Are you talking about Americanized Chinese food, which can be delicious in its own way, or actual Chinese food?

Can't go wrong with char siu or lo mein.

I like to judge a place by its fried rice. If it's isn't firm and/or you get some overcooked rice, stop ordering from there.
>>
>>8206750
He's 'never tried this shit' so obviously it's a dumb flyover american ordering takeout.
>>
>>8206750
I don't know. I'm telling you I've never tried this food. But probably Americanized because it's our local Chinese restaurant in my small town.

pic related is pretty tasty. If it's your first time, anything that you would find on a Panda Express menu would suffice. If you want to get godly try steamed dumplings. Pork is one of the tastiest fillings but shrimp is good as well.

>>8206757
English please. Everything in menu is in English.

>>8206758
You are right. Any suggestions?

>>8206774
Are you able to post the menu?

Definitely can't go wrong there.
>>
>>8206807
I dunno can't find it on my menu. Keep in mind that it's a small town restaurant. Any other suggestions? I posted the menu.
>>
>>8206819
It's pork.

There's no pork section?
>>
>>8206788
>>8206797
>>8206800
Thanks, man.

Here's my suggestions:
chicken, pork, and shrimp fried rice are amazing. Any chow mein is delicious.
orange chicken, crispy chicken in chili sauce,
chicken or beef satay (kabobs), beef chop suey, beef w/ cashew nuts & veg,

Avoid crispy noodles, they're disappointing.

Good for you to expand your food borders. Hopefully you find something you enjoy.

Listen to this man OP. Also if you like cream cheese get some crab rangoons. Egg rolls are a must of you haven't. The entrees are up to you.

I would get the Beef with ginger & spring onion, some hot and sour soup (really weird taste for some people I love the shit), and one of the pad thais. Thats just me tho.

If your place has them scallion pancakes are godly. Make sure to get an order of those
>>
I like black bean sauce dishes. Shrimp especially. If they can do it spicy, all the better.
>>
Just get beef with broccoli on white rice, as for more sauce. As a chink I can't eat any other rice other than white (with the exception of actual legit fried rice in authentic Chinese restaurants).
>>
The only Chinese place I eat at is called Panda Express. I like their orange chicken the most. Other dishes taste okay but somewhat taste bland.
>>
>>8207476
Don't do this OP, it's a trick and this poster is a sneaky chink looking for laughs at the white man's expense. I tried this shit IN China at an expensive restaurant and had to struggle not to projectile vomit. The bread itself is okay but that black vinegar is some nasty shit.
>>
>>8206720

Order something with tentacles in it. Tentacles are always good.
>>
>>8207514
Panda express is fucking awful m8

>>8207734

shit taste confirmed

I didn't even know Chinese food could be disappointing until I tried Panda Express.

>>8206768
the wrappers looks like shit senpai. Real ones aren't shinny.
>>
>>8206788
Chinese pork fried rice is so fucking delicious
>>8206797
chicken with cashew nuts and vegetables is divine
>>8206800
beef with cashew and vegetable
>>
it doesn't matter, nothing on that menu is anything close to actual Chinese food.

"Hong Kong style" roast pork, lol. There are several Hong Kong roasted pork dishes, and it would surprise me if that restaurant served any of them.

OP it's a watered-down unauthentic menu designed specifically for laowai who know jack shit about Chinese food like you. Pick whatever looks good based on your personal tastes and go with it. The most exotic thing on that menu is black bean sauce.

nasty octopus garbage
>>
>>8208368
That's baby corn.
>>
>>8208368
not even octopus, but even if it were, octopus tastes pretty good if it's fresh and not overcooked.

why are flyovers such embarrassments and why do they have no shame in their lack of cultural education or experience in worldly matters?
>>
>>8208375

i live in washington state and i know it's baby corn but I GOT TWO YOUS IN FOUR MINUTES ON CK MOTHERFUCKER

>>8206840
Char Sui is porbly the 'roast pork'.

But that's a shitty anglicised menu
>>
>>8208427
it could be, but roast pork translated directly into Cantonese would mean roasted pork belly with that thick ass cracklin skin
>>
Not if you are in America or Europe, it's all loaded with sodium and terrible for you.
>>
>>8207734
That's not black vinegar it's soy sauce and ginger, at least in American Chinese restaurants. You're right that black vinegar is nasty, when I go to Chinatown and get soup dumplings I don't dip them in that shit.
