What's your go-to Chinese food order?
- Thread starter The Tradition
- Start date
-Xiao Long Bao, I love it enough my wife and I have made it from scratch several times now
-Deep fried chicken kneecaps with garlic and chili (seriously, I tried it the first time in San Fran at R & G Lounge a traditional Cantonese place and I’ve gotten the fried cartilage every place I’ve seen it offered since mainly in Korean, Thai and authentic Chinese places but also some Japanese izakayas).
-Drunken pigeon in jar
-Abalone Rice Porridge which is technically a Korean dish but you can get it in a lot of West Coast Cantonese places.

No love for egg foo young? Might be my goat.
Hunan, Szechaun, Mongolian Beef...wtf is the difference? Think I like Mong the best.
Combo lo mein and egg rolls, maybe some rangoons. Mixed egg drop/ wonton soup.
Orange, sesame, or bourbon chicken. Damn, now Im hungry. But one thing I noticed in the last few yrs, its becoming impsossible to find an even halfway decent buffet. I like to hit one up once or twice a yr and have been grossed out the last 5 or 6 times and turn around. But the local take out is pretty awesome.
