I have always been a bland chicken and broccoli guy. Switched recently to hot and spicy shrimp from China 1 in Louisville and love it. What's your favorite?

Greasy *** sweet and sour chicken. Pork fried rice. Pork wontons and crab rangoon (to share).
Wontons/Potstickers
Fried Rice
Egg Roll
Kung Pao extra spicy
Sweet & Sour chicken w/ cheese.
'Split' all wife wife and enjoy for 2 days, and then not eat Chinese again the rest of the year.
^ maybe once every other year.
Just hard to pick Chinese when Thai/Vietnamese is available just as close. No contest.

Anything Thai is better than Chinese.
General Tso's Chicken with brown rice.
We conveniently live within a five-minute walk from Chinatown Center. Always great Asian eats located nearby.

A box loaded with whatever sounds good from Red Bang Bang for $4 or $5. UK students have no clue how lucky they are to have that place.

Chinese food is the ketchup or cheese on a chicken sandwich of Asian food

If you can't enjoy the rare MSG-fest of sweet-n-sour/sesame/fried rice/wonton etc... without trumpeting how there are better options in the Asian food sector you're crossing the border into

It's $18, ridiculously filling and enough for 2 1/2 meals.

I usually get assorted steamed vegetables and chicken on a stick.
When I throw caution to the wind I get shrimp toast. The place near me fries it and they are like a fruit gusher of grease and shrimp of questionable origin.

You know, real Chinese food.

If you spend $18 for chinese for 1 person, you're a loser. I could get everything you just posted for $8.50. A meal for me and the wife is raely more than $15.If you can't enjoy the rare MSG-fest of sweet-n-sour/sesame/fried rice/wonton etc... without trumpeting how there are better options in the Asian food sector you're crossing the border into

There just isn't a lot of authentic Chinese places in Louisville. There is oriental house, which has good Dim Sum, and a few others, but it's all bastardized takeout/delivery. Used to be a decent place on lower brownsboro.
I may eat Chinese 1-3 times a year.
Shrimp and vegetables.
Chicken and broccoli
Beef and broccoli
Seasame Chicken/General
Hot and sour soup
Dumplings
Crab ragoon
Spring rolls.
Double Dragon off Goss ave Kroger has the best general tsao chicken in the city.
Got in dairy in it. Usually won't see dairy in more authentic Chinese food.
Yeah, it sucks for ya. Fortunately for me there is a lot great Chinese places here. Still not as good as back in SE Asia, but it works. We got a Malaysian place called Hawkers, that serves pretty good Malaysian food.
Yea, I misspelled it.
And my point was its all McDonald Chinese here.
Last two places I had good Chinese were New York and San Fran.
Immatation crab and cream cheese wrapped up and deep fried isn't authentic Chinese?

My granddaughter works at a supermarket two doors away from a Chinese restaurant. People from there (she has seen it) rummage through the dumpster behind the supermarket and take the thrown away veggies, presumably to use in their restaurant. TS
Bon Appetit.
I never cared to know the names of any Chinese dish. Just pile a bunch of **** on a plate (86 the brocc) and have at it.
K8 at Vietnam Kitchen. (Spicy Sate noodle dish)
Pho on occasion. Nothing beats a real Bahn Mi tho.
...our favorite meal in NYC last time was some hole-in-the-wall place in Chinatown, not even sure it had a name -- was off the main drag. Hand Pulled noodles, some dude was pulling/slapping them in the window when we walked by, so we ducked in...good lord. Side of handmade dumplings, of course. :fire:
Definitely can't get that type of stuff around here.
I just ate Korean BBQ yesterday. $14.99 for all you can eat short ribs, garlic pork belly, calamari steak, bulgogi, and tofu soup. I haven't eaten or deuced since 1:30 yesterday. Well worth the money.
