first time my in laws (english) were asked if they wanted half n half they were just like "half of what?" they couldn’t believe it’s a thing 🤣

Lemon chicken
sweet and sour chicken
salt and chilli chicken with a side of sweet and sour sauce
fried rice

I’m very boring, and stick to what I know. If we were "sitting in" a Chinese duck with pancakes is a must

We’ve not had a Chinese for AGES. Not since lockdown and then it must have been at least 3/4 weeks before then. Just tried to search our call log to see when we last rang them but it doesn’t go back that far. Then tried to search my banking app and I’ve not paid for one since Dec 2018 - failed to mention that part to my other half 😉 and yes I’m eager to know the date because it’s such a milestone 😂

My husband and I usually get a main between us and then either two fried rice or a fried rice and a portion of chips.
That's loads between the two of us. Our local Chinese does absolutely massive portions.

Sometimes I get Singapore noodles instead.

Weird, just had our first Chinese tonight in ages! Me and my mini shared BBQ ribs, salt & pepper chicken, char sui foo young, egg fried rice, noodles and S&P chips 🤤 hubby had chippy 😂

I have a nut allergy so don’t normally order things too out there, normally go for chow mein and chicken in black bean sauce...I’ve never had these salt and pepper chips, funnily enough we had one last night and I did look for them on the menu but they only do normal chips at mine ☹ Are salt and pepper chips nice? I’d love to try them
You won’t ever go back to ‘normal’ chips 🤤

Mixed sweet and sour balls (chicken, pork and prawns)
