what I remember growing up in Vancouver, I never ate Chinese out of those little takeout boxes. They only use those boxes in places where Chinese food is rare (like small towns), so they try to make it as cute and authentic as possible (even though the food tastes like crap, probably). Other than that, go to those art stores or maybe the dollar store and buy those boxes haha. |||There is a new restaurant in Queensborough landing that serves Asian food out of the white boxes...called Wok Box. It is near the walmart in queensborough landing. Although it is not a traditional chinese restaurant it does serve their food out of those boxes. They put the rice or noodles on the bottom and then whatever you choose on top, so they are a one person meal per box...some curry dishes as well. Or you can go to a packaging company (like essential Packaging in Langley) and buy the boxes and put you take out in that...
That is the only place I have seen the boxes. Good luck.|||Go to your mall, there is usually a chinese place in there. Should be china gormet or something. Ask them for a "sides" box. They should have plenty.
Also, asian markets sell them. I also have people asking to eat chinese out of those little boxes. They arent so bad, they are small enoguh to carry and eat out of, but are annoying if your sitting down and eating. |||Not around here. Some non-chinese restaurants use them for to-go boxes! If you're really in the business of pleasing these visitors, go to the craft store or party supply store and buy a pack ... then figure out how to get the food in there later ...
Good Luck.|||Why dont you make fresh chinese and order some of these cute chinese boxes..they have wide variety.http://www.nashvillewraps.com/ShowType.w鈥?/a>|||come to the grand place of the US of A and they have the white boxes.|||i do not... but you can buy those boxes at some groceries stores if that helps|||looool

Directly translated, "chop suey" means "odds and ends", so it can be any hodgepodge of vegetables and leftovers that the cook feels like throwing together or needs to use up.
The dish served up as Chop Suey outside China has no equivalent in Chinese cuisine. Like fortune cookies and Crab Rangoon, this was concocted expressly for non-Chinese customers' preferences. Whatever they call Chop Suey in a restaurant is nicer than "odds and ends", of course, but it has no traditional recipe, so it's sort of anything goes as far as what ingredients and sauces are in it. Count on there being a lot of vegetables and some mixture of beef, chicken, and shrimp.|||It's a bunch of cut up vegetables and bamboo shoots in a sauce. Interesting note: it's not really Chinese food. When Chinese workers were brought over here to build the railroads in the 1800s they were treated very badly. The cooks just threw stuff in a pot to feed them and that was the origin of chop suey.|||Chop suey (Chinese 'mixed pieces') is an American-Chinese dish consisting of meats (often chicken, beef, shrimp or pork), cooked quickly with vegetables such as bean sprouts, cabbage, and celery and bound in a starch-thickened sauce. It is typically served with rice but can become the Chinese-American form of chow mein with the addition of deep-fried noodles.
Chop suey is part of American Chinese cuisine, Canadian Chinese cuisine, and, more recently, Indian Chinese cuisine. Filipinos also have their own version of chop suey. The typical Filipino-Chinese variation includes ear fungus (also known as tenga ng daga in Tagalog; lit. ear of the rat), carrots and chayote along with the cabbage. Some may even include bell peppers and/or cauliflower.|||Its lots of veg. with a creamy white clear sauce it comes with chicken or with shrimp taste great with white rice..|||chinese mixed veggies|||Everything....
Leftovers
The Asian Restaurant Menu consist a little taste of many popular region in Asia. But nothing else insists the Asian Restaurant to be execlusively Chinese, or Japanese.......|||you get what you paid for.
cheap restaurants have lesser quality food, like american fast food versions of chinese cuisine or small family owned ones.
while expensive classy restaurants have quality asian cuisines and quality service.
And judging by their menu offerings, and identical taste accross restaurants, they MUST have the same supplier.
Can anyone confirm this?
All these chinese food restaurants have different names, and different ownerships, but have identical features (large menus placed on an oversized sheet of paper, exact dimensions --maybe 11" by 18" i'm guessing) and they all offer a dish called a "happy family" which has lobster, crab, chicken, and pork.
Can anyone confirm to me, that they are indeed linked by the same type of supplier and same business plan? Its almost like they are all a multi-thousand unit franchise but with different store-names to prevent association with one another, when annual health reports come out (fast food chinese restaurants are always tops of the X-list put out by the food inspectors).|||How many Chinese restaurants have you eaten at? And where are you located?
The large menus sound like place mats. It could be that there is a printer in your area that specializes in printing place mat menus for Chinese restaurants.
Are you sure that all the restaurants offer Happy Family with lobster and crab? I'd like to try that! I've never seen that combination before though I've ordered Happy Family many times at many different restaurants.
So far as supplier, once again, depending on where you are, there may be a limited number of suppliers for Chinese restaurants. Business plan wise, make as much money as they possibly can!
No, there is no conspiracy out there to hide poor food inspection reports by using different restaurant names. While there are probably some restaurant groups that operated under different names, they usually do so because of differences in styles of food or pricing structure. It would be poor business to use several different names if the restaurants all served exactly the same things for the same prices. If you went to location A and enjoyed a meal, you might go to location B expecting the same quality. If the company used different names, you might not go to one of their restaurants when you were hungry.|||no......that's ignorant....|||If you were to go and eat at different Chinese restaurants you will know the answer to your question....no, they are not all the same. Different restaurants may offer the same food choices on their menu, but the taste of the food is quite different from one to the next.|||I'm not sure what it's like in the US (but I have been to a few chinese restaurants there and found that even though they have similar menu items/names, the dish you get is different depending on the restaurant's chef and recipes), but here in the UK no 2 restaurants are the same...
Sure, the menus are very similar and the dishes are identically described and named in many of them, but just like the US restaurants I've been in, the dish you get is different in each restaurant.
I think it's all down to the demand of the customer (they expect a range of dishes that they know and request), and also down to the family recipes used by the chefs at the restaurants...
As for suppliers, You're almost right... There is generally a common supplier to many chinese restaurants... Over here in the UK, there are a number of "Chinese supermarkets" (one chain is called "Wing Yip") and the ingredients required for chinese food can only really be found there... I suppose it must be the same in the US...|||as far as taste goes, they're not the same.

If you live in the East Metro, check out Shangri-La or Mai Village (not 100% if Mai Village does take out, but I think they do).
I want to try it but I've heard it's spicy. What do you think of it?
What is better, chicken with peanuts or chicken in garlic sauce?|||You're talking about Kung Pao Chicken, which contains a slightly sweet and spicy sauce made with dried red chilis, and of course peanuts.
How spicy is it depends on the restaurant. I pick out the chili pieces and it's usually OK - not too sweet or too spicy.
Note that if you're eating at a Szechuan restaurant, everything is going to be quite spicy, so you may not want to order the Kung Pao there. Or if you do, emphasize to the waitress "don't make it spicy!" when you order it.|||I've had Chicken with Peanuts and it's good, but even better with Cashews. It may or may not be spicy depending on the chef and restaurant.
Chinese chefs are masters at tailoring food to their guest's palate. If you want it to be medium or mild, they'll take your request. And if you like cashews, they can add or sub them on your entree.|||Peanuts are not spicy. A dish can have them and be spicy, or not spicy at all, depending on how much spice is used:D
The one that you prefer is the better one.|||Kung Pao Chicken is its common name.|||im 12 and i dont think its spicy i enjoy it so i would encourage you to try it
is vegetable soup from the chinese place healthy?
what it pretty much is, is lots of veggies(i only eat the broccoli and carrots though) and the soup. which is yellow and taste like wong ton or whatever
IS IT HEALTHY?
what are the nutritional facts|||There are lots of sites that will give you nutritional facts of the ingredients. The main health issues with Chinese soups are going to be the amount of sodium and fat.
How much of each is going to depend on how they make the soup.
The Fire Bowl uses the trademark take-out boxes as well as Tien Hong. Beijing Wok also uses the boxes but only for their rice and noodles, not for the main entrees.

I was planning on going out for dinner tonight at a Chinese/Polynesian/Szechuan restaurant with my family, and I was wondering what they might have that's vegan? No meat, fish, egg, or dairy. I heard that a lot of places use oyster sauce and egg in most of their dishes. :( Any help?|||im not a troll nor a anti-vegetarian/vegan because im not. im actually vegetarian.
basically truth be told theres not much vegans can or do eat except nuts,pulses and vegetables.
so i doubt you will find something at a chinese restaurant as egg is in pratically everything. you cant even have a curry or something with rice because its usually egg fried rice so basically i dont think you can have anything which is another place to add to your list of where you cant get something to eat!|||Some chinese places have a separate vegan/vegetarian menu or section on the menu others at least have a vegetable section and you can and should ask if they have any animal ingredients and don't forget about MSG unless they state on their menu they don't use it. Don't be afraid to ask and be clear about what you mean.
Chow Fun can usually be made with vegetables and is most often made with rice noodles. It is stirfried in oil with soy sauce. You should double check that it is vegan but usually vegetable chow fun is.
Avoid the "fortune cookies" they tend to have some sort of animal-by-product in them (not always but usually something)|||Usually just to be safe I get brown rice with steamed veggies and soy sauce.
I'm too lazy to check what's in the sauces and what they cook them in :p
You could probably check the ingredients in spring rolls... I always homemake them, I'm not sure about the wrappers restaurants use.
Just because something's not on the meny doesn't mean you can't order it, either. If they have chicken rice, then they can obviously make rice... just ask for it without the chicken.|||Off the top of my head here:
Fried Rice noodles
Boiled or steamed rice
Stir fried veggies
Veggie curry, just ask what's in the sauce
In fact, just browse their veg dishes, see what takes your fancy and ask a staff memeber about sauce ingredients and what sort of oil it is cooked in|||hey
some oyster sauce is vegan
most black bean sauce is vegan
if they dont really speak english
maybe just get steamed broccoli in black bean sauce no eggs n steamed white rice n soysauce
thats all gluck
ps
or just go sushi instead n get like 2 rolls shiitake mushroom sushi n a diet coke
is this a healthy option for trying to lose weight|||Melimel, your order is definitely lower in calories than the average Chinese take out meal. You could certainly do worse, but unless you specify steamed, the chicken and string beans are stir fried in oil at a minimum and who knows what all is going on with the sauce. I would leave any sauce off altogether or ask that it be placed in a separate container on the side.
(Note: Even the steamed veggies have corn starch in the water. That's why they are always so crisp.)|||Probably not as you haven't said whet else is going with the chicken and beans.|||no

- moo goo gai pan
- chow mein (chicken or beef?)
- cashew nut chicken
thanks y'all!|||If you usually order general tso or sweet sour chicken it means you like deep fried battered chicken coated with sugary syrup. The difference with these 2 and moo goo gai pan or cashew chicken is something like choosing between fried chicken nugget loaded with ketchup and chicken salad with vinaigrette. Moo goo means mushroom and cashew chicken comes with some mixed vegetables and both of these are stir fried only without a lot of grease and no sugar, chow mein with meat is also stir fried with vegetable oil and not sugary.

That's a dish I've ordered from just about every chinese restaurant I've visited over the years in various towns in California.|||Chicken chow fun. It may not be on the menu but most chinese restaurants will have it. It's a wide flat rice noodle based dish. Sort of a chinese version of pad thai.|||1) rice & noodles - stir fry wheat noodles/ flat rice noodles/ rice stick/ glass noodles, with anything.
2) go crazy with some appetizer - gyozas/ dumplings of some sorts.
3) go beyond the "chinese" take out -
shanghainese : good for their Lion head's meatballs (literrally speaking, there's not lion head's in there, just a name), stir fry rice cakes, deep fried fish fillets wrapped with seaweeds, etc.
szechuans : all the spicy foods, heavy use of "szechuan peppercorn" . Famous for their deep fried chili chicken dice (ie. popcorn chicken, very flavorful), double-boiled fish fillet with onions & garlic, etc.
beijing - skewered cumin lamb BBQ, onion waffles wrapped with roast duck meats, etc.
hey, there's so many varieties of "chinese" food today, perhaps discover & diversify one at a time would be a great challange to the taste buds, cheers ! :)
Tonight, I am a little pressed for time and want to eat something healthy. I am going to get Chinese take-out. Would steamed chicken and broccoli be a healthier choice?|||It would be a better choice than any fried stuff. I would recommend eating brown rice instead of white because it's packed with much more minerals. Try a mixed veggie plate, and have it with a water. Skip the fortune cookie as it just adds sugar and isn't filling.
Most places will have meals that have a lot of tofu instead of animal products. Plain rice in stead of pork fried rice and Tofu/ vegetable stir fry are good options.|||If you see anything on the menu that says "Buddha ---" that will most likely be vegetarian, ask to take certain things out for it to be vegan (probably egg). Your best bet is to get steamed veggies and rice, though be careful because I once ordered it and they gave me chicken also :(|||Most chinese restaurants have vegetarian dishes, made with only vegetables and/or tofu. The problem is that if you are really strict, they may be stir fried in a wok that is only rinsed out between preparations and may have been used to cook meat prior to your order. Try to stick with steamed dishes if that is your problem.|||Most Chinese restaurants do offer some type of vegetarian dish. You can get vegetable fried rice, steamed bean curd dish, or whatever else that's on their menu. Sometimes they do put egg fried rice, so ask without egg if you order fried rice.|||Anything on the menu can be made with tofu, or veggie chicken if they have it.
Make sure to ask that it is cooked in a water base, because some use chicken or fish base.
I love kung pao veggie chicken its awesome.|||Stir-fried tofu with vegetables. Stir-fried broccoli with garlic. Stir-fried green jade delight. Stir-fried string beans. Moo-shu vegetables with pancakes.|||Probably nothing, except for the white rice. Panda Express in our area has a sign that says "we do not have any vegetarian items".|||General Tso's Bean curd!!! Bean curd stir-fry, vegetable fried rice|||Egg drop soup if your one of the vegetarians who eat eggs, fourtone cookies, white rice.
So the problem is, I don't really like Chinese food that's very authentic. Panda Express's orange chicken is really what I'm going for here. I ordered Orange Chicken at Ho Luck and that was not what I was looking for...it had real oranges and stuff. I think I also like Sesame Chicken if its shaped like that at Panda Express. I'm new to the area...help!|||The Chinese Garden is the best on Plum Grove Road and Schaumburg Road . . .excellent!|||I haven't been to Schaumburg in a while, but there used to be this place in the strip mall at Schaumburg and Plum Groove I think.

Based on the curries I have had - Thai, Japanese, "Indian" - I would expect a curry from a Jamaican restaurant to taste much different than one from a Chinese restaurant.
Japanese curry, for instance, is a lot milder and sweeter than other curries, primarily because they use apples in addition to onions, which are then cooked into a paste before the normal spices are added, etc. etc. etc.
Furthermore, Jamaican cooking doesn't use coconut milk so I wouldn't expect their take on curry to include that. It probably would also use more of the spices that are common in Jamaican cooking, as opposed to the melange of Indian spices that make up "Curry".

I dont know if you have them already, but I found a site that has favor boxes on sale right now and they carry the boxes you want for 1/2 pints 50 for $8.99. You can also see in the picture how they have dressed them up.
http://www.efavormart.com/index.asp?Page鈥?/a>
I am going to the Lindt chocolate store and buying truffles and putting them in our favor boxes, they have all different kinds and if you buy the big bags its pretty econmical. Or you could do Hershey kisses, really anything you want.
Good luck!|||Another suggestion besides candy might be chocolate dipped fortune cookies to go along with your chinese container idea.
If you or a friend you know is artistic you can paint or stencil a design (theme of your wedding or shower) to vibe it up a little.|||I think take-out boxes are so cute for wedding favors. I don't know how many you have or how easy they would be to stamp, but you could try stamping them with something like the Chinese character for double happiness. Keep in mind that red is considered a lucky color in Chinese culture.
As for the candy, the sky is the limit. I know some candies like M&Ms can be ordered in custom colors to match the wedding and reception. You could line the box with something like Easter grass if the candy doesn't come in wrappers.|||You could put tissue paper in the inside. Use the colors that are used in the wedding. Mints would be a good idea or some type of chocolate in candy molds. there are wedding bell molds, etcs.. you could always write the brides name in a nice pen on the outside and the date of the shower. You could also attach a nice ribbon in a bow on the outside that is the color of the tissue paper inside. If you use candy molds make sure the candy is individually wrapped b/c it could cause spots on the boxes. Lastly you could also thank the guests on a little note inside that would thank them for sharing a special day with the bride. You could always place a fortune cookie in the inside with a thank you note inside the cookie! Hope this helps!|||clear cellophane decorative bags or paper. Then tie them on top with ribbon and then slide them in the bags.|||First I'd like to offer you best wishes on your up coming wedding.The take out boxes are a wonderful idea ! You can get some wedding stickers at one of the Hallmark stores and decorate them. You can sprinkle on some glitter.You can also get pretty tissue paper at the same store maybe in your wedding colors.Add bows with curly ribbon.And they are going to look great! You can fill the boxes with peppermints,gum,kisses,little packs of life savers and little almond candy.Please post a picture so we can all enjoy how pretty there are going to turn out !|||One of the others suggested using Chinese characters. It's a great idea. Just go to one of those stamps places if you have one in your town. There is one in the market where I live. They can make any stamp, as long as you show them what you want.
For what to write...
Just think about what you would like to say on the outside and then ask a Chinese person to translate it for you. After you have the stamps made, you can buy any color ink at a stationary store, including different glitter colors. Oh, and ask the stationary store if you can't find out where to have the stamp made. They might know where you can have them made.
Another idea might be to hire a Chinese student to use paint and write on the boxes, like traditional Chinese calligraphy.|||What a cute idea! I of course would throw in some Botan Rice Candy, my fav. You can get it somewhere like Trader Joes or Cost Plus WorldMarket. Not too sweet and you can eat the wrapper. Those chocolate dipped fortune cookies are yummy and fun, even more fun if you could personalize the fortune! Have a great time and congrats!
i absolutely LOVE Chinese Take-Out. I have it at least once a month. But lately ive been looking at a bunch of diet plans in order to lose some weight. My only problem now is to cut down on my favorite fattening foods. Does my delicious monthly Chinese Take-Out dish have to go bye-bye? D=|||I wish I could eat Chinese food as often. I'ts not as fattening as say
McDonald's, Domino's Popeye's or any other fast food place is. At least Chinese restaurants have a wide variety of vegetables. As long as you order your meal instead of fixing a go-plate off the bar it's better that way. Freshly cooked much better than food that' s been sitting in the same oil & what not for how ever long. If your worried, eat more of the vegetables & steamed or stir fried meat & less of the rice, noodles, & fried foods.|||Chinese food tends to be very fattening. If you get takeout, try to get it in a tray. When you move the food around there is a lot of oil and fat from the meats and what it was cooked in. That's why it tastes so good. If you're trying to diet a bit, I suggest eating some of the less fatty foods. Try the Beef and Broccoli combo with white rice. It's pretty healthy and very little fat is involved. Try to avoid fried rice and some of their noodles. Best of luck to you. OR better, go to a Chinese restaurant. An authentic one and ask to have it to go. Usually actual restaurants use a bit less fat and oil.|||First off...what you're eating is highly Americanized Chinese food. The gloppy, corn-starch-laden sauces are a dietary disaster. Go to China, and you won't recognise what you're eating there from what you get at home.
Second...there are numerous regions of China; each one has very different cuisine. Same with most of Asia...each part of the country in question will have regional variations.
As to what to eat...stay away from the gloppy sauces that have a ton of corn starch. Alternatively, look at Vietnamese...a simple bowl of pho noodles is an approachable and reasonable version of what Vietnamese eat (look for places where Vietnamese go to eat...a great jumping off spot).
Hint: if you're in a restaurant serving Asian cuisine and the only people eating are caucasian, that's usually a pretty bad sign.|||Take-away Chinese food can be very healthy. Many menus are marked with "healthy options" or they can steam your dish instead of stir fry it. Avoid dishes that are deep-fried (like General Tso's chicken, Spicy Hot Beef, Sweet and Sour dishes where the pork or chicken is deep fried, shrimp toast etc) Opt for protein and veg dishes with simple sauces and you should be fairly safe.|||Not really. I mean if your ordering things like fried chicken on a stick or fried pork on a stick, or anything with a thick sauce then yes, because most of the sauces are high in calorie. And low on good things.
I love their brocolli and beef. And I ask them to make it fresh for me with less sauce. Rice is excellent. Especially the brown that they generally use for fried.|||it really depends on what you get. If you want to make sure you are getting something that is ok look up the nutrition facts. also instead of white rice, get brown rice.|||Almost everything is deep fried, I'd say once a month would be alright,|||Chinese is VERY fattening. It is full of sugar!!|||Once a MONTH, your good. Eat up!|||Come on......are you serious???? Once a month splurge baby splurge.|||Yes.
Produce is considerably cheaper than meat. They use very little meat in their food and they buy bulk. They use cheap fillers, like an extra bowl of steamed rice.|||yer right you don't wanna know.
I'll give you a hint. Ever notice there aren't ANY stray dogs (or cats) around Chinese restaurants?
Need I say more?|||They buy the cheapest ingredients in bulk of course. Also, I always had the feeling they recycled leftovers!|||Because you don't really know what you're eating...need I say more?|||my guess is because they don't have to pay for all of the advertising/Celebrity endorsements,etc.,like McDonald's, Burger King,etc.Just like how non-designer clothes and shoes can sell for much less than big name-brand items of the same quality. You pay for the label,pretty much.|||It's not that there's dog or anything...they just have low labor costs, and cheap ingredients.|||They use alot of rice. Rice doesn't cost that much and the meat that are in the dishes aren't alot of meat.|||Cheap labour?|||they probaly use cheaper meats|||maybe they do not mark up there food like other places do. you would be surprised how much things really cost.|||well the main reason is about 50% of any meal is rice. when I was running a kitchen a few years back I had to luagh one day when a 3 pound bag of rice I bought at the store was 5 cents more then the 25 pound bag I had ordered earlier that day at work. If I remeber right rice cost us 2 cents a pound cooked.
The other reasons are they normaly use cheap cuts of meats and lots of veggies. even when you order something seafood it the cheaper e seafood they are using. Most shrimp they use for example is what is sometime called bait shrimp (because of it size).|||In many of the Chinese restaurants that I have been to, it's a family owned business where the whole family works, so they're saving on labor costs.
They don't usually have big elaborate sit down restaurants, so that reduces overhead.
Ingredients bought in bulk are usually not that expensive.

As the title implies, I want to know how to make brown rice taste like chinese take out fried rice. Any suggestions or recipes?|||Rice doesn't have a lot of flavor in and of itself.

I live in the south central area of Austin, does anyone know of a Chinese restaurant in the area that serves take-out food in the traditional cardboard boxes? We ordered from Mama Fu's tonight, and we called ahead of time to see what kind of boxes they served in, and they said in traditional take-out boxes. But when the food got here, it was in cardboard boxes, but not the traditional kind we'd hoped for.
I know it probably sounds a little silly, but I've always seen them on tv and in movies, and dang it! I want one too!|||I lived at the Fire Bowl which has brown rice, great food and those boxes.|||I think China cafe has them.

Don't give Trump supporters a bad name.
And don't you dare mess with the Chinese restaurants around me.|||No they are a part of the American economy and they are mostly Mom and Pop type places rather than franchises paying a corporation.

I found that scene quite odd seeing how that vampire's main staple is "blood." In this scene Michael meets Kiefer and the gang. Kiefer invites Michael to some rice.
Michael is about to take a bite when Kiefer says "Maggots, Michael. You're eating maggots. How do they taste?" Actually it was Kiefer who created an illusion of the rice looking like maggots. Any who, I thought that particular scene was somewhat funny.
|||I have seen this movie at least 15 times. I do not know why, but I have. I was scared at first when I saw it and then I was like, they are bloodsuckers, why are they eating takeout, and where is the delivery guy.lol

jen|||Yeah, guess it is weird that you see vampires eating regular "people" food. I remember watching an episode of "Angel" where they explain that, although vampires crave blood for sustenance, they are certainly capable of ingesting regular food, although it holds no nutritional value for them.
Lost Boys, by the way, is a really cool movie!|||the point of the scene i think was to trick michael into drinking the blood so that he would become a vampire
so when star actual told him the wine was blood it actually was blood, but of course he didn't believe her cuz everyone was already messing with him

~|||Depends, but chinese take out is salty, and contains some oils, fats, etc. While pizza have grain, tomatoes, (including bunch of salt) and a lots of fat.

Da*n it, I want jelly bellys now! Haha, pear ones. Yummm
i have 100 1/2 pint chinese take out containers and im wanting to fill them with jelly beans...but im needing to know how many pounds of jelly beans i will need?|||The only way you can tell this is to fill one takeout box with jelly beans and then calculate from there. Below is a candy calculator that has popular items like jelly bellies, but first you have to mock up your favor before you can use it.
But. Those takeout boxes are huge containers if you're giving out candy. The tiny 2 x 2 favor boxes most people use actually hold quite a bit of candy, so your boxes are enormous. If you're really going this route, I would fill the bottom with a lot of shred and tie the jelly beans in a bag to sit on top ... either buy a lot of organza bags inexpensively or wrap them in tulle (super cheap by the yard) and tie off with ribbon or cord.|||63489 jelly beans. tell me if i win!!! what do i win i if i get it right??|||Get a package of jelly beans put 1 of the containers on a postal scale set it to zero, fill to desired capacity and see how much it weighs, multiply that weight by 100 and that should give you how many pounds you need. Hope those jelly beans are Jelly Belly. yummmmmmmmmmm|||tacky?!|||Shitzul's suggestion will work. You should also do that just to be sure the jelly beans aren't too heavy. Chinese take-out boxes aren't all that sturdy, and jelly beans are pretty heavy. You don't want the boxes breaking and the beans spilling out all over everywhere.|||The other person's suggestion will work, but that sounds like it will end up being a lot of jelly beans and the person is right who said the containers are not all that sturdy. I would suggest filling the clear (or printed) Cello bags with the jelly beans, tie with a ribbon and then put the bags in the boxes. The bags will not cost you much more (You can find packages of 25 at any Dollar Tree), and you may need less jelly beans. And, as a guest, I think I would like the idea of having the jelly beans contained a little better that just in a box, that could open on me.
Want to order delivery, umm, garlic is good too.|||nope, no spicy chinese delivery, and they are out of garlic|||Most Chinese take outs list which food are hot and spicy on the menu. If not, then order something Szechuan or Hunan. Ask if they'll give you some hot chili oil on the side, then you can make it as hot as you want (my Bf does this since he always wants it hotter!). My favorite is Hot and Sour Soup. Enjoy!|||I would order either shrimp or chicken with garlic sauce. Ask them to include a portion on the side of chili oil. Mix a small amount of the chili oil into your food until you get the desired spiciness you are looking for.|||Mapo Tofu isn't that spicy but is really nice. By the way, the spelling is Sichuan/Szechuan.|||just ask them to make it spicy they will or ask them to add more of what u like or ask for hot pepper sauce on the side and u can add what u like|||Mongolian Beef with extra of those little red things.|||Look for foods that have words like Hunan, Kung Pao or Schezwan.|||Sezhzuan(ok, I can't spell it) beef or chicken

This is fried rice with shrimp, beef, pork, and chicken.|||One cup of fried rice is 8.5 points. That doesn't include the meat. I'd just guess a ballpark figure for what you had & hopefully if you're not quite right you have some flex points left over to cover it.

Honey Teriyaki Chicken with Ripe Pineapple Spears and Black and White Rice Balls
2 cups water
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon salt, eyeball it
1 rounded cup white rice
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds, toasted white sesame seeds may be substituted
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Vegetable oil, for drizzling
Salt and pepper
1 cup chicken broth or water
1-inch ginger root, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 ripe pineapple
Preheat a grill pan or large griddle over medium high heat.
Bring water to a boil in a small covered pot. Add butter, salt and rice to the pot. Return the water to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and replace cover. Simmer 18 minutes and remove rice from heat. Take the lid off the pot to cool rice a bit. Scoop rice into balls with an ice cream scoop and your hands. Dampen hands with water to work with rice if it is very sticky. Set rice balls on a plate and sprinkle with black sesame seeds.
While your rice is cooking, lightly coat chicken with oil, salt and pepper. Place chicken on hot grill and cook 6 minutes on the first side.
While chicken is cooking, bring chicken broth and ginger to a boil. Stir in honey. When honey has dissolved into broth, add teriyaki sauce and sesame oil and reduce heat to simmer.
Turn chicken and coat liberally with honey teriyaki sauce using a basting brush. Cook chicken 4 minutes, turn again and baste liberally again with sauce, then cook 2 minutes longer. Remove chicken to a plate. Garnish chicken with sliced scallions.
While chicken cooks on the second side, peel and cut a ripe pineapple into 8 spears. Cut off top and bottom of pineapple. Set pineapple upright and trim away skin in strips from top to bottom. Halve pineapple lengthwise and quarter each 1/2, lengthwise. The core is edible, but may be trimmed if you wish. Pineapple can be very acidic. Spears set in cold water for just 1 minute will keep the fruit from stinging your lips when it is eaten. Serve with chicken and rice balls

Asian-Style Pork and Vegetable Noodles
Look for many of these ingredients on the Asian food aisle of your supermarket.
1 rounded tablespoon sweet-hot mustard
1/4 cup tamari, dark, sweet soy sauce, eyeball the amount
1/2 cup vegetable or chicken stock, or about half of one 14 ounce container
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil, from Asian foods aisle, a serious drizzle
2 boneless center-cut pork loin chop, 8 ounces each
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, 2 turns of the pan
1/2 to 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Salt and black pepper
1 carrot, cut into matchsticks
1 package (16 ounces) fresh linguini
12 to 16 shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced
3 inches fresh ginger root, finely chopped or grated
1 red bell pepper, seeded and sliced
5 scallions, thinly sliced on an angle
2 cups fresh bean spouts, 4 handfuls
3 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds or black sesame seeds, for garnish
Put a large pot of water on to boil for pasta.
Place sweet hot mustard in a bowl. Whisk in Tamari sauce. Add stock and sesame oil to the broth and soy. Set aside.
Slice the pork chop very thinly against the grain.
When water for pasta boils, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium high to high heat. To the skillet, add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, 2 turns of the pan in a slow stream. Add crushed pepper flakes to the oil, then the thinly sliced pork. Season pork with salt and pepper. Cook pork 2 minutes to caramelize the meat, then turn and stir-fry. Add salt to pasta water, then carrots. Blanch carrots for a minute, then remove with a slotted spoon. Add fresh linguini to boiling water. Transfer carrots to pork stir-fry. Add mushrooms, ginger, red bell pepper, scallions and bean sprouts. Toss and stir-fry veggies with pork for 2 minutes. Cook pasta to al dente. Drain and add to the pork and veggies. Pour Tamari and broth mixture over the noodles and pork. Toss and allow the noodles to completely soak up the liquids, a minute or so. Remove from heat.

2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 large carrots, diced
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 large red bell pepper, diced
3/4 cup fresh pea pods, halved

Stir in carrots, celery, red bell pepper, pea pods and green bell pepper and stir-fry another 5 minutes. Then add rice and stir thoroughly.
Finally, stir in scrambled eggs and 1/3 cup soy sauce, heat through and serve hot.|||Chicken Fried Rice
INGREDIENTS:
3 cups cooked rice (preferably several days old)
1 cup cooked chicken or turkey, cut into bite-size pieces, OR 1 cup raw chicken
4 Tbsp. chicken stock
2 cloves garlic, finely sliced or pressed
1/2 minced green or red chili for medium-spiced rice, OR 1-2 whole minced chilies for "hot" (omit chilli for mild)
2 Tbsp. fish sauce
3 Tbsp. peanut oil, or other good quality nut/vegetable oil
1/2 cup frozen peas
1 egg
3 spring onions, finely sliced
1/2 cup fresh coriander or basil
PREPARATION:
1. Prepare the cold rice by mixing in 1 Tbsp. of the oil. Stir well, separating the rice grains with your fingers to remove clumps.
2. Place remaining oil in a deep frying pan or wok. Add garlic and chili.
Stir-fry over medium-high heat until fragrant (30 seconds to 1 minute).
3. Add chicken (or turkey) and 2 Tbsp. stock. Stir-fry enough to thoroughly warm the meat, if cooked. If the chicken is raw, stir fry until cooked (2-5 minutes). Add more stock, as necessary, to prevent the pan from becoming overly dry.
5. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, push ingredients aside and crack egg into the wok/pan. Stir quickly to cook and break up the egg (like making scrambled eggs).
7. When egg is cooked and most of the broth/liquid has been absorbed, add the rice plus fish sauce. Stir fry, keeping the heat medium-high. Do not add any more broth/liquid at this point, or your rice will become soggy.
8. Add frozen peas and continue to stir-fry another 1-2 minutes, or until you can hear the rice "popping". Cooking Tip: It's important to keep the wok and rice dry, but if you find the rice is sticking, you can add a little more oil - this will make the rice "shine", like restaurant quality fried rice.
9. Do a taste-test for saltiness. If not salty enough, add a sprinkling of salt. (If it happens to be too salty for your taste, add up to 1 Tbsp. lime juice.)
10. Sprinkle with spring onion, plus coriander or basil, and serve hot from the wok/pan. Enjoy!|||here's a vid on how to make it. the video uses ham and egg, but you can substitute the ham for chicken, and skip the egg. video from a chinese restaurant, and professional cook.

They're larger than they look once you start putting things in them.

how many calories are in it?|||This depends very much on the restaurant and what ingredients they use, and the exact amount of food in a "regular-sized container," how much chicken vs. how many vegetables were in it, et cetera. Contact the restaurant for nutrition information. Alternately, you can guesstimate with an online calorie counter if you can figure out roughly how much of each ingredient you ate (and assume they're not adding a calorie-heavy sauce).

Italian, Chinese and Mex get awful ratings. Anything else gets a great rating.|||For me, I like the home cooked taste of these foods. They are layered with flavor and taste like they are cooked with love. They remind me of my childhood. We ate every ethnic food growing up, or should I say tried every ethnic food. I was very fussy as a child, now I'm just fussy. I cook these and all types of food though, whether I eat them or not, I have been doing so ever since I could remember. It's a gift I have, I can cook with my nose and usually never have to eat the food if I don't like it. As far as the soul food, I love grits. I eat them for breakfast but not too often because I learned to eat them with butter, cheese, eggs, and pork sausage and bacon, kinda high on calories. Mac and cheese also is top on the soul food list for me right next to collard greens. Cape Verdean dishes I love are, Kachupa, a stew with sausages, meats, root veggies, beans, greens and samp is a meal in a pot that cooks all day and Jag is a rice that is seasoned and cooked with beans in it.

Thai food is always tasty but like any food you have to try different places to get a good selection.|||i love Lebanese food....delish!|||Indian or Spanish.|||In considering Thai, Indian, Ethiopian, I'd have to go with Indian.
There are several good Thai places around here, but generally, a lot of the meat and veggies are shredded, and I prefer the texture of biting into chunks of food. My wife and I love Ethiopian, from the time we spent living in Chicago, but there aren't any restaurants around here. We've bought our own Ethiopian cookbook, but it's just not the same.
Indian, though, is plentiful around here. I love the variety - depending on the region, the food can be quite different. My favorite dish is probably Chicken Tikka Masala, with Mushroom Korma and Chicken Biryani tied for 2nd place.
I love bread, and the Indian Naan is a wonderful compliment to the meal, as you are expected to forego utensils for most of them and instead scoop up your food with pieces of naan. Naan is made by cooking it on the walls of the clay "tandoor" ovens, and is something that's so hard to replicate in other ways. When we cook our own indian food, we'll get orders of naan as takeout.
There's a decent-sized (and growing) Indian population around here, and we have a couple of Indian restaurants near by where we can get it. In our last house, we lived next door to an Indian family, and 3 doors down was the owner of one of the restaurants.|||my favorite is korean food. i grew up eating korean food, and still like to go out for korean bbq. other types of food i tend to only like certain items, but i really like korean food.
it's also easier to tell if it is spicy or not... the more red it is, the better likelyhood that it is spicy...
there are a few pretty decent korean restaurants within 20 minutes of where i live, but los angeles probably has the most authentic korean food without actually going to korea....|||There's a great Mediteranean/MiddleEastern place in my city. I'm there at least once a month. My favorite dish is the Iskender Kabob. It's shaved beef & lamb off of a slowly spinning rack, piled on top of a fluffy stone-oven cooked bread, and drizzled with a spicy thin tomato-based sauce as well as a yogurt sauce. Service with pickled cabage and marinated onion slices. That description doesn't do it justice - here's a picture of it: http://www.alibabarestaurants.com/kabobs…
I'm also a big fan of their chicken shish, meat pide, and of course, the amazingly good lavash bread. It's an unleavened bread that is cooked in the aforementioned stone oven, that rises into a great big bread bubble as it cooks. When it arrives on the table, we gently "pop" it to release the hot steam, and immediately start salivating at the smell. This is served with the yogurt sauce for dipping.

then .. and I don't even know this place's name.. but it is @ 75 and Eldorado in Mckinney.. it's a Japanese buffet and is phenomenal... amazing...

I'm ordering Sesame chicken with pork fried rice and I was wondering how unhealthy are the typical dishes that people order?|||Chinese takeout is just as healthy or unhealthy as any American, Italian food because it's not the type of cuisine that matters, it's what you order that makes the difference. Sesame chicken is battered chicken deep fried and slathered with a sauce that's sweet and sour, basically the same with any chicken burger in which the chicken is deep fried and the burger comes with mayonnaise or ketchup, the Italians will add cheese on top of everything. There are many healthy choices when ordering Chinese take-out, stir fried chicken or beef with vegetables, mushroom with steam rice will cut the calories in half.

You can improve on the healthiness of most chinese dishes simply by getting the sauce on the side.
Also, get steamed rice instead of fried rice. Even if it's not on the menu, ask for it. They have to steam the rice before they fry it.
If you just must have sauce, go for the ligter, clearer sauces rather than thicker, sweeter ones.,|||If you can get steamed meat/veggies and sauce on the side, and brown rice, then you can create a meal that's nutritious without a ton of calories and fat.|||Steamed veggies.

Cover and cook about 8 minutes, longer if you want the broccoli less crunchy. Then in a bowl combine 1 teaspoon cornstarch with 1 to 2 tablespoons cold water. Mix until cornstarch is dissolved.

http://www.chinesefood-recipes.com/chine鈥?/a>|||Here is a recipe that I found to be the closest to the restaurant styled one.
Basic Chinese Brown Sauce
In a measuring cup, combine:

* 1/2 c. water
* 0.5 - 1 Tbl. grated ginger
* 1 tsp. chopped garlic (1 clove)
* 1 Tbl. cornstarch
* 1 Tbl. molasses
Basic Directions:
1) Cook any meat first. Remove it from the pan.
2) Stir-fry your veggies.
3) Mix up all the sauce ingredients in a measuring cup.
4) Add a few pieces of hot veggies to the measuring cup to pre-heat the cornstarch.
5) Dump all the sauce into the pan with the veggies (and add the meat back, if using) and bring to a boil.
6) Simmer for a minute or two until the sauce is clear and thickened.

is white rice high in carbs?|||White rice is white rice, and rice is nothing BUT carbs. This is not to say it is unhealthy, but if you are looking to lose weight, you may want to avoid white rice or eat it in moderation.
EDIT
The CNN study above is what is called a health scare tactic or nutritional fundamentalism. Of the 48000 people they studied, they noticed that the heaviest eaters of carbs where more prone to disease. Well yes, the heaviest carb eaters where most likely obese and therefore at greater risk for heart disease.
Carbs, including white rice and bleached flour are completely healthy when eaten in moderation.|||AHHHHHHHHH..
Dont touch that white rice, NO...Bad....
Eat brown rice, its so much better for you. "White rice" is really polished rice where the husk and dark outer layer are polished off. These outer layers are where all the nutrients exist, leaving just the carbohydrate part of the kernel.
also. White bread, rice, and other carbs boost heart disease risk in women.
yes higher in carb

"Beef, chicken, shrimp, crabmeat, scallops and mixed vegetables stir-fried in four seasons sauce"
"Lobster, shrimp, scallops, and New Zealand Mussels w/ mixed vegetables in a delicate brown sauce"
A "delicate brown sauce" is usually a beef-based, ginger-ladened, spicy sauce - but it can also be an oyster-sauce with sezchuan spicy paste.

I realize that every Chinese restaurant has their own recipe for this, so I am just really asking for an overview. Is the hot garlic sauce that's used on chicken or on vegetables low-fat or is it pretty high in calories? Thanks.|||Generally speaking, if it's oily it's likely fatty and not exactly diet fare.
But yes, each restaurant will have their own way of doing things, and some are certainly more health-conscious in their dishes than others.
The first link below estimates an average cup of it at 668 calories, and the fat--including saturated fat--and sodium are sky high.|||Most of them are a combination of peanut oil and soy sauce, with garlic and other spices thrown in. So it isn't fat free, but it's not bad fat either. And because of the variations, I can't give you a guess on the calories. What's the worst thing about the sauces is that they are very high in salt.
If you're concerned about fat and calories, the best thing is to order the steamed dishes.|||Most chinese restaurants use peanut oil as a base for that sauce. It has some fat, but similar to olive oil and avocados, it is a "good" fat that your body needs. A general rule of thumb is that as long as a sauce is not sweet or thick and creamy its okay. Sweet and sour sauce, red french dressing, syrups......anything cheese or cream based, mayo, gravies, etc. should be avoided. You do need to watch out for the salt and msg though which can cause water retention and is not good for your heart. Happy dieting!

Traditional breakfast foods also offer the same good and bad choices.|||i eat pizza, pasta, salmon, sandwiches for breakfast all the time...
no weirder than eating eggs or pancakes at dinnertime.|||OH but who am? a mom, cake is good to. Not the breakfast of champions|||Hello!
To most people, it is not normal to eat such items at breakfast. However, with working two jobs, I often don't have enough time to make a half-way decent breakfast, so I wind up rewarming whatever was left over from the night before. My favorite non-traditional breakfast food is Spaghettios with Meatballs. Although such eating may not be normal, it is probably more common than most think.|||Breakfast is in the eye of the beholder.|||Yes. Breakfast is just the first meal of the day. It doesn't matter what you eat, and if you wake up around noon then it seems perfectly normal to eat whatever as breakfast.|||Well, it's definitely weird, but I do it all the time, and my friends also think I'm weird. But who cares...it's food right?|||heck yea...it's called "break the fast", not "break the cereal". You can eat whatever you want.|||I think it's normal, and I do it. Those types of foods seem to stick with me longer, leaving me less hungry until lunch time. Plus, they're loaded with protein. There's nothing wrong with it. I'd rather eat a slize of pizza which has meat, dairy, vegetables and carbohydrates on it rather than pancakes which are nothing more than carbs and some sticky syrup and relatively unhealthy.|||It is rather heavy food for the morning. I don't think it is a common habit..hmm.. want to correct my last comment- I didn't think it was common until I read the other posts lol! I don't think i could eat a heavy breakfast in the morning.|||I believe most people do, and really what is 'normal' anyway?|||Maybe unhealthy but if you like them why not?

Thanks for your help!!!|||OMG my parents own a chinese restaurant and my fave. dish is wonton soup...the Hong Kong Style...wontons are like dumplings and they have shrimp, pork and scalions with other veggies then they are wraped in wonton skin and cooked so served over soup with egg noodles in chicken broth with other veggies...and if you have an egg roll (which has veggies, peanut butter, and pork, and cabbage in it then deep fried in a egg roll skin) it tastes great!..YUM|||At Panda Express I like to have Orange Chicken. It's not that spicy but it has a kick in it that makes it #1 Chinese dish. For a side dish, I love Chow Mein. It looks disgusting but it tastes great. For a appitizer, I love Egg Drop Soup. It has peas, carrots and eggs that are scrambled. YUM! My mouth is watering just thinking about this stuff.|||General Tso Chicken.

YUM!|||beef and broccoli here.....hmmmm so good|||chop suey
What kind of sauce are they using? It's delicious!|||It's very simple to make.
The main ingredient is just dark soy sauce (I use the Silver Swan brand, which comes in a glass bottle), generously drizzled over the noodles while cooking. You also need a tablespoon or two of sesame oil and a handful of chopped scallions/green onions.
Add scrambled eggs, snow peas, diced carrots, shrimp (pre-cooked), to suit your taste!|||Oh yeah, chicken broth will give it a little extra flavor without too much saltiness. The tablespoon of cornstarch just thickens the sauce a bit, and oyster sauce can be added for a twist of flavor. Report Abuse

If you look at the texture of the meat on a chicken Terriyaki stick, you will notice that it is usually very stringy and in-consistent with what you will find when you order 'fried chicken' or what your mom cooks. Why is this? Is it actually chicken? I personally think they are using Rabbit or some other type of meat. What do you think?|||Dog, cat, rat, pigeon, etc.|||I'm glad I don't go to where YOU go since you are apparently getting something besides chicken.

There are a few restaurants that have a relatively high percentage of Asian diners, and I frequent those.

There is one in particular I really love that says it is Cantonese cuisine yet serves sushi. The dishes are especially fresh tasting and flavorful but still simple.

Servings: Serves 4.Glutinous rice is distinctively aromatic and appealingly chewy.
Before being steamed, it requires at least 3 hours of soaking (overnight is fine, too).
Ingredients:
2 cups Thai glutinous rice
Preparation:
Cover rice with plenty of water in a large bowl and soak at room temperature at least 3 hours.
Drain and put in a cheesecloth-lined steamer basket.
Steam rice, covered, over boiling water until shiny and tender, about 20 minutes.
Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes before serving.
Note:
鈥?Lao cooks use a large, conical steamer basket for steaming the rice, but we found that a footed colander or the steamer insert of a pasta pot worked well, too.
Sticky Rice
Servings: Makes 6 servings.
Ingredients:
3 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups short-grain rice (such as sushi rice)
Preparation:
Bring water to boil in small saucepan.
Stir in salt and rice; bring to boil.
Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until water is absorbed and rice is tender, about 17 minutes.
Remove pan from heat.
hope these help. enjoy.|||You can steam it or boil it, I would boil it unless you have a steamer. DO NOT STIR a lot. Rice has starch in it, the more you stir it the more it breaks down the starch. The chinese food rice is cooked in a rice cooker (boiled) however they just scoop it out when it is done. The more you stir, the looser it gets. Hope this helps.

1) Add 1 cup long-grain rice (I prefer Mahatma jasmine rice for it's cleanliness and aroma) to a 2-quart tight-fitting pan.
2) Rinse rice with cold water about 6 times until water runs clear.
3) Add 1-1/2 cups cold water to pan, stir, cover, but allow cover to rise up on one side a bit.
4) Bring to boil, reduce heat to low, and boil for exactly 5 minutes.
5) Cover pot tightly with lid, and allow to simmer on low for exactly 10 minutes.
6) Remove from heat, and allow to stand for 15 minutes.
7) Uncover and fluff rice with fork.

I do know that if you get a to-go box at China View, and ask for more rice, it comes in a container like you describe.|||I know what you mean. I live in Houston, was born and raised here.

There maybe some places that give them, but so far I haven't seen it from the Chinese restaurants in Houston. Also, I think the little boxes are not what most Chinese restaurants are using anymore(old-fashioned I believe) and mostly for show on television. I haven't found them in other places either.

I'm writing a historical novel, and need to know the name of the little take-out place on about 47th & Sandy in Portland. I know it was there in the early 70's but I'm not sure how long before or after. I ran across a picture of it online awhile back, and forgot to bookmark it - if you find that, I will definitely give you best answer!
Thanks so much!
Lilly|||I know exactly which restaurant you are talking about. I visited the take-out place at 4644 NE Sandy once when I lived in the area in 2001. It looked like it hadn't changed in decades when I visited. I thought it was so strange that they only had take-out. It was very old style, greasy, MSG laced Chinese take-out.
I Googled the address and came up with Kwan Ying's Kitchen.
Or is most like an original chinese or asian dish?
MMM tasty.|||steamed rice,pot stickers,buns,egg-foo-yung egg drop soup,hot sour soup, most of these things are pretty close the chinsese people are proud of thier food so unless it's real bad then its pretty close the the real thing.. new york /chicago/frisco. all have china towns check em out you be glad you did..|||Mostly fusion now, they want make it more simple,easy to prepare, less work. In the old day when u see a signs read chinese/america food means they do both dishes. I learned many whites think Chinese don't know how to cook america food, even many worked in american kitchens, in services, or graduated from best culinary school. I think its all a stereotype.|||If you have a local Chinese restaurant that serves Dim Sum, many of those dishes will be 'closer' to what you might eat in China than anything else. Most Chinese meals are rice with little side dishes to flavor it rather than the typical American "big pile of meat in sauce" with rice on the side.
Find a local place serving Dim sum and you will meet the "real" Chinese people that live nearby...be sure to try the chicken feet! (at least once!)

okay my mom and I are having an argument. I ordered chinese food a total of $17 to be delivered to my home. The weather is fine and the delivery is free.
So, I wanted to tip the guy $3 ... thats about 15%

what do you think?|||$3.00 would be about right, since it's a little over 15%. He's not getting a delivery charge, and he has to pay for gas.|||I tip them at least $5... you can't even pay for gas with a $3 dollar tip >.<

what do you usually get when you order chinese?|||I love the General Tso's Chicken too, but i always tell them not spicy, also i love the mushrooms in the sauce (don't know the name) and veggie lo mein is good too. I normally don't try anything that i cant pronounce the name too! lol |||oh man i lovvve crab rangoons. pork wontons and egg or spring rolls are really good too. i can't handle spicy food at all, haha, so i usually get stuff like orange chicken, chicken teriyaki, or some kind of lo mein. and i put duck sauce on pretty much everything, haha. i love chinese food!!|||I usually get the general tsos shrimp, lo mein, and shrimp fried rice.I like to get the general tsos shrimp spicy sometimes too.|||For appys I love their spare ribs and spring rolls

I am a boarder line intermediate mandarin speaker, but I always wondered how to order chinese over the phone. I think it would be really neat and great for helping me practice my Zhōng wén. Please if you could be very detailed, it wound be GREATLY appreciated!!! :)|||It's pretty much the same as you would in English.
喂 (wéi) is the telephone greeting used in Mandarin.
"I want to order take out" is "我想叫外卖。" (wǒ xiǎng jiào wàimài 。)
So just call and say "喂, 我想叫外卖。"
They will ask you what you want [你要甚麽 (nǐ yào shénme)] and that's pretty much it.
My husband didn' believe me that our local Chinese take-out places don't serve brown rice. He called and confirmed, they don't have it on the menu. But why?|||Don't be racist.|||it takes longer too cook ,and most people don't care|||idk but its good?|||price is why they don't use it. BUT KEEP ASKING AND THE WILL|||Most Chinese places just have white rice and fried rice, but PF Chang's has delicious brown rice, as well as both white and fried. If you have a favorite place, maybe you could ask the manager to include brown rice. It's much healthier for you, but it does take longer to cook.|||well they say that in china the poor people eat brown rice and the rich people eat white rice i learned it in school|||its mostly ethnic|||Don't they already serve rice that's brown?
I've been to a couple indian places and enjoy the curry chicken, thinking about trying it at the chinese place. Thoughts?|||Don't bother. :(
The chinese restaurant doesn't make it like Indians. They use different spice blends and they don't roast the spices first which is crucial. I've tried it in countless places across the country thinking it was only the restaurant but they all disappointed me and tasted bland.
No offense to the Chinese I think they are some of the best chefs on earth but each peoples has their own specialty. The Indians have spice dishes and the Chinese have theirs, I've yet to taste any non-chinese that can cook chinese food as good as a seasoned chinese chef!|||Chinese place will usually give you whatever you want. I know i have asked for a few veggies above and beyond what was included in my meal and they gave them to me with no problem. I have also ask for some a different sauce than what was included and got that with no problem too.
I said all that to say that they can definitely cook and the curry chicken will probably be just fine. However, I'd probably lean towards a Thai restaurant if I wanted to have an Asian curry dish.|||Depends on the place. I've tried really great curry chicken at Chinese places but on the other hand, sometimes, it just tastes like chicken, oil, and heat. It's a hit or miss, if you're willing to take the risk.|||It's usually mild, like most mainstream Chinese dishes. If you enjoy Indian curry, you'd probably like Malaysian/Indonesian curries too.|||It would be as good as from an Italian restaurants......neither the Chinese nor the Italian knows how to make curry. Period.|||I suggest you try it but it won't be as good as indian !! Indian curry is the best
So, I read Kate Bush ate Chinese food and like.. I like Kate Bush & Chinese food, and I wanted to know if Australian's way to Chinese food is the same/very very similar to the British way of it? Is the Aussie way more like Americans, maybe? Which one is healthier: The Australian way, or the British way?|||I think it depends who the chef is. I mean if in the UK or Australia a Chinese chef is cooking the food then to me thats 100% authentic chinese food.|||I think the only places where you can eat authentic Chinese food is at the local places of origin in China.
Be it UK or Aussie, we are all eating some kind of fusion Chinese food. The UK people have been eating Chinese food longer than the Aussies, so I guess the Chinese food in UK would be more authentic.|||Australian Chinese food is completely different to the stuff you get in the UK. It's probably more authentic (maybe due to it's closer proximity to China).
Edit: The UK eating Chinese food longer would make it less authentic. It's had far more time to adapt to the tastes of the locals.
I eat a chinese take out with my wife once a week. During the week we cook and eat well and are in fairly good shape. A friend recently said that chinese take-out is full of MSG and was really really bad for your health. Now my relaxed Sunday with a take-out and a DVD is under threat... Any one with some light on this subject? Thanks.|||MSG is actually really bad for you, but now a lot of Chinese food restaurants are MSG-free. They usually show the "No MSG" sign on the front of their menus, but if not you can always ask them if they still have it in their food. If the place you are going still has it, I would definitely recommend going to a different restaurant that no longer uses it because the toxins can be quite devistating to women who are pregnant, and to a normally healthy body.
Another thing you should probably be concerned about is the fat in these foods. They are really unhealthy, but if you only consume the take out once a week then it's up to you on what you want to go into your body.
For your question though, I would definitely make sure you are are eating from a restaurant that is "MSG-Free."|||I usually get the steamed chicken and broccoli and add a light soy sauce, that's pretty healthy.|||Indulging yourself once a week is a rather good thing. Some people choose cake, some choose mexican, and others still, like you, choose to dine on Chinese food. Instead of never allowing yourself a treat, you've mastered the idea of a balance of a good diet and being in shape-so having chinese food once a week isn't going to have a hugely negative effect on you.
Now that MSG has fallen beneath a negative limelight, more and more chinese restaurants are switching to dishes that include no MSG. MSG is a cheap way to make things taste slightly better than they did before--without the more expensive spices. It also poses a threat to nerves though, because MSG has been noted as being a potent neurotoxin. The neurons become so overly excited by MSG that they die, which is one of the reasons that people living in China have an increased rate of glaucome.
Call your favorite chinese take-out restaurant and inquire whether they do use MSG in their cooking. They'll know right away.
Be careful that when you do get chinese that you don't buy so much that you're actually eating it for lunch several days afterwards...then it's no longer a weekly treat but more of a food staple, not necessaril y a good thing unless you're only ordering steamed vegetables and grilled (not delectably fried) meats.
Happy eating!|||Any restaurant foods in general had hidden additives. I personally would say its not that great for your health. Its not just the MSG its also the added salt and sugar in your sauces as well as added fats and oils.
Home made Chinese food is much much much better for you because you can minimize your additives.
Tips for ordering (link provided below where I found this)
When ordering an appetizer, keep in mind that egg drop, wonton or hot and sour soups have less fat and calories than an egg roll, fried dumplings or spareribs.
Select foods that are steamed, broiled or roasted. Words such as coated, twice-cooked, batter-coated, marinated or crispy suggest a food is prepared in a way that increases its fat content.
Avoid crispy chow mein noodles, which are high in fat.
Good low-fat Chinese entrees include: chicken, beef, pork or shrimp chow mein, chop suey, moo goo gai pan, and stir-fried meat with vegetables.
Request dishes with as little sauce as possible or, better yet, with the sauce on the side. Sauces, seasonings, marinades and hot oil cooking can greatly increase the sodium and fat content of seemingly healthy dishes -- such as steamed vegetables and fish. Ask for reduced sodium soy sauce if you're watching your sodium intake. Duck and plum sauces are fat-free, but high in sugar.
Order steamed rice instead of fried rice. Eat more rice and less of the entree. The rice will fill you up, with less fat.
To decrease calorie intake, share large restaurant entrees with a companion or bring the leftovers home to enjoy at another meal.
For dessert, have a fortune cookie, of course!|||Well Its Not Good
But If Your In Good Shape Then Thats Ok Just Make Sure You Stay Like That
Tbh Its Not Up To Your Friend Its Up To You!|||depends on what you get, sesime chicken is like taking three big macs and putting them on rice!
try out some mushu tofu, and make sure they don't fry the tofu, great stuff and harmless!|||that's not good.i use to eat it at least once a week and i stop now i eat it 3 times a month|||most of the MSG is in the sauces they use. Ask for your meat grilled, your vegetables steamed and your sauce on the side so you can limit the amount of it you eat, if you eat any at all. Also as yummy as it is go for white rice (or brown if they have it!) instead of the friend rice, it's high in MSG and sodium too!|||Chinese Food has too much oil which will spoil your body's health. Plus the Mono Sodium Glutamate, the artificial colours in the sauce, Ajinomoto, the taste enhancer can cause cancer!!!.
If I were to order something that had more veggies than meat, and if the meat wasn't fried, would you say that's a healthier alternative than the average take-out? Is it better than, say, McDonald's or a pizza?|||Dirtiest food going. I'd say anything was more healthier than a chinese.|||It MIGHT probably be a little "healthier" than mcdonalds or pizza... here are HEALTHY recipes for pizza, stir fry, and burger (from youtube)!!

& for a healthy lemonade recipe: freshly squeeze 1-2 lemons into a glass of water. add ice-cubes and a little stevia, stir everything together and add a straw... and you have a great, refreshing drink that's low in calories and helps to raise your pH level because of the lemons!|||That's difficult to say, I think most of the time it would be better, because a lot of the family owned restaurants make their foods from scratch, and then you will get the benefit of the fresh veggies, so I'd say it's healthier. Pizza can be healthy too, if it's made in a healthy way. I think they're both pretty good, I'd keep my distance from McDonald's food personally.|||Not good. Possibly worse than McDonald's. There is heavy fried coating on much of it. Even if there are vegetables, they are coated in sugar sauce...and then add the rice. If you want proof you can eat fast food and actually lose weight, check out the movie "Fat Head". Funny and educational.|||the killer on any take out is the salt content. some chinese food is fried, and has more fat that you realize. i like general tao,s chicken. probably worse than chicken mcnuggets.|||Define "average"
i absolutely love pork potstickers, but i can't find a recipie that tastes like the chine take-out ones. i know i can taste scallion, ginger, sesame oil, and garlic, but i'm not sure of the other ingredients.|||Here is a recipe I use, however I use shredded cabbage in place of the spinach.
http://www.fast-and-delicious.com/chines鈥?/a>|||This is the recipe I've used - I got it from the package of potsticker wrappers:
1lb ground pork
1/2 large cabbage, shredded
3-4 green onions, sliced
1-2 tbls fresly ground ginger (yes, freshly ground)
3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tbls seasame oil
1/4C soy sauce
Take a sheet pan and line it with paper towels or a clean dish towel. Spread the cabbage out on the towel, liberally sprinkle with salt, cover with a 2nd towel, a 2nd sheet pan, and put some heavy cans on top to weigh the pan down. Let sit for an hour. After an hour, briefly rinse the cabbage to remove the salt and then wring out in more dry towels. It is imperative you remove as much water as possible.
Combine all the filling ingredients in a large bowl and mix with your hands as if you're making meatloaf. If you like, you can let this sit in the fridge until you're ready to make the potstickers. I like to let the mixture sit an hour in the fridge to let the flavors mingle anyways.
To make the pot stickers, place a rounded spoonful of filling in the middle of the wrapper. Wet the edges with some water, then wrap it. You can use a variety of techniques, from crimping like you see on gyoza, or just a simple pinch like you see on pot stickers.
To cook, get a large frying pan over med-high heat. NO OIL. When the pan is hot, quickly arrange the pot stickers, flat side down, in the pan. They can touch, so get as many in there as you can. Now pour 1/4-1/3C of water over the pot stickers, and clamp on a lid. Cook covered for 5 minutes. Remove the lid and continue cooking until the water has completely evaporated. This will give the potstickers their characteristic brown bottoms. Turn off the heat and remove from pan. You can sometimes just flip the whole pan over onto a plate, and they'll come out in one large pretty bunch.
Serve with soy sauce for dipping, on the side.|||This my favorite recipe for pork potstickers. The ingredient you may be missing is the shrimp. I do not care for cabbage, so I leave that out. I also prefer them panfried versus steamed.

Can anyone offer advice on a healthy option for Chinese take-out? I'm looking for lowest fat, calories, and sodium. I'm mulling over the following choices for lunch today:
Ginger Chicken
Chicken w/Broccoli
Chicken or Pork Lo Mein
Szechuan Beef
Thanks!|||Chicken w/broccoli would be best. I would opt to not eat fried rice with it though. Instead use the white rice or brown rice if they have it. And of course water is your best option to wash it down. I had chinese yesterday. YUM|||Go for Chicken with brocolli (chicken is leaner than pork and the fact that brocolli is a veggie counts as healthy) and instead of getting the rice go for the steamed veggie, drop the lo-mein or rice and no sodas go for water!!!.. Happy Eating|||Chicken with Broccoli would be my healthy choice.|||Steamed chicken with broccoli and brown rice and brown sauce on the side.|||I would select Chicken/ Broccoli.
Reason: Ginger Chicken sounds deep-fry with a sweet glaze, Lo Mein is processed with unknown amount of sodium, szechuan beef has a higher fat content than chicken most of the time.
Enjoy!|||Well... probably chicken w/broccoli but if you want healthy asian food, see if you can find a thai food place that will deliver.|||Probably Chicken w/Broccoli ~
I got some pretty bad soggy General Tso's chicken take out last night and I am going to try to see if I can make something out of the leftovers. Is there any way to make it less soggy and have some better texture and flavor?|||Try baking the chicken in the oven.|||Unless you're adding fresh vegetables or something else that has some texture to it, there's no way to do this. Reheating it in any way will just make it more soggy and overcooked.
See if you can get some fried wonton noodles and use the Gen'l Tso's as a sauce for them. The sauce will soften the noodles a little so you don't feel like you're crunching on twigs and the noodles in turn will give it some texture.|||I'm sorry about your food..my parents own a chinese restaurant so let me tell u what we can let our customers do...well first if they don't want their food to get too soggy if they're taking stuff to go is that they can ask for the sauce on the side, and then when you go home just put how much you want on ur chicken...then you have sauce on the side and the sauce doesn't make ur chicked as soggy..you can also re-fry the chicken..but since the sauce is there you really can't do that...I would just cook it in a wok or pan to make it seem more fresh..that helps somewhat....but there's really no other way to make food fresh again...
So next time just ask the restaurant ur going to, to put the sauce on the side...or maybe make the chicken extra crispy (i mean tell the restaurant too)|||I usually reheat General Tso's in my wok. Nothing is going to compare to the fresh dish - but refrying it in the pan is worlds better than the soggy mess it becomes in the microwave.|||LAy out some foil on a cookie sheet... place the chicken spread out on it... BROIL in the oven until its sizzling.... leave the oven door open while broiling.
This always helps crisp up soggy left overs!!|||Re-fry it or put it in the oven on broil to make it crispy again.|||put more breading then deep fry it!!!|||broil it

I just ordered it on the internet and got it delivered to my home.|||At Least once a week, sometimes twice but I am really tryin to cut back so I may refrain for the next two weeks.|||Not usually more than half a dozen times a year because it is too expensive for my favourite dishes.

I am ordering Bourbon chicken for a buffet party this weekend and also preparing lots of other foods such as home made mac & cheese, boneless pork ribs, and mashed potatoes with shallots. When I order the bourbon chicken from Chinese take out, they will give me lots of white rice with the take out order.

Is there anything I can do to rice after it has been cooked to alter it and bring this rice to a new and tasty side dish?|||Broccoli cheese and rice casserole would go nice with your ribs. I have an aunt that served this every holiday. We loved it, easy to make and serve. And she used cheddar, not American. I put two different ones here, so you could choose.
You might want to make a stir fry of your own with the rice, They are easy, and you do not need a wok. You could make flavored rice to go with a chinese entree like mongolian beef, or a seafood dish.

If you can't find Black vinegar, you can use sushi vinegar instead (if you can't find either - use distilled/white vinegar, but lessen the amount to taste).
Chinese Dumplings (Jiaozi or Potstickers) Dipping Sauce
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons black rice vinegar
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
optional: 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
optional: 1 teaspoon finely grated garlic
optional: 1 teaspoon mirin (sweet rice wine) or Sugar
optional: 1 teaspoon chili sauce - not the red kind (or use Tabasco sauce)
optional: 2 -3 dashes sesame oil (to get that real Chinese flavor sauce but, if you don't have, you don't need to add)
Preparation:
Mix all black rice vinegar and light soy sauce
and add one or more of the optional ingredients.
Let the dipping sauce infuse a few minutes before serving.|||Hmmm, this could be tricky as dipping sauces vary with dumplings and the main one shouldn't really be too sweet.
Jiaozi, the standard japanese dumpling tends to be eaten with a dipping sauce made with soy and rice vinegar. I occasionally add a little sesame oil to mine...or if i'm making a batch, could bash garlic and chilli to a smooth paste with a little sugar and salt, before combining with the soy sauce and rice vinegar for a slightly hotter sauce.
In dim sum restaurants, you often get a little plate with a take on sweet chilli sauce, this is a sweeter orange coloured sauce and your best bet is to find a bottle at your local asian supermarket.
Am having a chinese meal in with the girls, and want to serve in the american style chinese take out cartons. Cannot find any in UK, only favour boxes, and in the U.S can only get about 100 cartons at one time.
Any ideas?|||In the US I saw some at the store called the Dollar Tree once and they have online site also. Don't know if they still have them but here is the link so you can check. And everything really was a dollar there!

preferably without oyster sauce or sherry, because I don't have those on hand. please give me recipes you have tried and think taste very close to the Chinese take-out beef and broccoli. should I marinate the beef first? thanks!|||There are a few ways in replacement of oyster sauce or sherry.
1) sprinkle some chicken essence
2) stir fry with ready made chicken stock
3) just add salt and sugar
Always marinate and tenderize the beef.|||i fell on this one day for the kids
yes marinate,,, i use Whorchester and garlic in one cup of beef(i use coffee cups):
i use fresh ginger and teriaki
also i use pork and marinate in Durkee's Frank's Red Hot, any cayenne hot sauce will do,,,, all in seperate cups
start making the rice,,,i like 1/4 white wine, 1/4 chicken and or beef broth/stock, one 1/2 water...a dose of butter and salt
get the broccoli, chopped or flowered as you wish in the steamer
whip out the Wok or your fav cast iron,, olive oil and onions,,,saute

put the fire to the Broc for 6 minutes,,,7 if its big pieces
add the rice to the Wok, dump the tasty goodness and meat on top and mix with a fork(never use a spoon on rice:),,, add the steamed Broc and viola!!
My best friend is coming over tomorrow for the inauguration. She is on Weight Watchers and I am also trying to loose weight through healthy eating and exercise. What can we order from Chinese take out or somewhere fast to have for dinner?|||Nothing! Chinese food is very fattening. Better try to order something else or make sure you go to the market and get some grilled chicken and salad fixings.|||If you order Chinese food get rice and steamed vegetables and maybe some kind of beef it all depends. Or you could go to Subway and eat fresh. your friend could get the cheese sub and you could get whatever maybe the turkey sub or ham sub. $ 5 foot longs are cheap too.|||You shouldn't be going Chinese restaurant because of most of food is unhealthy. Eat steamed vegetables, meat, rice, vegetable dumplings, some certain dim sum AVOID anything Fried, especially meat items like sour pork, general tso's|||The fortune cookie. You might want to split one, instead of getting one each, though.
A couple of these little red peppers/chilis are put in many Chinese take-out dinners. They pack a pretty nice punch. What kind of pepper is it?|||They're called Chile de Arbol. They're found in Asian, Indian and especially Mexican cooking. You can find them at any Mexican Market or Grocery!|||Sliced red or green bell peppers. Do not eat a small red bell pepper in its own. Its so spicy that you'll shed tears, really!|||i dont know. do you have a specific dish that contains it? then i might know what you are talkin about.|||red pepper flakes This is what the chinese use in many of their dishes and in hot & sour soup they can pack quite a punch depending on how much is used|||szechuan peppers|||jalapenos?
My friend and i are planning on setting up a chinese take out restaurant. We really do not have money to pay a consultant to do this for us. We will appreciate any information and advise. We need advise on the business generally how best to go about it, utensils to use and menus.|||Premises will be the major start up expense associated with a Chinese restaurant. The cost of renting or purchasing suitable premises will depend significantly on the location you choose. You will need to ensure the location is easily accessible for the range of customers you could attract, and that the surrounding areas have plenty of parking. It will also be necessary to budget for the renovation and refurbishment of the premises to ensure they meet with current hygiene standards.
Depending on the state of the premises you choose, you may need to fit out the kitchen with non-porous work surfaces and a range of industrial cooking equipment, such as industrial ovens (from 拢1,500 each), an extraction system (from 拢500), industrial fridges and freezers (from 拢800) and dishwashers (from 拢400). In addition you will need to invest in a number of woks, as well as general kitchen equipment such as knives, pans and chopping boards.
The restaurant will need to be welcoming and comfortable for diners, and you will need to budget for a range of tables of different sizes (from 拢50 each for a small two person table, to 拢250 for larger tables), as well as chairs (from 拢50 each). You may choose to fit out a bar area with comfortable couches where customers can wait until their table is ready. You will also need to budget for linen, crockery, cutlery, glasses and cups. The Catering Equipment Distributors Association (CEDA - www.ceda.co.uk) provides information on suppliers across the UK who will be able to provide detailed costings.
Generic expenses to budget for include utilities, a PC and printer for taking customer bookings and keeping records (from 拢400), insurance, staff uniforms, and the costs associated with advertising and marketing your restaurant.
Shop around and see who will supply cheap menus, maybe you could even design them yourselves on a computer but most printing comapanies will offer the service, just go with the cheapest|||Associations may be a good avenue to explore.

If you don't have any experience, it will be better for you to buy an existing Chinese take-out restaurant instead of setting up a new one. You can find many Chinese take-out restaurant that are on-sale in the Chinese newspaper. You don't need to pay a consultant fee, but the seller will teach you everything, or even allow you to learn with them for a few months (They teach you everything including where to get source of the food and supplies, how to prepare each dish, how to take order if your English is not good and even driving direction to local address etc.) The cost of buying one usually is cheaper than setting up a new one as you also bought all used tools (If you are counting all the cost including adveristing, lose money for first few months, license to meet different requirements etc.) The seller will give you some record of how many business the take-out will get for each month etc.
Well... I have a couple friends. Originally, they are nothing to do with Restaurant business, but they both are owners of a Chinese take-out. Both of them never enters kitchen before owning a Chinese take-out. Their Take-out still runs fine.
- Maybe you will ask why people are selling their business if they are profitable.
A Chinese take out opens every day from 11 to 11, plus 1 or 2 hours of preparation. You are going to work over 12 hours a day and at least 6 days a week. You need a partner - mostly spouse, you may have 1 day off per week. No public holiday except 1 day Thanksgiving, and no vacation. You gain money but no time to spend at all. You will know why you want to sell it even it is in good profit after 10 years or so. (There are quite some people retire at late 40 to early 50 and went back to China. Or selling their business, and take a year or two as vacation, and buy another one when the vacation is off.)
I would like to be able to make my favorite Chinese take out recipes at home, such Chicken or beef w/ broccoli, Chicken chow mein, General tso, sesame chicken etc and all the other favorites. Now I have a wok and the utensils, but I can't seem to find the recipes that would give me the same types of foods that I would get at the Chinese restaurant. Any ideas?|||This book was recommended highly to me: Ken Hom's Quick and Easy Chinese Cooking. I just got a copy so I don't know if it is as good as I was told but you might want to check it out.

A friend and I are discussing chinese take out while we are eating beef & broccoli we just picked up.
Our question is this...what makes the beef chinese food stores use so tender?
No matter where we get it at, it is always tender and has a unique texture.
Anyone know the reason behind this, or better yet worked in such a place to know the secret?|||Along with the other two answers, the meat is sliced thin, across the grain, and cooked quickly.|||perhaps it is not beef. ; )|||I'm not sure about marinating it in lime soda , but yes..they marinate it for a long time in some sort of marinade sauce which breaks down the muscle in it and makes it tender...|||Most restaurants prefer to
Quickly use fresh meat - not ---marinating-waiting for an order-let me waste a few minutes using/cleaning etc a mallet on the meat.
1) cut the meat AGAINST the grain
2) Lightly coat with corn starch
3) cook quickly in stainless steel pot/pan that has heated (very hot) peanut oil in it.
4) throw prepped veggies and condiments in.
5) Stir around to coat food with flavor
6) Serve asap nice 'n' hot! =)|||This reminds me of an experience I had one time while eating a beef dish at a Chinese restaurant. The cook came out and talked to me. He said something like, "Many people ask me how I get the beef so tender. I tell them special Chinese cow. But no, just kidding, it's marinated."|||Cats.
Bwwhhhahahaha.|||Perhaps it is tenderized with a meat mallet.|||They marinate it in in lime Soda! like seven up, or sprite. the other day I was watching food network, and they were making this dish called bibimbop, and bulgogi, and the woman said that asian chefs (her family as well) marinate meat in lime sodas, and therefore tenderizing the meat. I thought this was different, but pretty neat. Check out this link, http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/鈥?/a> They have the recipe online. It shows the marinade. Good luck. Hope this helps|||the marinade for the beef contains baking soda, which chemically breaks down the proteins and gives the meat a tender texture|||It is tenderized, i.e. beaten with a mallet with many points. It breaks down the texture of the meat and makes it very tender. Even the cheapest cuts of meat can be tenderized in the manner! It is usually marinated as well, this help to break it down as well!|||they marinated the meat with tenderizer
Where can i find a chinese restaurant in Los Angeles where they actually serve their take out in those little boxes with the metal handle? i've been to many chinese restaurants but they never serve the left over's in those boxes...|||PF Chang's gives you leftovers in those white boxes. If you want some great chinese food in those boxes get Paul's Kitchen @ 1012 S San Pedro St. in downtown LA. 213-749-5004. It's the Dodger' s Tommy Lasorda's favorite too.|||there is a place on western and van ness also panda express sells food in those boxes|||go to Chinatown, near downtown LA, there are many great Chinese food places. Stay out of the valley, there's nothing worthwhile there!|||Is it the food you want or the boxes? If you want good chinese food, go to Panda Inn (not express, yes they are the same company, but the food is way different- try the honey walnut shrimp, it is to die for) or for fast food chinese food, go to pick up stix. Way better than panda express.
If you just want the cute boxes, I've gotten them at Smart & Final in the past. :)|||I would google Pick up stix,,,I think the food is good there and thats how they serve it in those containers.
