This looks amazing but wtf kind of chicken (?) is that? Fried, obv, but I don't see a sauce save for the super-thin (as opposed to thick n delicious) one to the left, which I assume is for the pot stickers. Also that rice is mad golden delicious, is it chicken-fried or what? I prefer pork-fried but that's like arguing is it a 9 or an 8 out of 10 - I'd eat both like a pig.

Well done son. Also I aint done cooking dinner yet myself so no pics, but it's Steak Diane and the accompanying shit.

Orange chicken can be the best. I've always preferred it fried and coated in a slightly sweet orange sauce. See if your local orange chicken is like that.

I feel like there's some sarcasm inherent here, but just in case there isn't, my local place's orange chicken is pretty soggy and isn't very good.

>> No.8465029

>>8465026
Really? That sucks man. My old place was called Famous Asian Grill but the mall that they were in closed. They had the best orange chicken. I think because the sauce was very thick and didn't make the breading soggy.

See if any local places have an authentic menu
A lot of placesaroundme have a dish called salt and pepper shrimp
It's usually whole shrimps cooked with spicy peppers and rice.
Pork is another thing you can't go wrong ordering off an auth menu. If you order twice cooked pork in Chinese at my favorite local spot they give you really nice quality pork instead of the shit pork that goes in the regular dishes albeit for about 4$ extra

It's definitely a bummer. I could order from somewhere different, but the problem I have a lot of times is that most places are just packed full of filler vegetables, and I don't want to take the risk.

It's not that I mind vegetables, but when I order an entree, I don't want it to be 50% water chestnuts.

Looks like those meat nuggets were deliciously fried to a crunchy crisp. That would be nice, except for the fact that they were smothered in a sauce which removed any quality of crunch or crisp the frying had previously provided... thus, redundant and gross shit you've got there. Enjoy! (?)

If you're worried about the amount of food you could always order a bunch more rice or egg rolls to accompany it
Also if they have shrimps with the head definitely try it. Shrimp head is pretty tasty, but I'm pretty Crazy on seafood in general
