Ordering Foo Yung

77 replies

Ordering a Chinese with friends. And they thought it was hilarious that I ordered Foo yung. Am I missing something, what's wrong with that?!! (I don't eat Chinese often)

Why don't you ask them? Why start a thread when no one else will have any idea why?

CeleriacOfTheNight · 05/03/2022 19:49

Do they not get out much?

Muchtoomuchtodo · 05/03/2022 19:49

I love a foo yung. Special or mushroom are my favourites!

SweetPotatoDumpling · 05/03/2022 19:50

Nothing AT ALL wrong with that...your friends are twats! Foo Yung is my favourite 👍 Tell them to fuck right off!

Someone once told me chicken Foo yung is a mother and child reunion and I can't eat it ever since!

Well we did go for an Indian a few weeks ago and I had steak and chips instead of curry.

I always get this but have to get a carton of curry with it.

Ah you jumped the shark there, too try hard.
RebeccaCloud9 · 05/03/2022 19:55

Now THAT I'd laugh at! But not the Foo Yung.

rattlemehearties · 05/03/2022 19:55

Oh right, the drip feed that you just eat English food. Probably funny to them.

Toddlerteaplease · 05/03/2022 19:58

I do like Chinese but also really like foo yung!

Don't like curry or spicy food

Your username is perfect then, and your friends are probably laughing at your tendency to eat like a child then.

What is foo ting?

ITSupport · 05/03/2022 20:14

Foo yung

AWavyLine · 05/03/2022 20:16

What’s wrong with foo yung? It’s quite Anglo-Chinese but so is everything else on the menu.

DelilahBucket · 05/03/2022 20:20

What's wrong with your friends?! I love a special foo yung with chips and curry sauce.

tempester28 · 05/03/2022 20:20

its an omelette

FlasherMcGruff · 05/03/2022 20:22

They probably think it’s just an English omelette / unadventurous. It’s much nicer than that, with all flavour from the bean sprouts, spring onion, garlic, rice wine etc. Bit weird of them to laugh! Not like you ordered fish fingers from the kid’s menu.

Spaghag · 05/03/2022 20:26

I love foo yung.

I wouldn't laugh at anyone's order though.

PrinceParry · 05/03/2022 20:29

Foo yung is the best. Always with chips and curry sauce. I can't have it every time I have a Chinese but there are times when it's all I'm interested in.

NickyOy · 05/03/2022 20:32

I look be special foo yung. It's great on slimming world as it has loads of protein and veg and not too much oil or calorific sticky sauce. Bit of soy sauce over the top sometimes. Also love other types of Chinese but get this when I'm trying to be a bit healthier

HemanOrSheRa · 05/03/2022 20:37

Mmmmm. I love Foo Yung. Best eaten at a restaurant though, I reckon. It doesn't travel well as a takeaway option, though it's still delicious!
