When’s the last time you had fried chicken?

I seriously don't know. I don't count Chicken Strips or CFA Sandwiches. Not sure the last time I ate Southern Fried Chicken Pieces. That is a rare thing for me.

I always hear the name but I’ve never had General Tso. Is it a chain restaurant ?

Same for me. I probably eat it like 5-6 times out of the year

IT is orange chicken with a different sauce.

 

[HNL HI]

sadly, chinese food gone

I would say soulfood since it's not readily available in my area, the times Ive had it it was good tho.

I think he was actually a Chinese General. But there’s a Chinese dish named after him.

Who Was General Tso And Why Are We Eating His Chicken?

This very real general had absolutely nothing to do with the battered and sauced chicken that now bears his name.

The only bad thing about Chinese food is most spots unless it’s a staple in the neighborhood or somewhat famous always seem to change owners often
But even those spots once they start to get big will change owners
One day the Chinese spot is called chopstick express
Next week it’s called fried rice best #1 lol

Ya'll haven't even scratched the surface on the depths of Chinese food. I'd have to Nino Brown Italian food.

rooster Always talking about Popeyes finally got to me. I've had random cravings over the last 2-3 months and today was finally the day.

Local special

6 Strips
2 sides ( Fries + I subbed one out for another biscuit)
2 biscuits

So yea, thanks rooster . That hit the spot.

 

[akajae]

I see...

Random but I don't think I've ever ordered chicken strips or chicken tenders from anywhere.

I just found out last night that Carls Jr. chicken nuggets are shaped like stars

And I'm uncultured......

FOH

 

[calibeebee]

Grine what’s the difference between the vitamix blender vs the ninja blender? Besides about $300 price difference? Are either of them a must-buy if all I’m doing is making frozen fruit smoothies?

 

[tay1]

This you speaking? You?

Hold up now.....

Is curry curry everywhere.

Like how different is African curry, from Indian curry or Jamaican curry?

Dis tight right here.

Would I be a heathen if I ate curry straight out the bucket.

It came separate from the rice but I honestly dont even need the rice.

The Vitamix basically cut and purée anything. They’re like the V-12 as it relates to motors. Also, their reliability is second to known.

I think I read, you don’t even have to sharpen the blades.

One of my friends opt-out for the Ninja - they ended up returning it and got the Vitamix.

If you’re just making smoothies 2-3 times a week only, then get the ninja. If you’re going to use it to cook also, go with the Vitamix.

SPanish as in Spain?

 

[heelsandeers]

Chinese respectfully. not a lot of authentic Chinese food around and the least familiar to me in terms of cooking

I enjoy it when I have it but it's not often. Mexican and Italian are every week and Soul food probably 2-3x a month

 

[B Sox]

Chinese food getting cut EASY.
