I used to be a real Kung Pao Chicken fan, and would get that all the time. I still like it, but my favorite now is Chicken with Cashew Nuts. I like sweet cashew nuts, which contrast with the salty chicken and vegetables. I just had some a few minutes ago. I was starving too. I ate more of it than usual...still some for tomorrow though. What Chinese food do you like?

I usually get the hot and sour soup..a small.
The absolute best hot and sour soup I ever had tasted was in Fitchburg, MA at a place called Jade.
No other Chinese place makes it the same that I have tried
Then as a rule, I will order crab cheese won tons.
And if I am very hungry some Sesame Chicken.
Will they deliver to you out there where you live Snowy?

No, but there a couple of places not too far away. I like hot and sour soup too, if I am having a complete meal I will get it. It is my fave soup. I never had crab cheese won tons.

@snowy22315 They are pretty good depending on which restaurant does them.

@snowy22315 My Dad raised angus beef when I was younger, so it was always a staple in my diet, and the same with my hubby's diet growing up.

I really like Kung Pao Chicken and Cashew Chicken and a bunch of others but Pepper Steak is my favorite. I also always get pork or chicken fried rice.

I haven't actually tried Pepper Steak. Orange Beef was good though. I have had that before, as well as Chow Mein. I also like Egg Foo Yung in any variety.

@freelancermariagrace I will take your word for it. I don't know if I am interested in trying it or not.

You can make Orange Chicken pretty easily at home. There are lots of recipes for it. Some only take like 3 ingredients.

@snowy22315 Since most of the offerings are chicken-based, I needed to find one that wasn't.

That's tasty, but I usually like something with a sauce.

It depends on the restaurant. I like chowmein from Woldrof in Kolkata and the Chinese restaurant in place called Sambalpur in Odisha.

I order the same dishes no matter where I go..most of the time, although there is a restaurant to the South of here, I have only had Chinese food from there a few times. I really, really did not like their Egg Foo Yung. I would never get it from there again.

My favorites are orange chicken and General Tso's Chicken (mild though). I also love teriyaki chicken; but I don't like the way our local Chinese restaurant makes it. Hope you have a great day.

I like to go to a Chinese Buffet and then I will have many different chicken dishes and seafood as well. None are really my favorite. I do like the cashew chicken.

I like Chinese buffets too. The last one we went to though was not very good, but I think it was the first time we went. I don't know what happened.

Both Kung Pao chicken and chicken with cashew nuts are delicious.

Yes, good stuff. Around here though, the Kung Pao chicken is never spicy though. I like the spice.
