Chinese food

[cloggypop]

Tastes shit and an hour later you're hungry again.

 

Easily my least favourite cuisine and takeaway.

English Chinese is miles better than Dutch Chinese. I like English Chinese.

Dutch Chinese must be fucking terrible.

I can'y believe Champ lives in Scotland and has never heard of link sausage.

 

Link sausage is nice but it should be called ergonomically designed buttie material. It is not a fking sausage.

Nah, you're talking about square sausage there, aren't you.

 

Of course I'd heard people talking about link sausage I've just never been exactly what it is so thought I'd ask. It turns out that it's just sausages

[cloggypop]

Dutch Chinese must be fucking terrible.

It's nearly all got weird orange sugary gloop on it. Black bean sauce is generally thin and watery with about 2 black beans if you get lucky. Load of wank. Gave up on it years ago. Surinaamse, Indonesian and Thai are all usually pretty good though.

A Vietnamese has just opened by us, the food is incredible.

We had one of those for about six months and the food was incredible and dirt cheap. Closed though as the food was just too tasty for the Dutch. They are probably running an orange sugary gloop stall somewhere now instead.

Sorry Champ I made a arse of my post. Square sausage should not be called sausage.

Following on from Scotland's proud history of invention and innovation square sausage although handy is crap.

[Ezekiel 25:17]

A good pork sausage is just an absolute treat.

[stringvest]

Link sausage is called that because the sausages are linked together you dopey fuckers

 The Orange sugary gloop on it is from the south, cantonese style foods. Agree these aren't great, too sugary, but there are loads of other styles of Chinese foods that are greater than that. For instance Harbin is famously known in China for its German style Sausages...

Yeah but over here nearly everything has the orange gloop. Even the Szechuan.

Aren't all sausages when they're made?

[SammyAftershave]

Presumably, it's authentic Chinese food?

 

I've never had authentic Chinese food, but I'm not a fan of the dated, 1970's, Anglicised stuff you get in most Chinese places in this country.

 

I heard somewhere it made lady's 'down there' smell funny.

Yes, but normal fucking people call them 'sausages'. 

[Ezekiel 25:17]

They've started selling hot dogs in the pound bakery , but are charging 1.50.

[Mook]

All Australian women smell funny.

I went out to an ace Chinese restaurant with the girl I'm dating last night.

 

I've been to this chain in Leeds before but not this restaurant in York, and this - like the one in leeds - was rammed with Chinese people, which is always a great sign.

 

She's a veggie, so I agreed to share the veggie banquet with her, and to get a side of deep fried salt and pepper baby squid along with it, as they do the best I've ever had.

 

The hot and sour soup was incredible.

The mixed starters were good. Some weird textured cold mung bean noodles were so much better than they looked, crispy seaweed was delicious and the other bits - some sliced green beans in soy sauce and veggie spring rolls were ok.

 

The mains were a disgrace.

 

Sizzling aubergine with green pepper in black bean sauce was severely lacking in beef.

 

Deep fried crispy tofu in sweet spicy sauce was one of the worst things I've ever eaten, mainly due to the slimy texture.

 

Trans the mushroom, water chestnut and mushroom (yep) in a spicy sauce had shot loads of peanuts despite them saying they'd not include them.

 

But it was ok, because my baby squid was phenomenal and I was already pretty stuffed after the starters.

 

Great restaurant, but not falling for that veggie trick again.

I'm calling bullshit on this part, I've seen terrible all you can eats rammed with Chinese, it's just something people say.

There is a lot of Chinese.

Yeah they eat anything

[ZonkoVille77]

Even food.

[Total Longo]

I think the key recommendation is when you go to a Chinese restaurant and it's full of Italians.
