thread of pictures of real chinese food

Scott if you go back to Philly you should check out Handy Nasty, they're pretty user friendly

That looks like a pretty standard Canto-style place, which is fine, but you need to be invigorated by some other styles of Chinese cuisine!! xp

This is probably the best thing I have ever read

I'm in downtown Oakland aka Oakland chinatown, I'm a gonna eat so much real-ish chinese food. Started last night with fresh rice rolls with duck. I had never had this kind of rice roll before--very very thin, crepe-like thing rolled up over itself several times with a bit of chopped roasted duck. The sauce reminded me of fish sauce, but I'd have to try it again after less wine to figure out what was going on there.

The wontons in the wonton soup were delicious, but I wasn't crazy about the broth. Just kinda meh chicken broth. Very likely real chinese chicken powder broth!

guys that Munchies article from two posts ago is seriously great

opposite of thread title but I thought dayo would like this article
http://www.eater.com/a/panda-express-one-day

panda apparently recruits experienced cooks from china?

Have to admit I like the walnut shrimp (I'm easy).

The article got the geography wrong, Glendale is west of Rosemead, not east.

The piece is strangely hagiographic and "talking points"-laden, as if Panda Express corporate was behind it. ("Look how clean and fresh everything is, so come on back to real Chinese food value, America!")

On another level, fuck it. McDonalds is dead on its feet and everyone in fast food is either running scared or trying to reinvent themselves as a startup that happens to make "healthy fresh experiences." This Panda Express happens to look like a decent place to grab a fast food lunch and it will probably kill you less quickly than McDonalds which is now proven to cause ass cancer according to the World Health Organization. Chicken and broccoli never caused any ass cancer, neither did steamed rice.

Yeah, forgot to mention that it sounds like a paid ad. I actually wouldn't eat there by choice, but sometimes we get catered stuff at work from there, and I rarely pass up free food.

panda express not behind in the game, they had that seasonal orange chicken w/bacon

Yesterday I overheard my spouse telling his friend, "I mean, don't get me wrong, I love good, real Chinese food. But every week or so [of our two and a half months in China], I'd have to eat something not Chinese. Like Mexican. Or pizza. But not [quincie]. She ate Chinese every day, like, five times a day. She could not get enough Chinese food."

And now I really can't get enough Chinese food :(

aw! :)

I never thought I'd say I Miss Suburban Maryland, but I frequented at least half a dozen places for real Chinese food when I worked there.

I have tried but can't get real Chinese food to happen at home. Ingredients aren't the problem, I don't think. . . but it just doesn't taste like delicious restaurant Chinese food.

need some hundred year master stock

And MSG.

Been hooning back a lot of 开胃金针菇 & 热干面 as the weather's gotten colder. Also, so many diff names for 拍青瓜!

Sadly my decision to stick w/ostensible vegetarianism has cut off a bunch of delicious options from me ... OTOH, coming from NZ places where there's generally an effort made for halal options (+ gluten-free etc) the DNGAF attitude of institutional meals is kinda intense; I can see why I'm one of the few 老外 at the canteen here.

I miss having a kitchen/cooking (mainly curries & bean-based things, though I can always go to 小北, I guess) - been trying to make notes of dishes to try and recreate back home but it's a bit haphazard. Need to pick up some local cookbooks for reading practise / inspiration - any recs, dayo?

really need to find some real chinese food in my neighborhood. maybe by figuring out where local chinese ppl go and order off-menu? not aware of any place that has on-menu stuff

prime exception is the place in a college town about 45 minutes away. love going there and ordering about anything, and watching people picking mixed seafood out of hot pots

oh duh! there's a place near me that does dim sum on sundays. that stuff is pretty legit, but it's obviously not larger items. good time to eat some bun and chicken feet though

last time i was at the bookstore in beijing, they had like 3 aisles of cookbooks, and 2 sections devoted just to congee

tbh most home cooked chinese food doesn't taste like restaurant chinese food, which is more oily/flavor forward
