I really wish fuck-wits would stop using this term, it sounds really naff, like "look at me, I can use this complex word".
You look like a try-hard when you use this word.

everyone knows the best chinese food is made by illegal mexicans in the kitchens

i went to an upscale restaurant in beijing and it wasn't that good

>>10672096
>It is literally impossible to beat chinese food. All cower in shame
Impressive.

With this most recent achievement, fate has, in a single stroke, marked the decline of the west and spelled a new era of wondrous prosperity and peaceful global dominance for the Chinese dragon, which promises to firmly stand in sharp contrast to the historically bloody ascent of western powers and the cruel subjugation it brought to the humbler nations of the world. The blessings of Chinese plasma stealth technology, undetectable hypersonic combat vehicles, quantum direct-current electricity, neutrino submarine detectors, gamma titanium mono crystal turbines, quantum aircraft carriers, unmanned autonomous A.I. tanks, near-space ballistic air-to-air missiles, +2km range airburst rifles, and quantum enhanced railguns will be the instruments with which China affirms its noble stewardship of 21st century world politics and offers the non-western world a different option; an humanist alternative to the depredations of Western leadership and the opportunity for a more equitable and dignified multilateralism.

give me 2 reasons why chinese is better than thai

>>10672103
the only tryhard is you

>>10672172
eastern soy is tested and proven, western soy on the other hand is corrupted beyond repair and WILL destroy your hairline, give you rockin' tits, and fat thighs

>some stir fry with noodles and sauce

well ok guess I'm a pro at it

>>10672096
Far too many carbs and sodium.

>>10672096
Japanese food is everything Chinese food is but better

Chinese is good, but Cajun beats it in almost every way.

>>10672414
>mutts believe this
wew this is next level

>>10672096
Thai food is far superior, for the same amount of money.

>>10672232
the soup dosent taste like sweaty socks and chinese is cheaper and far more accesible

chinese food is disgusting. both authentic and takeout

>>10672459
no. It's mayocide, and it couldn't have come any sooner.

chinese food feels no pain

>>10672641
No one gets "called out" on an anonymous board, dipshit. For example, you can be a cunt just as you have in the post I quoted, then be perfectly reasonable and on topic in your next post, and no one would know. You didn't actually do anything except exhibit some of the "tryhard" qualities your previous post condemns. Literally.

Is there more to it? It feels like I could cook 99% of all Chinese restaurant dishes with just these ingredients.

>>10672754
>Is there more to it?
Yep. You're completely missing the fermented products except for black bean sauce. Learn about Doubanjiang, tienmenjiang, etc. Those are what shitty Chinese restaurants sub MSG for.

Also learn about chinese stocks which are very different from the Western/French types. And then there's the seafood components: dried shrimp and shrimp paste. Dried scallops. Dried abalone if you have money.

Also: light & dark soy sauces are far less important than most of us tend to think for Chinese cooking.

Oh, and cornstarch slurry for finshing!

This. You can't even make a lot of chink shit w/o these fermented products.

>>10672988
we're talking about cuisines though, not food cultures where you eat straight up ingredients

>>10673316
I know this is poor bait and I shouldn't actually be replying, but "you're" isn't the correct usage, because "enjoy you are fat and carb overload" isn't correct. Neither is "yore" because that isn't even a possessive.

>>10672966
i needs it brotendos

>>10672096
1000% agree! !
my mom says i shoulda been born yellow cuz i eat so much chinese food and love it so much X D

>>10672935
how do you make stir fry brown sauce? I just want to make some dishes that taste like they do in the restaurant but all my attempts don't taste the same.

>>10672414
I might as well eat plain water and rice with raw fish.

Street shitters make the objectively best fast food. Prove me wrong, dog eaters.

How do I make takeout noodles at home? There's something in it that makes it taste very good
They're always the same at every place though

>>10676155

Nah maybe you just perceive it wrong. You got memed son. Literally is literally a word in the English language so there is literally no problem with using it.

>>10676190
time to let go bruh

Could I lose weight by eating a special fried rice once a day and nothing else?

>>10672096
Good Chinese food is good, but there is way too much bad Chinese out there.

For me? I order the Almond Boneless Chicken every time. It's good fried chickun. I tried to get this chickun when I left Michigan, but no place had it, I guess it's sort of a regional thing

>>10672096
Chinese food tastes good even cold. Anyone else eat the leftovers right out of the fridge?

>>10672437
This looks delicious. I need to stop going on /ck/ when it's too late at night to cook.

Was about to post this, poo in loo food is a lot better imo

I just had the best maxipad thai last weekend that I've ever had in my life.

It was peanut infested, went to flavour country like a redneck, and was moist and delicious.

MOIST, dangerously moist compared to most brakepad thai.

>>10672966

Based, 8 bucks for this. Had leftover for breakfast next day

>>10672096
>panda express chow mein
it's always so bland and dry the fuck do you mean

>>10680197
I work there and make all the food every day. I do not understand how people want to buy this shit. We're a very busy location and get a lot of repeat customers that come in almost every day.

>>10680242
It's alot of constant food going out so always fresh no? What are things I should and shouldn't know about panda if I go often?

>>10680255
>should know
Its fucking garbage
>shouldnt know
Taco bell has higher health standards.

>>10680255
Slow hours vary on location but typically the hours between lunch and dinner rushes and before we close the food is always shit.
If you think you've been skimped on portions just ask for more and typically we will just give you more to make the customer happy. Also, you can usually request items to be made fresh even if we have it stocked. If they refuse then they're just rude employees.
You don't want to know what's in the sauces but I'm sure you could find out with some google searches or some common sense.
Don't donate to their charity fund

>>10680275
I fucking hate how cashier spams the shit out of the bell and the poor overworked employees mutter out "t-thank you". Do you never eat the food? I like the broccoli beef and string bean chicken

>>10680282
FUCK I hate that bell dude. We keep getting pressured by management to meet quotas for the donations, but nobody gives a fuck.

We used to bring our own food from home and use the equipment at work to cook but upper management would go ape shit because we're wasting their money via gas, electric etc even though we aren't clocked in. We were bitched at for even using the fryer which is on all fucking day anyways.

Broccoli quality a few months ago was terrible and there were a shit ton of green bugs in it so we had a lot of extra washing procedures put in place to alleviate the problem. On your end you're fine if the locations actually followed the procedures, but I can't tell you if they did or didn't. The beans in the winter are typically good and the beans in the summer are usually shit which is strange since that's opposite of their peak season.

I usually don't eat the food. If I do, I only eat vegetables and brown rice. You will gain weight. It's free though, so that's a plus I guess.

>>10680305
Thanks for the info anon, btw I fill out the surveys and get the free side. I go too often it's right next to work

>>10680331
The scores you put on that don't have any effect on the employees unless you put their name in the comments. The number you put only increases the in house scoring system that ranks locations in the area. Basically it only affects the managers and how they have to deal with upper management.

If you actually like the service you're given at the location you go to, put someone's name in there.

Also with those surveys, if you get a premium entree, make sure you make that the free entree. For example, if you want broccoli and string bean like you say you get, and you also want the new steak and shrimp, get the steak and shrimp as the third item. The premium price and the cost of the third item is removed. If its not,m the cashier did it wrong.
