Recommendations for new dishes from the Chinese please

[BarbaraVineFan]

I am getting a Chinese tonight and fancy trying something different. I usually get chicken or pork in yellow bean sauce, Kung pao pork, sometimes king prawn Foo Yung. I don't really like sweet and sour but other than that I like pretty much anything - enjoy spicy food and seafood too.

Based on the above info, could anyone recommend something else I could try for a change please?

I love crispy duck pancakes!
I also love hoisin flavour if you've
Not tried that, give it a
Go

Ooh yes I love those! But I get a bit annoyed when I get them from the takeaway, it always seems cold :(

Salt and pepper chicken

Crispy Szechuan beef (with rice or noodles as a side)

Different texture from what you describe and a bit spicy. Love these.

Mmm, good shout with the crispy textures, thank you! Any other suggestions welcome!

Salt and pepper chicken!!

Ours does salt and pepper tofu which I love. It's like tofu crispy nuggets , no sauce and the salt and pepper seasoning, loads of peppers onions and chillis, I get a tub of curry sauce to dip.

Chicken chow mein also good.

Crispy chilli beef

Salt and chili squid is my absolute favourite

Chicken and cashews are my favourite

Coming here to say just this. We moved away from an amazing takeaway and I still think about that squid.

OP, get salt & pepper squid. And some crispy chilli beef.

Also spare ribs. Nom.

Thanks all! I have gone for salt and pepper king prawns (will try squid next time!) and roast pork in sea spicy sauce, with egg fried rice and some satay sauce on the side :) i didn't want two different crispy things, but will definitely try the crispy chili beef next time!

Chicken and cashew nuts was my favourite until one night the chicken tasted very wierd 🫤
went for beef with green peppers in black bean sauce next for a change, it’s now my new favourite, and very spicy, I have to pick the chillies out because I’m a big wuss😁

Duck in black bean sauce

Also crispy chilli beef and salt and pepper prawns

I'm having crispy peking beef from the Chinese tonight, I would recommend

Beef with mushrooms, sooooo good

Crispy shredded beef. It's pretty spicy.

Our family order to share is

Duck & pancakes
Chicken satay
King prawn balls with S&S sauce
Salt and Pepper Chicken
Beef in black bean
Egg fried rice
King Prawn chow mein

Beef in black pepper sauce is a new favourite here.

Beef in OK sauce.

Red braised pork belly.

Special chow mein. Crispy beef. Battered orange or lemon chicken. Chicken satay. Special fried rice with curry sauce.

I really want one now!

Everyone in my house always says I order the worst things on the menu so I'm not sure how much help it is but I really like chicken with cashews in yellow bean sauce, pineapple chicken, our local does a lovely chicken in ginger and spring onion sauce. Side of chicken balls (as in deep fried chicken nuggets) with a plum sauce and a curry sauce for dipping (love mixing them together) if I've gone for a veggie main.

I don't like sweet and sour but do like salt and sweet so I find the sweet sauces with an egg fried rice or a curry sauce are lovely mixed together.

Also always order crispy seaweed, mini spring rolls.

Also like duck pancakes, salt and chilli anything (our local does salt and chilli chips which are lovely).

Obviously don't order all of that every time, hopefully goes without saying.

Singapore noodles/rice
