  • yes, there are stereotypical "chop suey" which "chicken balls" restaurants in Canada and the US, but if you know where to go, or if you know how to cook, the authentic stuff is easy to find in any large city with a Chinese population. While I was raised eating genuine Cantonese, Hunan, and Szechuan, every so often, I get the craving for tacky North American style Chinese food.

  • More Chinese restaurants here in the USA than the big fast food chains? Wow, I had no idea. General Chou's Chicken is my favoite Chinese dish.

  • @fiji9000 It depends on the restaurant and where you live. You can always ask them to prepare you something real and they might but beware the staff not being honest with you.

  • Is there any traditional Chinese food served at ones local Chinese restaurant?

  • At the time, a good friend introduced me to General Tso back in '04. I forget the month but it's the best chicken I've ever tasted.

  • i love general tso chicken its the best dish i have ever ate !!!! i don't consider whether the food taste better because its Chinese or American im just fuckin hungry, you know what i'm sayin?

  • American Chinese food, means it fit most American taste bud, we also have this dishes, but not as common as for American, we have all kind.

    You know Chinese eat anything almost
