Just been to the chinese to pick up tea.
It took me 20 minutes to decide on chinese.
It took me the drive to not decide what I want.
Then when I got here I panic ordered because I was next in the queue.
I've never had this dish before.
And I won't do a single thing about it if I don't like it.
In short, I'm a shithouse.
Do you research a menu before you go out? Do you always have the same dish(es)? Are you a maverick and you try new things? If you try something new what do you do if you don't like it?
Also, what's your go to chinese so I can steal your order for next time?
Peace and love 🫶🏽 |

I ordered Chopstix the other day. I've had it from two different locations to the one it came from a enjoyed it every time.
This time it tastes awful; like they hadn't changed the oil in months, and the noodles were bone dry.
I usually get the same things when I order from a local independent restaurant. |

"What did you order tho???"
Kung Pao Beef - The first thing I saw that had one of those spice chillies next to it.
With a side of egg fried rice and a side of chips because she asked which one and I just said yes 😂 |

Oh Nanna, I feel you on this. I've had great chopstix before. Had it at Warwick services (if I remember rightly) this week and it was not a patch 😔 |

Always the same in a chinese. Not worth the risk being adventurous 😂😂😂
That and pizza is pretty much the only takeaways we get. Don’t like Indian food and not much else around our area.
I always research menus and tend to order the same thing all the time.  |

My go to order is beef in black bean sauce with crispy noodles and salt and chilli chicken had it every Saturday for as long as I can remember,. If I have to go to another Chinese I do look at the menu and make sure I know what I’m getting before I go, I always get something completely different when I go to different Chinese as know it won’t be as good ha |

"Hong yu spicy mandarin stuff is my go to from my usual Chinese place.
I'll quote often just go for the weirdest thing on the menu if it's somewhere I don't know though 💜"
What's the weirdest thing you've ever had? Have you ever not liked something new and what did you do? I am in awe of your courage 🧡 |

I can go with an idea of what I'm ordering then the odd occasion I get there look at the menu change my mind then get home realising I've ordered enough for a meal the next day.
If it's something I haven't had before I'll finish it an my not order it again.
Hot and Sour Soup or variation with sliced beef
Simple chow mein or fried rice - if they get those wrong don't go back.
Schezuan chicken/beef/prawns
Yellow bean sauce with chicken/beef
Steamed rice
Spring rolls |

I always get the same few things from takeaways as if I am spending that much on so many calories, I want to know I will like it!
Chinese is chicken foo yung or sweet and sour pork with fried rice. |

I always check the menu before I go anywhere. If it's a place I go to regularly, I tend to stick to the same dish. I do like trying out new things, if I don't like it just gotta take L and move on |

Too many things to individually reply to so talk amongst yourselves now 😂 but thanks for the comments!
If you named something, I will be having it at some point in the future. If you try new stuff you are the person I wish I was. And if you stick to staple favourites you've shown me what I need to do in the future 🫶🏽
NB. Kung Pao Beef - 8 out of 10. Sweet, slow burn of spice, will be finished. |
